The grant provides total reimbursement to local <br />agencies for equipment purchases and training approved and authorized by <br />the federal Office of Domestic Preparedness. <br />To expedite the enhancement of domestic preparedness, it was mutually <br />agreed that Santa Ana UASI would be the lead agency in retaining a <br />consultant to prepare a Strategic Plan and to purchase Personal Protective <br />Equipment and the Anaheim UASI would provide partial funding for these <br />expenditures. This type of inter-agency leveraging of procurement <br />resources has been encouraged as an efficient strategy for expending <br />program funds by the federal Department of Homeland Security. <br />20A -1 <br />
