B. Use of Shared Funds
Except as noted in this Guide, Program participants shall use equitably shared funds for law enforcement
purposes only("permissible uses"). If an agency is unsure whether a proposed expenditure is
permissible,it should email IpL - J-�$ ��,
�5 JLrq& La�gs ,9j,gqy for justice fund expenditures or
c�Lr�jgtry.,,goy for Treasury fund expenditures.
-1
Agencies may use equitably shared funds for any permissible agency expenditure, and both sworn and
non-sworn law enforcement personnel may use them. The fact that equitable sharing derives from
property forfeited by a particular agency unit or as a result of a particular federal violation does not
limit its use to purchases only for that unit or to further investigations only for that particular federal
violation. If an agency wishes to support a multi-agency expenditure,such as a new payroll system or
city municipal building,with a non-law enforcement agency,the law enforcement agency's costs based on
its use may be calculated on a pro rata basis.
1. Permissible Uses
a. Law enforcement administrative costs—Administrative costs that further the agency's
law enforcement goals or missions. Examples include recruitment and advertisement
costs,agency accreditation,banking and equitable sharing account maintenance fees,or
agency membership dues. Memberships and dues for an individual are impermissible. See
`sgcftqLi
b. Law enforcement training and education—Training of agency personnel,including
investigators,prosecutors, and sworn and non-sworn law enforcement personnel, in any
area necessary to perform official law enforcement duties,provided that the employees'
regular duties require knowledge of these topics. Examples include training and conference
registration fees,tuition, speaker fees,or costs to produce training curricula on topics such as
serving as a canine handler, narcotics detection, defensive tactics, criminal justice,languages,
constitutional law,accounting and finance, or forensics. Agencies may not pay for training
expenses of non-agency personnel. See
Agencies may not donate or transfer funds to associations or organizations providing training.
c. Law enforcement,public safety,and detention facilities—Purchase, lease, or operation of
law enforcement,public safety,or detention facilities used or managed by the recipient agency.
Examples include the costs of leasing, furnishing,and paying utilities for law enforcement
facilities.
Treasury shared funds may also be used to pay costs associated with the construction,
expansion,or improvement of law enforcement facilities,regardless of the size or scope of the
project. Examples include new HVAC equipment,paving projects, security fencing, paint and
carpeting,or construction materials related to construction projects.
Justice shared funds may NOT be used to pay costs associated with the construction,
expansion,or improvement of law enforcement facilities, regardless of the size or scope of the
project. See Section V.13.2.m.
