Description of original award (Fiscal Year 2024, $2,413,463)

The Nevada Department of Public Safety’s (DPS) main goal for their Records Improvement Plan is to match missing dispositions to their corresponding arrests in the Nevada Computerized Criminal History System (CCH) as well as the FBI's Interstate Identification Index (III), correct conversion record data and manually backfill missing state and electronic dispositions into the FBI’s III.  Grant funding will be used to continue to fund a contract with a vendor who specializes in doing this work. Additionally, Nevada will continue to fund the Repository's 6 Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) temporary positions to enter dispositions into the state CCH as well as the FBI III, so final case outcomes will be available in both state and national systems. DPS will also fund 4 FTE positions to assist with the workload in the firearms program.  The FTE staff in both units will also provide resources and information to the vendor to assist in their disposition gathering efforts. Lastly, Nevada will continue in their outreach and training to criminal justice and law enforcement partners to stress the importance of supplying accurate and timely information to the state’s central repository concerning persons with federally prohibiting mental health adjudications or commitments, final dispositions, court orders, and records of misdemeanor crimes of domestic violence for inclusion in state and federal databases to conduct NICS checks.
