The Delegation of Immigration Authority, Section 287(g) of the Immigration <br />and Nationality Act (INA) program allows a state or local law enforcement entity to enter into a <br />partnership with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), under a joint Memorandum of Agreement <br />(MOA), to receive delegated authority for immigration enforcement within their jurisdictions. <br />SHSP, UASI, or OPSG grant funds may be requested and may be approved on a case -by -case basis for <br />immigration enforcement training in support of the border security mission. Requests for training will be <br />evaluated on a case -by -case basis and can only be used for certification in the section 287(g) program <br />provided by DHS/ICE. SHSP, UASI, or OPSG subrecipients with agreements under section 287(g) of the <br />INA (8 U.S.C. § 1357(g)) to receive delegated authority for immigration enforcement within their <br />jurisdictions may also be reimbursed for section 287(g) related operational activities with approval from <br />FEMA on a case -by -case basis. For OPSG, subrecipients must be authorized by USBP Headquarters and <br />Sectors, and operational activities must be coordinated through a USBP Sector. <br />Regional Border Projects (OPSG) <br />Recipients are encouraged to prioritize the acquisition and development of regional projects on the <br />borders to maximize interoperability and coordination capabilities among federal agencies and with state, <br />local, and tribal law enforcement partners. Such regional projects include: <br />• Communications equipment; <br />• Radio systems and repeaters; <br />• Integration with regional intelligence and information sharing effort (i.e., fusion centers): <br />o Intelligence analysts. <br />• Situational Awareness equipment: <br />o License Plate Reader Networks; <br />o Visual detection and surveillance systems; <br />o Sensor Systems; <br />o Radar Systems (for air and/or marine incursions); and <br />o Aircraft systems (manned or unmanned). <br />Critical Emergency Supplies (SHSP and UASI) <br />Critical emergency supplies, such as shelf stable products, water, and medical equipment and supplies are <br />an allowable expense under SHSP and UASI.

FEMA will provide program oversight and technical <br />assistance as it relates to the purchase of critical emergency supplies under UASI. FEMA will establish <br />guidelines and requirements for the purchase of these supplies under UASI and monitor development and <br />status of the state' s i n v e n t o r y m a n a g e m e n t p l a n. <br />���Nos��. e <br />��� <br />FEMA HSGP Appendix 12023 Page A-16 <br />
