FY 25 Fairfax County Police Department JAG Grant

The Fairfax County Police Department Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Section proposes to implement a Tactical X-ray System Capability Enhancement Program.  The purpose of this program is to upgrade old portable x-ray equipment which will allow bomb technicians to be mobile and quickly deployable in an environment where tactical and rapid operations are becoming more frequent.  This will improve safety of the bomb technician who will speed less time near a possible explosive device attempting to capture an x-ray image.   Expected outcomes include capability enhancement, improved deployment speed, and use of other non-traditional transportation methods such as use of the police helicopter or police boat.
