Butte County continues to feel the effects of the circumstances that established it as the "meth Capitol" of the U.S. some years ago. A large percentage of people placed on formal probation in the county have histories of involvement with methamphetamine use and trafficking. The B.A.S.S. project has continued to show success in apprehending and holding accountable those who continue in such involvement while detering others from rurther illegal activity. The team of Probation and Sheriff's officers will continue to concentrate on local and transfer in probationers with drug backgrounds as ~~ell as assisting the general Task Force and other local, state and federal enforcement and correctional agencies in anti-drug operations. The District Attorneys office will continue to conduct asset forfeiture on project arrestees. Forfeiture funds will be utilized to employ a second Deputy Sheriff in the program.

List all positions assigned to the project and indicate whether they are grant or county funded. A flow chart showing the chain of command of participating agencies may also be included. The narrative must describe the relationship between the ADA Steering Committee, the components. project staff and other participating agencies. The primary unit in the project is the B.A.S.S. team consisting of a probation officer III, a probation officer I or II, and two deputy sheriffs, all attached to the Interagency Narcotics Task Force. The probation officer III is in charge o~ the unit and works directly with the task force commander, who has responsibility for overall field operations in setting up work schedules and coordinating efforts. The probation officer III also reports to a supervising probation officer who has responsibility far selection of probationers for search and surveillance by the unit. The project manager and director oversee general operations and coordinate with the Sheriff. District Attorney, and other steering committee members on program goals and problem resolution. The office assistant II, stenographer clerk, two probation officers, and one deputy sheriff assigned to the B.A.S.S. unit are grant funded. The second deputy sheriff is funded- through asset forfeitures generated by the B.A.S.S. project. OFFICE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE PLANNING PROBLEM STATEMENT INSTRUCTIONS: Please address each segment separately by provfdfng narratives and statistical explanatfans describing (1) the drug problem mhfch is the focus of the proposed project (2) ham the implementation of the Anti-Drug Abuse Grants over the past three years has fmpacted the drug problem and (3) what is praposed for the 1893/94 ADA grant to combat the drug problem in yaux communfty. Be specific as to what strategies (i. e. special enforcement, special assignment) mere/are to be implemented and describe the linkages between the components and coordination faith other agencies. Use as many pages as necessary to fully support the need to continue funding this prafect. (1) Butte County continues to have significant drug problems. Contributary to this are the county's high unemployment and poverty rates. Over 70~ of the population receives some form of public assistance and the median family income is $13,800 lower than the state average. One of every four children falls in a classification of living in extreme poverty which is a rate 10~ higher than the national. There is a continuing unemployment rate of 20 to 25~ which is even greater than in South Central Los Angeles. The knowledge and tradition of illegal drug production and trafficking, which was previously established in Butte County, has also had a persistency similar to that experienced in past years, with respect to illegal vahiskey production in some areas of our southern states. (2) The project made possible by this grant is felt to have demonstratable value and success in several areas. During x.992, project officers were involved in a majority of the 29 closures of illegal methamphetamine labs in the county. Only Riverside County with several•tiz;ies the population and number of enforcement officers shut down more labs. Most of the labs are however, now much smaller and more portable than previously. The efforts of project officers and the rest of the Interagency Narcotics Task Force are felt to be the primary reason that long term, high production labs are now felt, by most traffickers, as being too risky to operate. A measure of success is also seen in the higher percentace of previously drug involved probationers naw remaining "clean" as evidenced through searches and testing by project officers. Inr"ormation received from probationers and others with involvement or contacts in the drug culture confirm that project operations have been influential in a number of drug traffickers either stopping or reducing their operations, or in same cases, moving out of the area. OFFICE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE PLANNING PROBLEM=STATEMENT PAGE 2 (3) It is felt, as described in the previous section, that the present strategies and operations of the project are having beneficial results. Discontinuance of the programs would almost certainly result in resurgence of large sale drug operations. Unless some new, break through methodology is developed, continuance of present strategies, combined with D.A.R.E, programs and other community avoidance and treatment resources, appear to offer the best tactics for "holding the line" and pushing back the drug abuse and trafficking that has so adversely impacted our society. The componets of our program have continued to work together well, Local law enforcement agencies, as well as state parole agencies and federal officers, including D.E.A., Immigration and Secret Service, have all been involved with project officers in a number of successful operations. The two project drug search dogs are frequently requested by various agencies in connection with arrests and search warrants where drugs are suspected. OFFICE OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE PLANNING ANTI-DRUG ABUSE PROGRAM ' PROBATION COi~'ONENT PROGRAM STRATEGIES, OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES STRATEGY 2: NARCOTICS TASi{ FORCE OCJP will provide funds to probation for the special assignment of probation officers on federal, state, regional, county or local narcotics task forces in order to act as a liasion between probation and law enforcement, and to assist in the surveillance, identification and apprehension of drug or drug-related probation violators. The assigned probation officer(s) should work full time on the narcotics task force and should not carry an additional supervisorial caseload. Objective 1_ During the grant year, assist law enforcement as measured by the number of: Projected FY 93/9 a) searches conducted, with law enforcement 300 b) drug or drug-related probationers identified during joint operations with law enforcement; 275 c) probationers taken into custody; and 7 5 d} probation revocations initiated. 75 INSTRUCTIONS: Describe the actfvitfes that tvfLt be implemented by the project to impact the stated objective and achieve the projected resutt(s}, Achievement of these projections Witt determine the pro,ject's effectiveness. Use additional pages to descrfbe actfvftfes. The project probation officers' primary functions will continue to be in probation, parole and warrant searches and related investi- gations of suspected drug offenders. They wil]. work closely with other officers assigned to the Task Force as well as local police agencies and state and federal agencies involved in anti-drug activities.

With the addition of an additional deputy to the operation, there has been an increase in the discovery of contraband and resultant arrests. Most arrests for warrants made by the unit result from such fugitives being discovered coincidental to regular unit operations and the number of such are not expected to have much change.
