Docken, Department of Public Safety's Grants <br />Administrator, info .r~ning you that your agency has been selected to receive a <br />Heartstream Automated External Defibrillator(s). <br /> <br />The process of designating the number of defibrillators to interested agencies was <br />difficult in that we received funding to purchase 220 units and had request for over <br />600 from 129 law enforcement agencies throughout the state. The review committee, <br />consisting of representatives from the Department of Public Safety, the Attorney <br />General's Office, the State Chief's Association and the Minnesota Police and Peace <br />Officers Association, utilized a number of criteria in reviewing the requests. <br /> <br />In my opinion, members of the l~mesota Legislature are to be complimented in <br />funding this project. I am confident the defibrillators received through it will enhance <br />your agency's response to critical medical situations. <br /> <br />Should you have any questions relative to the program, feel free to contact Pamela <br />Docken or me. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Donald E. Davis <br />Commissioner <br /> <br />Cc: Members of Review Committee <br /> <br />Equal Opportunity Employer <br /> <br /> <br />
