SUBJECT: Valley Narcotics Enforcement Team (VNET) /U.S. Department of Justice, Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) HIDTA Task Force Agreements
Narcotics and dangerous drugs have a detrimental effect on the health and well-being of not only the
Citizens in Federal Way,but all people throughout Washington and beyond. The US Department of
Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) formed a local Task Force to help stop the
trafficking of narcotics and dangerous drugs.
The Valley Narcotics Enforcement Team (VNET) was established to create and maintain a multi-
jurisdictional team to effectively investigate and enforce the laws relating to controlled substances.
This Agreement designates the equitable sharing which the law enforcement participating agencies
must acknowledge.
In reference to Appendix F,the Federal Way Police Department(FWPD)assigned a Commissioned
Officer to the DEA Task Force on February 8,2010 and FWPD entered into an Agreement with the
State and Local HIDTA for the reimbursement of overtime for the Officer. The attached appendix F
is a continuation of our efforts to control the trafficking of drugs. This Agreement is effective
October 1,2019 through September 30,2020 and reimburses FWPD for the Officer's overtime up to
$18,649.00.
