Describe the nature and magnitude of the problem using valid, up-to-date statistical data. Identify which program area(s) have the greatest need, (i.e., impaired driving, occupant protection, speeding and aggressive driving, pedestrian safety, etc.). Indicate what is happening, when it is happening, where it is happening, and the contributing factors. ARIZONA GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF HIGHWAY SAFETY Grant Application for Law Enforcement Projects AL - Impaired Driving 4 of 13 Maricopa County is continuing to experience growth which has a significant impact on traffic related problems within the County. Along with the increase in population and the amount of roadways within the Sheriff's Office jurisdiction, MCSO is experiencing a high amount of vehicular traffic in contract towns and throughout Maricopa County. Traffic related collisions have increased as a result of the increase in population. The amount of alcohol and drug related fatal collisions have also increased over a period of time. In 2016, Maricopa County had 453 fatal collisions (181 w/alcohol) and in 2018, there were 467 fatal collisions (163 w/alcohol). Over a two year period, this is an increase of 3% with 9% decrease in alcohol related fatalities. Maricopa County is also the most densely populated county within Arizona with over 4 million residents. Detection and removal of impaired drivers from the roadways is critical; therefore, it is crucial to the safety of all the motorists driving on the roadways. The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office has an enormous responsibility to protect our community from impaired drivers by providing DUI and alcohol related traffic enforcement. Detection and removal of impaired drivers from roadways is a focal point and of paramount importance in the goal of providing safety to motorists driving throughout the County. Over the past few years statistics indicate law enforcement agencies throughout the nation, and within Maricopa County, have had difficulty in identifying and recruiting interested applicants for the job of law enforcement professional As a result, MCSO has experienced challenges filling staffing vacancies. Until recently personnel numbers have remained static in patrol, causing command to allow for less resource allocation specifically assigned solely to traffic enforcement. Increased efforts in recruitment in late 2019 and early 2020 have shown to be promising with staffing vacancies decreasing. As efforts continue and staffing allows, it is the goal of MCSO to implement a traffic unit focused on the enforcement of traffic laws and impaired driving. When patrol personnel are enforcing traffic laws related to impaired driving, it can take several hours to process a suspect in addition to time spent transporting to a jail. With a temporary reduction in volunteer support staff, MCSO is now relying on Detention Support to assist with booking, fingerprinting and prisoner transports to the jail facilities. This has allowed Deputy Sheriff's to return to patrol more rapidly, which improves visual presence and overall efficiency of Task Force Events. MCSO will continue to participate in DUI Patrols throughout the year with the East and West Valley DUI Task Forces. These events are effective as there are multiple agencies collaborating, along with specialized resources in DRE and Phlebotomy. Historically MCSO has used our Mobile Command Post on the Salt River, Lake Pleasant Park and Phoenix International Raceway. Maricopa County spans approximately 9,226 square miles and Command Post locations are as far away as 50 miles from County booking facilities. For improved efficiency, a mobile DUI Van and Booking Van has been utilized in an effort to aid participating law enforcement agencies in returning to patrol and enforcement activities.
