MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
Reference: MABAS Executive Board and MABAS Division
This Memorandum of Understanding is in regards to an equipment grant awarded to MABAS by the
Illinois Terrorism Task Force under the guidance of Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA). The
sole purpose of the grant is for the purchase and equipping statewide Special Operations Haz-Mat and
Technical Rescue Teams. The acquisition of the subject equipment is part of amulti-year-planned
proposal to fully equip selected consortiums and teams, filling geographic service voids within the state.
The planned actions are contingent upon available funding and appropriations approvals.
Accordingly, the undersigned authorized agent for the recipient MABAS division, mutual aid association
or municipal population center accepting the subject equipment, understands and agrees to the following
terms of this Memorandum of Understanding.
• Recipients of equipment must be directly related or sponsored by a MABAS Division or have a
signed, current Memorandum of Understanding with IEMA.
• Recipients of equipment and their participating agencies shall comply with all of the requirements
stated in the document awarding the grant funds to MABAS from IEMA.
• Recipients of equipment are responsible for the proper use, care, maintenance insurance and repair
of granted equipment through its manufacturer's useful life span. Reimbursement of costs associated
with the equipment's use, repair, care and replacement from MABAS or IEMA is neither inferred nor
guaranteed.
• Recipients of equipment will only allow properly trained and experienced individuals to use the
equipment on incident scenes. All individuals using granted equipment shall be trained in the proper
use and recipient agencies shall maintain adequate documentation of the training provided and
individuals trained.
• By accepting the grant, its equipment, training and reimbursements, the accepting agency will meet
all applicable minimum standards as established by MABAS and ITTF for statewide response. Failure
to do so shall result in cancellation of the grant, return of equipment and possible ITTF expense
reimbursement.
• Recipients of granted equipment shall not transferor loan equipment to any other agency without the
written consent of MABAS Executive Board.
• Granted equipment, non-expendable in nature shall not be disposed of without the written approval of
the MABAS Executive Board.
• Recipients, who voluntarily select not to maintain a team meeting state and MABAS standards, shall
return granted equipment to MABAS Executive Board who will redistribute such equipment to
qualified recipients.
• Should a team dissolve, reorganize, restructure, fail to meet minimal standards of staffing, training or
equipment serviceability, or no longer wish to serve in a mutual aid /statewide capacity, all equipment
issued under the grant shall be turned back into MABAS for redistribution or assignment.
• All equipment recipients agree they will respond to MABAS mutual aid calls and statewide mutual aid
calls under the direction of IEMA to areas within the state of Illinois and outside their geographic area
of primary response if instructed to do so by authorized individuals. Recipients shall not charge
another local jurisdiction or governmental unit for use of the equipment or other response costs;
however, all agencies may submit for reimbursement as provided by law, during an IEMA authorized
response and/or declaration of disaster, or under applicable spiller pays ordinances and statutes, if
applicable.
