APPENDIX A PAGE 1 OF 2 AGREEMENT FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE NORTH DAKOTA HIGHWAY SAFETY PLAN PROJECT NO. PHSP4020408SP 05 Ph 02 SCOPE OF WORK Cass County is located in eastern North Dakota and has a population of 123,138 people, North Dakota State University is centrally located in Cass County and currently has an enrollment that exceeds 11,000 students, with approximately 5,000 of those students being under the age of 21. Recently the Cass County Sheriff's Department has seen an increase in the number of fake identification cards being seized in liquor establishments within Cass County. Although many identification cards are being seized, there are many fake identification cards that are not being seized because underage drinkers are able to obtain computer-generated fake IDs. These computer- generated IDs are able to recreate state insignias, bar codes, and shadow pictures, which makes it difficult to spot a fake ID with the naked eye, Funding will be provided to the Cass County Sheriff's Department to conduct this project that will help identify computer-generated fake identifications being used. The Cass County Sheriff's Department will purchase three card reader machines. The card reader machines scan magnetic strips and bar codes, which are located on the backside of virtually all states' driver licenses. The card reader machines will be used in conjunction with the "Cops in Shops" programs as well as placing the card reader machines in various liquor establishments on a rotating basis throughout Cass County to serve as a deterrent to minors trying to use fake identifications. Cass County will provide an evaluation report to the Drivers License and Traffic Safety Division no later than November 14, 2004. This report will state the number of identification cards scanned during "Cops in Shops" programs, the number of arrests made during those programs, as well as the number of identification cards seized by liquor establishments when the machines were in various establishments. The final voucher is due no later than November 14, 2004, Supporting documentation must be retained at the local level in accordance with audit guidelines. The Cass County Sheriff's Department will provide a copy of their seat belt policy to the Drivers License and Traffic Safety Division before requesting reimbursement for this activity. All persons reimbursed with traffic safety funds are required to wear safety belts and obey all traffic laws while on official business of the project.
