FY 2016 Appropriation

The Investigative Services are headquartered in Salt Lake County. Services of the division, however, are statewide and are dictated by the crime and the local agencies' capacity, rather than by location.

  • Specialized support to multi-jurisdictional task force groups statewide;
  • Clandestine lab investigations and response;
  • Airport and common carrier interdiction (including passenger mail and freight);
  • Hotel/motel targeting of traveling criminals;
  • Statewide coordination of marijuana eradication efforts for federal, state, and local enforcement;
  • Initial and follow-up investigation of inter- or intra-state narcotic traffickers arrested by law enforcement agencies in Utah; and
