Agreement No. 77620
The dispute resolution process provided for in Chapter 2260 of the Texas Government

provisions of Chapter 2260, subchapter B, are being invoked. A copy of the notice
shall also be given to all other representatives of TEEX and the Subrecipient

case proceeding under Chapter 2260, subchapter C, of the Government Code.

to Chapter 2260, as currently effective, hereafter enacted or subsequently amended.

for the suspension of performance by the Subrecipient, in whole or in part.

counterclaim and conducting any negotiations related thereto as required under
§2260.052 of H.B. 826 of the 76th Texas Legislature shall be Arturo Alonzo, TEEX

Soon after June 20, 2003 the senior elected official of each jurisdiction receiving a grant
will receive a letter announcing the total grant amount along with the amount of the total
for local needs and the amount of the total for regional improvement. A subrecipient
award agreement will be sent to the jurisdiction's point of contact. Thirty days after
receipt of the award letter the jurisdiction will be expected to return a signed copy of the
SUBRECIPI ENT AGREEMENT to TEEX Starting on June 30 those jurisdictions that
have inputted their shipping address on the TEXASDPA site will be allowed to begin
building the jurisdiction's equipment lists on the TEXASDPA and the Prime Vendor
Websites. An equipment list, approved by the COG and by the Office for Domestic
Preparedness is a requirement to begin drawdown of grant funds.
Step 1: Building an Equipment List
All jurisdictions will create the proposed equipment purchase list for Council of
Governments and Office for Domestic Preparedness (ODP) approval on-line. The use
of the on-line sites for creating the proposed list does not obligate the jurisdiction to a
specific method of procurement. Jurisdictions retain the choice of purchasing methods
they will use to procure the equipment after ODP approves the list.
Two websites for list building — both will be used to create a list:
Vehicles, pharmaceuticals, physical security equipment, and specialized items, Houston
Galveston Area Council of Governments Cooperative Purchasing Program items will be
selected at www.texasdpa,com.
All other equipment will be selected at the Prime vendor site; www.fishersei.com
Select items on the TEXASDPA Site
2. Indicate on the TEXASDPA Site that list is finished
3. Select items on the Prime Vendor Site
4. Indicate on the Prime Vendor Site that list is finished
5. Completed lists are merged on the TEXASDPA Site

The lists created on the Prime Vendor and TEXASDPA Site will be merged on the
TEXASDPA Site. Each jurisdiction reviews the merged list on the TEXASDPA Site for
the following;
6. Amount of projected purchases is not over or substantially under the grant
amount
7. Equipment list is accurate
8. Adjust the list if necessary
9. Quantities may be changed on the TEXASDPA Site to bring the amount of
projected purchases in agreement with the grant amount
10. Jurisdictions must return to the Prime Vendor Site, or TEXASDPA equipment
list section to add items that are not on the merged list.
11. Lists will be updated every Monday on the TEXASDPA Site
Step 3: The review process
12. When a jurisdiction is satisfied with their list they will submit it on the
TEXASDPA Website for review.
13. The jurisdiction's Council of Governments will be able to review and approve
or disapprove the list on-line after the jurisdiction submits the list.
14. Disapproved lists will require the jurisdiction to make changes in the same
manner they used during the list creation process.
15. Approved lists will be automatically forwarded to TEEX, the State
Administrative Agency for review and forwarding to ODP.
16, When ODP has approved the list and created a Grant Adjustment Notice
(GAN) the jurisdiction will be notified by TEEX that they may begin purchasing
equipment.
17, Jurisdictions will indicate the purchasing options they intend to use on the
i KI
Agreement No. 77620
Jurisdictions can only purchase equipment from one source at a time.
Jurisdictions using multiple purchasing options must follow the sequence below:
18. Non Prime Vendor items, to include all vehicles and other items with an
individual cost of over $25,000 must be purchased first. If a Jurisdiction is
planning on purchasing Non Prime Vendor items that cost over $25,000 from
both H -GAC and Local Purchase, they must purchase the H -GAC item first.
19. Inform TEEX that purchasing of Non Prime Vendor items through H -GAC is
complete. TEEX will then "freeze" the jurisdiction's H -GAC Account (as
related to this grant)
20. Inform TEEX that local procurement of equipment with an item cost of over
$25,000 is complete. TEEX will then activate the Prime Vendor Account for
the jurisdiction.
21. Complete ordering of equipment at the Prime Vendor Site
22. Inform TEEX that prime vendor ordering is complete. TEEX will then "freeze"
the jurisdiction's Prime Vendor Account.
23. Complete ordering of items with a unit cost of less than $25,000 that were not
available through the Prime Vendor Program from local purchase or H -GAC.
Each jurisdiction will follow the stated guidelines to ensure the accurate and prompt
purchase, receipt, payment and management of their equipment. These guidelines will
ensure proper equipment accountability. Guidelines are set forth to ensure proper
controls are in place for each jurisdiction.
Jurisdictions must provide a shipping address and designate a receiving point of contact
to be entered on www.texasdpa.com website. The jurisdiction, according to its own
policies and procedures, will be responsible for purchasing, receipt and inventory of
equipment purchased using State Homeland Security Grant funding. The jurisdiction
will be responsible for overseeing the equipment grant process for each purchasing
option. The jurisdiction point of contact will also be responsible for inventory of
W01

(Extracted from the Office for Domestic Preparedness Fiscal Year 2003 State Homeland Security Grant
Program, Program Guidelines and Application Kit)
Note: This provides broad guidance on authorized equipment. Much greater detail will be available on
the web sites referenced in the Statement of Work for list preparation.
The FY 2003 SHSGP authorized equipment list was derived from the Standardized
Equipment List (SEL). The SEL was developed by the Interagency Board (JAB) for
Equipment Standardization and Interoperability. The JAB compiled the SEL to delineate
the types of equipment necessary for terrorist incident response. Because the SEL also
contains lists of general use and support equipment, a more narrow list was derived
from the SEL to identify the specific types of specialized equipment authorized for
purchase under the.FY 2003 SHSGP. A cross-section of officials representing the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Public Health
Service, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Department of Energy,
and state and local CBRNE response experts assisted in the development of this
authorized equipment purchase list and in identifying unallowable items. Authorized
equipment purchases may be made in the following categories:
1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
2. Explosive Device Mitigation and Remediation Equipment
3. CBRNE Search & Rescue Equipment
4. Interoperable Communications Equipment
5. Detection Equipment
6. Decontamination Equipment
7. Physical Security Enhancement Equipment
8. Terrorism Incident Prevention Equipment
9. CBRNE Logistical Support Equipment
10. CBRNE Incident Response Vehicles
11. Medical Supplies and Limited Types of Pharmaceuticals
12. CBRNE Reference Materials

appropriate level of personal protective equipment. As a guide, Levels A, B, and C are
applicable for chemical/ biological/ radiological contaminated environments. Personnel
entering protective postures must undergo medical monitoring prior to and after entry.
All SCBAs should meet standards established by the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for occupational use by emer•-
