Problem Statement
Identify the problem in your community that the grant funded program will address. Be very specific and include
statistical data (with citations) to define the severity of the identified problems. Response is limited to 700 words.
The City of Buckeye has experienced an increase in drug offenses since 2022, increasing from 203 recorded
offenses to 274 offenses in 2025. Additionally, violent crimes against people have increased from 780 recorded
incidents in 2022 to 832 incidents in 2025 (Crime and Annual Reports | City of Buckeye).
Buckeye seeks to reduce these numbers but has been unsuccessful due to the rapid population growth, the lack of
available sworn personnel, and budget constraints.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), and the Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) consistently report that the majority of fentanyl, heroin, methamphetamine, and
cocaine entering the United States from Mexico is smuggled through land ports of entry concealed in passenger
vehicles (CBP: America’s Front Line Against Fentanyl | U.S. Customs and Border Protection). This method is
widely recognized as a lower-risk approach for traffickers due to the sheer volume of daily crossings and the
logistical challenges of inspecting every vehicle.
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics reported approximately 94.4 million passenger vehicle crossings from
Mexico into the United States in 2025. Of those crossings, Arizona historically accounts for approximately 10-12%,
equating to roughly 10.4 million vehicles entering through Arizona ports of entry annually. California accounts for
approximately 35-36%, or roughly 33.5 million vehicles (Border Crossing Data Annual Release: 2025 | Bureau of
Transportation Statistics).
In FY 2024, approximately 458,000 pounds of illicit drugs were seized along the Southwest border, according to
CBP (Drug Seizure Statistics | U.S. Customs and Border Protection). Because total undetected trafficking cannot
be directly measured, analysts often model potential overall flow using assumed interdiction rates. Research
literature frequently suggests only a fraction of total trafficking is interdicted, with illustrative ranges often cited in
the single-digit to low-teens percentages and broader analytical scenarios extending up to approximately 20%.
Using this type of scenario modeling, the total volume of illicit narcotics entering U.S. markets could plausibly range
from roughly 2.3 million to 9.2 million pounds annually.
Federal assessments consistently identify the Phoenix metropolitan area as a major transportation and distribution
hub within the Southwest corridor due to the southernmost transcontinental east-west Interstate 10 (I-10), which
runs from California to Florida. Given Arizona’s recognized role as a significant trafficking pathway, it is reasonable
to infer that a substantial portion of narcotics moving through the Southwest border region transits through the
broader Phoenix area. While precise totals cannot be quantified, scenario modeling suggests the regional flow
could represent a meaningful share of overall trafficking volume.
The City of Buckeye is uniquely positioned within this corridor environment due to the presence of (I-10), a primary
east-west national freight route, and State Route 85, which provides a direct connection between Interstate 10 and
the Lukeville Port of Entry (approximately 115 miles south of Buckeye). These transportation routes create a natural
pathway for both legitimate commerce and illicit trafficking activity moving toward the Phoenix metropolitan area
and beyond.
The Buckeye Police Department (BPD) has networked with Border Patrol Intel Analysts who send intel to BPD
regarding vehicles suspected of smuggling illicit drugs. Since being added to these notifications, Border Patrol has
been sending to BPD an average of 5-10 notices per week. There are often vehicles traveling from California
through Buckeye utilizing SR-85. 
During February 10-12, 2026, BPD, Apache County Sheriff, and Glendale PD conducted an interdiction on SR-85.
Based on the intel received from Border Patrol, this task force made arrests and confiscated drugs, in which the
motive appeared to be related to political priorities. Currently, there is no other law enforcement agency, including
federal, state, or local, that is working on drug enforcement efforts on SR-85. This is similar to I-10, at least in
Maricopa County; however, La Paz County does have a unit that works on I-10 in western Arizona that is very
successful. 
SR-85 running through Buckeye sees daily cross-country travel. BPD learned during the above interdiction that
while there are large quantities of illicit drugs being delivered through Buckeye, the Buckeye area would also see
significant cross-country trafficking, specifically for transit from Los Angeles to destination cities in southern Texas,
such as San Antonio, Austin, and Houston.

Project Summary
Provide a summary of the program the ACJC grant funds will support. Include how the program addresses the
problem in the community, what services are provided, the population served, why it is important and how it is
unique. Response is limited to 700 words.
Based on the factors mentioned in the Problem Statement section, targeted interdiction within Buckeye represents
a proactive, intelligence-informed approach to disrupting narcotics trafficking along established transportation
corridors. Concentrating enforcement resources in areas with high traffic volume and direct connectivity to an
international port of entry increases the probability of identifying trafficking activity, enhances officer awareness of
corridor-related criminal trends, and supports broader regional public-safety objectives.
The Buckeye Police Department (BPD) proposes the establishment of a drug enforcement task force consisting of
two (2) sworn Detectives and one (1) Civilian Intelligence Analyst. Also, Buckeye is in discussions with the City of
Glendale to form a collaborative Drug Enforcement task force. These new task forces will focus on targeted
interdiction within the West Valley and Buckeye to disrupt narcotics trafficking.
One of the focus areas is thoroughfares commonly exploited by smugglers due to lower perceived enforcement
risks compared to air, rail, or maritime travel. Notably, SR-85 and I-10 serve as key distribution routes connecting
the Southwest border to major markets in the Northeast, Midwest, and Southeast United States. SR-85 originates
at the U.S./Mexico border in Lukeville, a crossing that experienced a significant increase in border crossings since
2020, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. While the vast majority of these crossings are legitimate,
the increase in volume complicates the efforts of the U.S. Border Patrol to detect criminal activity, which can easily
travel northward along SR-85’s 20.5 miles within Buckeye’s jurisdiction. Interstate 10, Arizona’s most traveled
freeway, passes through Metro Phoenix and Tucson—two urban centers strongly linked to the Sinaloa Cartel and
other trafficking organizations. (Bureau of Transportation Statistics Border Crossing Data).
One compelling example of interdiction’s effectiveness is the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing case. Timothy McVeigh,
later identified as the perpetrator, was first arrested by an Oklahoma State Trooper during a routine traffic stop for
an unrelated firearm offense. The trooper’s interdiction skills directly contributed to solving a domestic terror case
that resulted in 168 deaths. This case highlights the critical role that well-trained patrol officers can play in
intercepting high-impact threats during routine enforcement activity.
 
A local event, occurring in March of 2025, illustrates the need for additional drug enforcement activity. During a
routine traffic stop conducted by Buckeye Police, the BPD officer pulled over a driver due to various civil traffic
violations, including failure to stop at a stop sign. After the driver denied having any weapons, a revolver fell out of
the vehicle as the driver was departing the vehicle. During a vehicle search, 1.3 pounds of heroin,
methamphetamine, and 100 fentanyl pills were found in the vehicle. Currently, BPD does not have the required
sworn staff, nor the budget, to pursue more interdiction that is believed to be needed.
 
The new drug enforcement task force would be selected based on their experience, productivity, and demonstrated
performance. Their core mission would be to conduct drug enforcement with a focus on identifying indicators of
criminal enterprise activity. This would bring significant advantages to the BPD and the Metro Phoenix community,
as set forth:
1. Public Safety Impact: Interdicting drugs and currency at the source helps limit local street-level distribution and
associated crime.
2. Cartel Disruption: Seizing illicit currency/drugs enroute to laundering and distribution operations deals a
financial/operational blow to organized crime networks.
3. Partnership Building: A trained interdiction unit enhances multi-jurisdictional ability to collaborate with federal and
regional agencies.
4. Funds: The illegal drug trade in the United States is a substantial and complex underground economy. While
precise figures are challenging to determine due to the clandestine nature of these activities, estimates suggest that
the annual value of the U.S. illegal drug market ranges between $200 billion and $750 billion. The interdicting of
such funds allows an avenue for public safety organizations to utilize the seized funds under the Racketeer
Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO- 18 U.S. Code §§ 1961–1968).

Project Collaboration
Programs must demonstrate a strong collaborative effort in each of these areas: law enforcement, prosecution,
service providers, community organizations and other social service agencies. List the public and private
organizations your agency collaborates with in connection with your grant (excluding participating agencies already
identified in the 'General Information' section). Response is limited to 600 words.
The Buckeye Police Department (BPD) is currently in the process of standing up a new drug enforcement task
force with the Glendale Police Department (GPD) to conduct concentrated enforcement activities along established
transportation corridors. Since this collaborative task force is still in the creation process, there is no
Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) available at this time, but one is expected to be created soon. The IGA will
outline BPD’s and GPD’s task force efforts with the common goals and objectives of drug interdiction within each
department’s jurisdiction.
In addition to the IGA, both BPD and GPD have Real-Time Intelligence Centers (RTIC) that are equipped with
state-of-the art technology that enables law enforcement personnel to gather information and investigate drug
trafficking leads. BPD actively shares intel received in the RTIC with neighboring jurisdictions so that those
jurisdictions can be on the lookout for the perpetrators. BPD also participates with the West Valley Real-Time Crime
Center, which consists of Buckeye, Glendale, Tolleson, Surprise, and Wickenburg.  
Additionally, there is an IGA between Maricopa County, the City of Avondale, the City of Goodyear, and the City of
Buckeye. The IGA was established to create a task force whose primary objective is to combat sex trafficking.
According to the IGA, “The mission of the task force is to identify, locate, and rescue victims of child and adult sex
trafficking by conducting undercover operations and investigations, while also providing resources to victims and
apprehending offenders.” The sex trafficking task force IGA demonstrates collaborative efforts between law
enforcement, service providers, prosecution, and other social service agencies since victims are provided
resources to recover from the crimes that were committed against them. The drug enforcement task force IGA,
which is being created with GPD, is anticipated to include similar language since BPD and GPD are currently in the
process of identifying service providers and other social service agencies. BPD anticipates that these two task
forces may collaborate due to drug trafficking activities being linked to sex trafficking activities.
Regarding prosecution, BPD works closely with the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office (MCAO) in all cases that are
sent to MCAO. BPD and MCAO have a long track record of successful investigations and prosecutions of violent
crimes, including crimes involving drugs.
BPD is also currently receiving national opioid settlement funding as a pass-through from Maricopa County. On a
quarterly basis, agencies within Maricopa County, such as Buckeye, Glendale, Goodyear, Surprise, Tolleson,
Avondale, etc., meet to discuss actions being taken to combat the opioid crisis in each jurisdiction. BPD is currently
utilizing the opioid settlement funding to support a Civilian Investigator strictly dedicated to opioid related activities
within Buckeye. This Civilian Investigator will collaborate with the proposed drug enforcement task force.
BPD is taking a multi-faceted approach by conducting interdiction and arrests of perpetrators, while also aiding
victims of drug-related crimes. BPD anticipates backtracking on how crimes and drug abuse occurred. This grant
request includes mobile device data extraction software, which BPD will use on the backtracking investigations.
The grant request also includes personnel to conduct drug enforcement investigations and interdictions.
Evaluation Plan
How will you evaluate the effectiveness of the program activities? Please indicate how the results of program
evaluation activities have made, or will make an impact on the way the program provides services. Response is
limited to 700 words.
The City of Buckeye has experienced an increase in drug offenses since 2022, increasing from 203 recorded
offenses to 274 offenses in 2025. Additionally, violent crimes against people have increased from 780 recorded
incidents in 2022 to 832 incidents in 2025 (Crime and Annual Reports | City of Buckeye). BPD initially anticipates
an increase in drug-related arrests since the grant-funding supports three (3) personnel who will be a part of the
drug enforcement task force. The drug enforcement task force will focus solely on drug-related interdiction, arrests,
and drug confiscation. Due to the lack of sworn personnel and budget, BPD has been unable to aggressively follow
up on drug activity complaints.
In 2025, BPD made two (2) arrests related to the transportation of drugs and seventeen (17) arrests related to the
buying and selling of drugs. Even though BPD discovered and dismantled two (2) methamphetamine labs in 2024,
BPD did not discover any in 2025. In 2025, BPD disrupted one (1) illegal marijuana growing activity, one (1)
Psilocybin lab, and two (2) THC Conversion labs. BPD dismantled eight (8) drug trafficking organizations and one

Evaluation Plan
(1) money laundering organization in 2025. BPD anticipates evaluating the impact of these new activities by a
number of measurements. Data pre- and post- drug enforcement task force will be utilized to evaluate the
effectiveness of the drug enforcement task force and the grant-request mobile device data extraction software.
More specifically, BPD anticipates an increase in arrests, drug confiscations, and a timelier focus on drug activity
complaints and interdiction. The addition of this task force will increase drug enforcement activities by BPD by
approximately 6,300 man-hours per year. Additionally, the use of the requested mobile device data extraction
software can be used to double the impact on data and offender identification discovery.
Over time, the hope is to reduce drug-related crimes within Buckeye and the greater Phoenix region, as interdiction
efforts become more effective through the new drug-enforcement task force and data extraction software. However,
to reduce long-term negative impacts of drug-related activities, BPD will need to utilize the drug-enforcement task
force to increase arrests and interdiction activities. Adding the grant-requested drug-enforcement task force
enables BPD to provide a new drug enforcement service to address the growing drug crimes and interdict when
possible.

Goals and Objectives
The goal is to reduce drug-related crimes within Buckeye and the greater Phoenix region through the new
drug-enforcement task force’s interdiction efforts while utilizing state-of-the-art data extraction software.
However, to reduce long-term negative impacts of drug-related activities, BPD will need to utilize the
drug-enforcement task force and data extraction software to increase arrests and interdiction activities.
