FY2017 Port Security Grant Program

FY2017 Port Security Grant Program

The proposed project involves funding seven security-related projects for the Fiscal Year 2017 Port Security Grant Program. On September 21, 2017, the Department of Homeland Security awarded the District and Harbor Police Department $1,228,017 in funding for various district and HPD projects through its Port Security Grant Program. All Port Security Grant Program Projects for FY17 were selected to help protect critical port infrastructure from terrorism and to increase maritime domain awareness around the San Diego Bay. Patrol Vessel Maintenance, patrol vehicle radios, SCUBA Diver Team Equipment, emergency management program, multi-factor authentication program, network segmentation program, and cyber threat intelligence program. Construction of the security-related projects is anticipated to commence in late 2017 or early 2018, and must be completed no later than August 2020. Due to its nature and limited scope, construction of the security-related projects would generate a minor amount of vehicle trips, and in turn, would not result in impacts including, but not limited to, air quality, GHG emissions, hazards materials, or noise. Furthermore, the district would be responsible for complying with all applicable federal, state, and local laws regulating construction demolition debris, hazards and hazardous materials, noise, and stormwater.
