Program: Department Intelligence Center

Function

Prior to FY 2004, criminal intelligence and information was spread among various programs. The Utah Criminal Intelligence Center (UCIC) consolidates criminal intelligence information into one program for better access. It serves as a central clearinghouse of information for law enforcement. UCIC maintains the Utah Law Enforcement Information Network (ULEIN) which provides intelligence on criminal persons, organizations and businesses. It also provides agencies with case and evidence management systems. Vehicle and license plate information is also available.

UCIC also provides and maintains an intelligence web page which provides officers in the field with criminal case information, message boards, significant events calendars, and homeland security alerts, threats, and similar issues.

Program: CITS Bureau of Criminal Identification

Function

The Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) was established in 1927. To fulfill the required duties, BCI has been divided into seven sections. They are as follows:

  • The Record Section is responsible for entering data into the Utah Computerized Criminal History (UCCH) file of all submitted criminal arrests and the outcome of these arrests. Expungement eligibility is also determined by this section and upon issuing an Expungement Order, it is its responsibility to expunge the Utah record and forward all necessary paperwork to the FBI to assure the accuracy of an individual's record. Employment background checks for qualifying entities are also processed in this section. The UCCH database contains over one million arrest records.

  • The Fingerprint/AFIS Section verifies and classifies all fingerprints that are submitted to BCI whether for criminal or applicant purposes. BCI is a member of the Western Identification Network (WIN) which allows Utah agencies to access data from the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) consisting of seven western states, the California Department of Justice (CAL-DOJ) and the Washington State Police.

  • The Telecommunications/Quality Assurance Section operates as a 24x7x365 helpline for all criminal justice agencies statewide and across the country. BCI is the Control Terminal Agency for the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and the National Law Enforcement Telecommunications System (NLETS). This section also provides ongoing research into open arrest records and prosecution records in cooperation with the courts of Utah to assure record quality and reliability.

  • The Auditing and Training/Data Collection and Analysis Section is responsible for the training in the proper use of the Utah Criminal Justice Information System (UCJIS) files. Proficiency testing of all users and auditing agencies is also done by this section. The gathering and compiling of statewide statistics and producing the 'Crime in Utah Report' is performed by this section. BCI is the Missing Person Clearinghouse for Utah and resides within this section.

  • The Support Service Section assists citizens wishing to review or challenge their own Utah criminal record as well as processing all incoming mail and tending to the financial issues that are handled through the bureau.

  • The Investigations Section issues Private Investigator and Bail Enforcement Agent licenses. Investigations are also handled through the firearms section. Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW), Private Investigator and Bail Enforcement appeal boards are overseen by the Firearms staff. Employees of the Investigations Section work closely with firearms instructors/dealers to ensure state and federal laws are followed.

  • The Firearms Section conducts background checks on individuals wishing to purchase a firearm. Additional research is conducted on those individuals missing data on their criminal record. Background checks are also conducted on those wishing to obtain a Concealed Weapon Permit. Permits are created after an individual passes the required background check. This section is also responsible for the suspensions and revocations of concealed permits.

Statutory Authority

BCI has statutory authority as outlined in UCA 53-10-201 and bureau duties are outlined in UCA 53-10-202.

Program: CITS State Crime Labs

Function

The State Crime Labs deals with evidence related to crimes and crime scenes for agencies throughout the state. Trace evidence includes even the smallest quantity of such materials as hair, fiber, glass, paint, and explosives. Equipment involved, such as high intensity microscopes and imaging systems, is both expensive and highly technical. This type of equipment is beyond the capacity of most local law enforcement agencies. Sexual assault protocols have been established and provided to doctors and nurses in emergency rooms throughout the state to preserve and protect the evidence needed in such cases. DNA testing is now done on state-of-the-art instrumentation.

Program: Highway Patrol - Administration

Function

The largest unit of the Department of Public Safety is the Utah Highway Patrol. The overall goal of the Utah Highway Patrol is to protect life and property by preventing traffic accidents and to facilitate the traffic flow on the highways of the state (UCA 53-8).

The Highway Patrol is organized into subdivisions which include: Administration, Field Operations, Commercial Vehicles, Motor Vehicle Safety Inspections, Federal Projects, Protective Services, Special Services, Special Enforcement, and Technical Services.

Command responsibility for the Utah Highway Patrol rests with a superintendent under the general direction of the Commissioner of Public Safety. Personnel assigned to Administration are primarily responsible for the overall management and direction of the Highway Patrol. The office accepts responsibility for records management, public information and education, and division planning.

In recent years, UHP has been expanding the use of laptop technology to streamline field reporting processes and records management systems so troopers can spend more time on the road.

Program: Highway Patrol - Field Operations

Function

Field Operations is organized into five field bureaus. The bureaus are set up on a geographical basis. Each field bureau is commanded by a captain and divided into sections with each section commanded by a lieutenant. A section may be further divided into districts.

The officers patrol the major highways within the state and are responsible for police traffic services. This program provides some 24-hour coverage in the counties situated along the Wasatch Front. All other counties are patrolled during peak traffic periods. Officers are on call to respond at any time to an emergency. The Analyst notes that there are hours within each day that many of the state's highways effectively have no coverage from the Highway Patrol.

The patrol has a number of motorcycles that are effectively used in heavy traffic conditions where access to accidents is limited. In Utah, such vehicles can be used as much as eight months of the year.

Program: Highway Patrol - Commercial Vehicle

Function

Major responsibilities of the Commercial Vehicles program are weighing commercial vehicles and safety inspections of vehicles that don't necessarily pass through the State's Ports of Entry. Many of the checks are done with the element of surprise in as much as they have portable scale units that can be moved to any location in the state. Other responsibilities of the Commercial Vehicle program include monitoring and responding to hazardous materials incidents, ensuring compliance with Public Service Commission regulations, and detecting the abuse and trafficking of alcohol and drugs.

Program: Highway Patrol - Federal Projects

Function

The Federal Projects program funds one-time or special expenditures of the Utah Highway Patrol with federal funds. These projects include such items as overtime paid on holidays, highway speed control, community traffic safety, fatigued drivers prevention, alcohol/drug prevention, seat belt demos, and equipment purchases. Because the federal funds are often initially received by another agency and then passed to Public Safety they may appear as transfer funds in budget documentation.

Program: Highway Patrol - Technology Services

Function

The mission of the Utah Highway Patrol is to provide quality police services. The increased use of technological systems is helping to meet this goal through long-term cost savings and increased efficiency. The Mobile Data Collection System (MDCS) provides troopers with a more effective method of collecting and managing information on incidents and reduces the amount of time spent on each situation. Cellular Digital Packet Data (CDPD) provides troopers immediate access to state and federal computerized information such as National Crime Information Center (NCIC), statewide warrants, driver license files, and motor vehicle registration records. The use of notebook computers in patrol cars provides a means whereby troopers can perform their duties in a more efficient and cost effective manner.

Program: Fire Marshall - Fire Operations

Function

The major activities of the Fire Marshal's office are conducted in this program. This budget funds the operations of the arson investigation, fire code enforcement, liquefied petroleum gas, portable fire extinguishers, automatic suppression systems, and Utah Fire Incident Reporting System.

One of the major areas of responsibility of the Fire Prevention program is fire code enforcement for approximately 9,055 public-owned buildings throughout the state. Included in this group are most schools, some nursing homes, some hospitals, jails and penal institutions.

The State Fire Marshal provides a level of expertise often lacking in many local fire and police departments in the state. The office assists any department having trouble identifying the fire origin and cause. Numerous training classes are held to educate fire fighters and law enforcement officers in their ability to be able to recognize the "red flags" of arson.

The Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Laws must be enforced throughout the state and the office inspects about 550 sites and testing and certifying over 1,100 dispensing units.

In addition to the previously mentioned responsibilities, the State Fire Marshal's office recognizes a primary responsibility of educating the public concerning fire prevention. Most of the education is provided through the school system, but the Fire Marshal provides training for local fire agencies as well as local seminars and public meetings.

Program: Fire Marshall - Fire Fighter Training

Function

The Firefighter Training program funds contractual firefighting training at Utah Valley University for the training of the state's 240+ fire departments and over 5,800 fire fighters. (Over 90 percent are volunteers.)

The Firefighter Training School is physically located at Utah Valley University in Orem and at the Provo airport. Such training requires specialized areas where live fire fighting training can be conducted with relative safety to the community.

This training helps ensure that firefighters are properly trained to handle any fire disaster that might occur in the state. During the 1993 General Session of the Legislature, a tax on property insurance premiums was enacted to establish a funding source for a fire academy in the state. These funds are deposited into a restricted fund for training firefighters. Utah Valley University currently offers training for firefighters throughout the state.
