U.S. Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs Bureau of Justice Assistance Bulletproof Vest Partnership PROGRAM FACT SHEET History The BulletproofVest Partnership (BVP), created by the Bulletproof-Vest Partnership Grant Act of1998 (Public Law 105-181) and reauthorized by the BVP Act of2000 (Public Law106-517), is a unique U.S. Department of Justice initiative designed to provide a critical resource to state and local law enforcement. Since 1999, over 11,500 jurisdictions have participated in the BVP Program, with $118 million in federal funds committed to support the purchase of an estimated 450,000 vests. The Office of Justice Programs' Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) administers the BVP Program. Eligibility Eligible jurisdictions include general purpose units of local government such as cities, counties, parishes, and municipalities; federally recognized Indian Tribes; the 50 states; the District of Columbia; American Samoa; Guam; the Northern Mariana Islands; Puerto Rico; and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Eligible law enforcement officers for BVP Program purposes include police officers; sheriff deputies; cojtectional officers; parole and probation agents; prosecutors; and judicial officials. Funding BVP funds up to 50 percent ofthe cost of each vest purchased or replaced by law enforcement applicants. Only vest models that comply 'IIIith the requirements of the Office of Justice Programs' National Institute of Justice (NIJ) may be purchased with BVP Program funds. The BVP Act of 1998 requires that at least half of all appropriated funds support applications from jurisdictions vvith populations under 100,000 people. \Mien the BVP Program was reauthorized for an additional three years (FY 2002-2004), a new allocation principle required funding the full 50 percent of requested vest needs for applications from jurisdictions under 100,000, with any remaining funds available for applications from jurisdictions over 100,000 people. Vest Selection In November 2003, Attorney General John Ashcroft announced a Body Armor Safety Initiative in response to the failure of a bullet-resistant vest worn by a police officer in Pennsylvania. NIJ was directed to initiate an examination of Zylon -based bullet-resistant vests (both new and used) and to review the existing program byv.tlich bullet-resistant vests are tested to determine if the program.needs modification. Having co"jfleted i~s!at est phase of ballistic. and m~chanical properties ~e:ting, _N IJ has determined that used Zylon - contam1ng vests may not provtde the mtended level of balhsttc resistance. In response to this determination, N IJ has issued a body armor standard advisory notice concerning ZylonliJ, and has issued new interim requirements for its body armor compliance testing program that will become effective on September 26, 2005. Until the effective date of the interim requirements, jurisdictions that participate in the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Program Fact Sheet

OJP Bulletproof Vest Partnership and the Body Armor Safety Initiative: Home Page Page 2 of3 efforts to improve officer safety. beginning with FY 2011, in order to receive BVP funds. jurisdictions must certify, during the application process. that all law enforcement agencies benefitting from the BVP Program have a written "mandatory wear" policy in effect. This policy must be in place for at least all uniformed officers before any FY 2011 funding can be used by the agency. There are no requirements regarding the nature of the policy other than it being a mandatory wear policy for all uniformed officers while on duty. BJA strongly encourages agencies to consult the International Association of Chiefs of Police's Model Policy on Body Armor and to strongly consider all recommendations within that policy. This policy change was announced in October 2010 by Attorney General Holder after consulting with and receiving ----------input from~the-law-enforcement~community-. --------------------- The IACP has very generously provided both its Body Armor Model Policy and position paper to the BVP program. In order to obtain a copy of the Model Policy and position paper, jurisdictions must be registered with the BVP program. To obtain a copy of the Model Policy, contact the BVP Customer Support Center at 1-877-758-3787 or email vests@usdoj.gov. For additional information regarding this new BVP program requirement, click here. BVP 50% Match Waiver: Jurisdictions with 2009 and 2010 BVP award funds may request a financial hardship waiver during the payment request process and receive up to 100% of the cost of each vest submitted for reimbursement. Previously, a jurisdiction was only able to request up to 50% the cost of a vest with their available BVP funds. Jurisdictions requesting a waiver of the 50% match requirement may not use BVP funds toward the purchase of any vest with a total unit cost greater than $1,200; excluding taxes, shipping and handling fees (if any) to maximize funding for all eligible jurisdictions. All standard BVP vest requirements apply to the eligible vest types. Additionally, jurisdictions requesting a waiver have to meet criteria of financial or natural disaster hardship. The jurisdictions have to cite the source of their financial hardship during the waiver request process. Jurisdictions will be expected to keep documentation substantiating the financial hardship for four years and realize the waiver requests are open to Bureau of Justice Assistance and Office of the Inspector General audits. Finally, all applicant jurisdictions. requesting a waiver of the 50% match, are required to certify that the. jurisdiction's Chief Executive Officer formally accepts the request for the waiver and confirms the waiver justification provided. The certification must list the highest elected official from the requesting jurisdiction in order to be approved. Notice - Check Prior Year BVP Funds: Prior to completing an application for FY 2011 BVP funds, it is strongly recommended that prior year participants log into the BVP system and check for prior year BVP fund balances and the "de-obligation date"/use expiration date for each year's funds. In some instances the use of prior year funds had been extended. All "Requests for Payments" must be submitted to the BVP system on or before the "de-obligation date" or the funds will be considered expired and will no longer be available.
