The Department of Justice Community Oriented Policing Program awarded the Nebraska State Patrol $1.475 million on October 1, 2025, under the COPS Anti-Methamphetamine Program (CFDA 16.072) to investigate illicit activities related to methamphetamine manufacture and distribution, including precursor diversion, clandestine laboratories, and methamphetamine trafficking operations.

The award funds the State Patrol's investigative operations in Lincoln, Nebraska over a three-year period through September 30, 2028. The COPS Anti-Methamphetamine Program makes competitive grants to state law enforcement agencies in states with high seizures of precursor chemicals, finished methamphetamine, laboratories, and laboratory dump sites. The State Patrol is responsible for submitting semiannual programmatic performance reports and quarterly financial reports, with a final closeout report at award conclusion. The program permits extensions of up to 12 additional months beyond the initial three-year term on a case-by-case basis when approved by the COPS Office Director.

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.
