The Department of Justice Community Oriented Policing Program awarded the Mississippi Department of Public Safety $1,992,784 on October 1, 2025, under the COPS Anti-Methamphetamine Program (CFDA 16.072) to locate and investigate illicit methamphetamine manufacturing and distribution activities within the state.

Performance runs through September 30, 2028, with work performed in Jackson, Mississippi. The award supports the State Highway Patrol's law enforcement investigation efforts targeting precursor chemical diversion, clandestine laboratories, and methamphetamine traffickers in a state designated as having high seizure activity for precursor chemicals, finished methamphetamine, and laboratory seizures.

Recipients must submit semiannual programmatic performance reports and quarterly federal financial reports. The COPS Office monitors compliance through site visits, office-based reviews, and surveys to verify nonsupplanting requirements, programmatic and financial adherence, and progress toward community policing objectives. Award extensions beyond the initial three-year term are considered case-by-case for up to 12 additional months when requested before the end date.

The purpose of the cops anti-methamphetamine program (CAMP) is to advance public safety by providing funds to investigate illicit activities related to the manufacture and distribution of methamphetamine. Funding under this award program will be used by the state law enforcement agency to locate and investigate such illicit activities.
