ILLINOIS LAW ENFORCEMENT ALARM SYSTEM
The Illinois Law Enforcement Alarm System (ILEAS) was formed as an alliance of law enforcement agencies in Illinois for the purpose of mutual aid, homeland security, and the combining of resources for public safety. ILEAS represents all 102 sheriffs’ offices and hundreds of police departments throughout Illinois. The organization administers many ongoing projects designed to benefit law enforcement including a statewide mutual aid “alarm” system, regionalized special tactical teams, homeland security grants for equipment, and distribution of escape respirators to all police officers in Illinois.
ILEAS’ roots can be traced to more than 20 years ago when agencies north and west of Chicago formed a mutual aid organization known as the Northern Illinois Police Alarm System (NIPAS) which was based on the fire services’ successful Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS). Over time, NIPAS grew to include dozens of police agencies.
When ILEAS was formed in 2002, it expanded the NIPAS model statewide. The box alarm system provides each agency three significant advantages for dealing with major crises where the individual agency's resources are overwhelmed:
· With a signed mutual aid agreement, every participating agency is on solid legal footing to exercise police authority outside their jurisdiction when responding to a call for assistance pursuant to the agreement. Additionally, every agency involved has signed the same agreement statewide and the risks, liability, authority, and cost distribution are clearly spelled out.
· The mutual aid response is "pre-planned" and therefore less chaotic during the emergency. The onerous and time-consuming task of calling individual agencies for help is moved from the stricken agency to ILEAS.
· ILEAS provides an established platform for potential reimbursement of costs if a state or federal disaster is declared.
Today, more than 830 Illinois law enforcement agencies are members of ILEAS. The organization serves a vital role in the distribution of information to its members and, likewise, serves as a conduit for input and feedback from its members for presentation to senior policymakers at the state level. ILEAS is the voice for local agencies on the Statewide Interoperability Executive Committee and the Illinois Terrorism Task Force Communications Committee where its representatives ensure the needs and concerns of their constituencies are well known and acted upon.
The following is a list of ILEAS’ member agencies.
