Description:

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is an agency within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) whose primary mission is to save lives, prevent injuries and reduce economic costs due to road traffic crashes, through education, research, safety standards, and enforcement activity. This is accomplished by setting and enforcing safety performance standards for motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment as well as fuel economy standards, investigating safety defects in motor vehicles, conducting research on driver behavior and traffic safety, and providing grants to State and local governments to enable them to conduct effective local highway safety programs.

The primary purpose of this contract is to provide technical assistance for traffic safety law enforcement for the NHTSA Regional Offices and to communicate and assist in the implementation of NHTSA national priorities and programs. This assistance is for specific regional offices, and the State partners that they serve, particularly the State Highway Safety Offices and their law enforcement partners.

The objective is to provide a Law Enforcement Liaison (LEL) for Region 6 to offer technical assistance and support for traffic safety law enforcement outreach through coordination and cooperation with the National Law Enforcement Liaison funding and State LEL operations. The overall objective of the LEL program is the following:

· Encouraging law enforcement agencies to increase and expand NHTSA national priorities and programs, especially high visibility enforcement, across the year.

· Encouraging agencies to improve their ability to plan and execute enforcement based on a data-driven approach of knowing where and when motor vehicle crashes and fatalities occur.

· Supporting States in organizing and conducting law enforcement-related events related to crackdowns and mobilizations at the State or local level.

· Obtaining, compiling, and organizing data for presentation to NHTSA.

· Regular reporting to the NHTSA Regional office and Headquarters on workload indicators and performance metrics established by the agreement with the contractor/LEL.
