DHS Underfunds Regional Security Centers
New intelligence centers planned for Colorado and 37 other states are at risk because their federal funding is being cut.More here.
The Denver Post reported Aug. 13 that federal funding used to establish the centers is shrinking. Last week Colorado state officials warned about the financial shortfalls, saying the state was unable to cover rent and operating costs of approximately $300,000.
If the funding for the systems is not restored, state officials say that they would be forced to use media reports and communication systems that predate the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
