To create four (4) Police Officer II (PO07) for the Hilo and Kona VICE sections to assist with the Ice Task
Force and two (2) Police Officer II (PO07) and one (1) detective (PO11) for the interdiction of ice
and other narcotics that are being smuggled through the Kona airport.
�• •� �� •U 110t
The Hawaii Community Foundation is providing a grant to fund positions for the Department. Four of these
positions will be added to the existing ice task force. It has been stated that the abuse of crystal
methamphetamine or "ice" on the Big Island has reached epidemic levels. The additional personnel will be
instrumental in dealing with the increase in established dealers of crystal methamphetamine as well as
aiding in decreasing both interstate and intrastate importation of "ice." It will allow these units to expand their
current operations that have proven successful in dismantling, disrupting, arresting, and prosecuting street
mid and upper level drug trafficking organizations and organized crime groups involved in methamphetamine
distribution, manufacturing and money laundering.
Three of the positions will establish a specialized "Airport Smuggling Detail' at the Keahole Airport. This
specialized unit will be responsible for interdicting "ice" as well as other hard drugs that are being smuggled
through the Keahole International Airport from source cities such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego,
and Las Vegas. The unit will also be assisting in investigating arriving flights from source countries such as
Japan, Philippines, Canada and Mexico as well as monitoring private aircrafts. This unit will monitor the
various parcel services and freight companies.

NEW POSITION INFORMATION FORM
Date: 11/14/03
Division/Branch: Area I & II - Investigative Division -Vice Ice Task Force
Give reasons how new duties arose (statutes enacted, ordinances, newly
authorized programs, basis for increased workloads, etc.):
A Federal Grant of $525,913 was allocated to fund four new temporary Police Officer
III positions and equipment for one year. These positions would be assigned to assist
our current Ice Task Force in targeting this drug problem area. Additional staff will be
used to focus on "ice" investigations and cases.
2. Can new duties be assigned to existing positions or handled in other way such as
short term contracts, etc.
This is a temporary program, however, since the duties are already being performed
by civil service positions, we need to create comparable temporary positions.
Current staffing of two officers and one Detective for Area I (Puna, S. Hilo, N. Hilo,
Hamakua) an Area II (S. Kohala, N. Kohala, Kona, and Ka'u) need assistance to fast-
track the program.
3. How will new position increase the efficiency/effectiveness of operations? (Use
productivity measurements where possible.):
The additional positions will enhance our new program by having more officers
develop confidential informants, follow up on leads, and investigate cases to close
down "ice houses" on the island.

4. Alternatives that were considered in lieu of new position. (Have technological
changes been considered?)
None, as we are trying to use our current Vice staff, who are already stretched thin
with their regular work on other vice cases.
Why were manpower needs not planned through budgetary process?
The grant was just awarded to Hawaii County and we are in the process of having it
accepted by the County Council.

• -2 similar positions in the Ice Task Force
Give reasons how new duties arose (statutes enacted, ordinances, newly
authorized programs, basis for increased workloads, etc.):
With the increase in importing and distributing crystal methamphetamine on this
island, a concentrated effort in shutting down the smuggling operation through our
Kona Airport and freight companies is vital to the success of our "war on ice."
Through past investigations, we have determined that much of the drugs are being
traced from California and Mexico. Although the Kona Airport is currently servicing
flights from the Mainland and Japan, as well as the other islands, it also serves as a
gateway to many private jets.
With the anticipated receipt of two additional drug canines, we are anxious to take
a pro -active role in closely monitoring any suspicious luggage, packages, or
individuals at the airport.
These positions will also assist the Ice Task Force during stakeouts and when
executing search warrants.
2. Can new duties be assigned to existing positions or handled in other way such as
short-term contracts, etc.
As these positions will be Federally funded, we are requesting temporary positions.
The actual duties are already being performed by civil service positions, and
therefore, we would not be able to contract out such work.

New Position Form

3. How will new position increase the efficiency/effectiveness of operations? (Use
productivity measurements where possible.):
The additional help will relieve the current Ice Task Force from monitoring this area. If
the elements involved in the illegal activity know that close and continuous
surveillance will be taking place at the Airport and freight companies, this should
reduce the activities in these areas, and hopefully, reduce the importation of drugs
to the island.
4. Alternatives that were considered in lieu of new position. (Have technological
changes been considered?)
None, as this is a supplemental program that would be extremely difficult to staff
with our current personnel. The department is in a constant "catch up" to fill
vacancies.
5. Why were manpower needs not planned through budgetary process?
This is a new grant and our regular program and fiscal needs would not be able to
address this additional program duties.
6. List other rationale or pertinent statements and data:
The Department currently has 35 vacancies in the field, although 20 of those
vacancies will eventually be filled when the current recruit class completes their 18 -
month initial probationary period in April 2005. With the 15 remaining vacancies and
anticipated 5-7 new vacancies due to retirements, we are always playing catch up
in filling vacancies in the field.

when executing search warrants.
2. Can new duties be assigned to existing positions or handled in other way
such as short-term contracts, etc.
As these positions will be Federally funded, we are requesting temporary
positions. The actual duties are already being performed by civil service
positions, and therefore, we would not be able to contract out such work.
New Position Form
Page 2
How will new position increase the efficiency/effectiveness of operations?
(Use productivity measurements where possible.):
The additional help will relieve the current Ice Task Force from monitoring
this area. If the elements involved in the illegal activity know that close
and continuous surveillance will be taking place at the Airport and freight
companies, this should reduce the activities in these areas, and hopefully,
reduce the importation of drugs to the island.
4. Alternatives that were considered in lieu of new position. (Have
technological changes been considered?)
None, as this is a supplemental program that would be extremely difficult
to staff with our current personnel. The department is in a constant "catch
up" to fill vacancies.
5. Why were manpower needs not planned through budgetary process?
This is a new grant and our regular program and fiscal needs would not be
able to address this additional program duties.
6. List other rationale or pertinent statements and data:
The Department currently has 35 vacancies in the field, although 20 of
those vacancies will eventually be filled when the current recruit class
completes their 18 -month initial probationary period in April 2005. With the
15 remaining vacancies and anticipated 5-7 new vacancies due to
retirements, we are always playing catch up in filling vacancies in the
field.
