BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
(Executive Budget: pp. 431-434)

The Division of  State Police (DSP) is responsible for ensuring highway safety
and performing special and investigative police services throughout the State.
This agency is contained in the Public Protection and General Government
appropriation bill.

State Operations

The Executive recommends an All Funds appropriation of $382,978,000 which
reflects a year to year increase of $13,538,600.  The Executive proposes a 
General Fund increase of $13,242,200.  This increase reflects costs associated
with 4 new positions.

The increase provides for 5 additional staff to enhance wire-tapping 
technology and 11 additional staff to implement the project SWIFT Gun 
Interdiction Program.  Finally, the funding will support 30 new positions 
associated with the implementation of the Gun DNA Program.

Capital Projects

The Executive proposes a Capital Projects appropriation of $4,500,000, which 
reflects an increase of $1,800,000.  This increase is attributable to costs
associated with retrofitting one of three State helicopters which were
grounded by the Federal Aviation Administration.  The helicopter fleet
is used for fighting forest fires, search and rescue missions, and
environmental projects.

Article VII Proposals

The Executive proposes Article VII legislation to make permanent provisions
of Chapter 428 of the Laws of 1999 which allows the Superintendent of the 
Division of State Police to authorize local police officers to operate 
outside of their jurisdictions when participating in a joint task 
force with the Division.
