federal equitable sharing program and the restrictions upon the use of federally forfeited cash,property,proceeds,
and any interest earned thereon,which are equitably shared with participating law enforcement agencies. By its
signatures,the Agency agrees that it will be bound by the statutes and guidelines that regulate shared assets and the
following requirements for participation in the federal equitable sharing program. Receipt of the signed Equitable
Sharing Agreement and Certification(this"Document") is a prerequisite to receiving any equitably shared cash,
property,or proceeds.
1.Submission. This Document must be submitted to aca.submit @usdoj.gov within 60 days of the end of the
Agency's fiscal year. This Document must be submitted electronically with the Affidavit/Signature page(page-1)

Examples of Agency heads include police chief,sheriff,director,commissioner,superintendent,administrator,
chairperson,secretary,city attorney,county attorney,district attorney,prosecuting attorney,state attorney,

records for five years.
The misuse or misapplication of shared resources or the supplantation of existing resources with shared assets is
