The mission of the National Drug Intelligence Center (NDIC) is to provide strategic drug-related intelligence, document and computer exploitation support, and training assistance to the drug control, public health, law enforcement, and intelligence communities of the United States in order to reduce the adverse effects of drug trafficking, drug abuse, and other drug-related criminal activity.

NDIC produces strategic drug intelligence for the Department of Justice (DOJ) and national-level policymakers. This intelligence identifies, analyzes, and prioritizes threats, thereby enhancing policy- and decision-makers' ability to formulate effective, cost-efficient resource allocation and funding decisions that ultimately save taxpayer money. It also facilitates the development of sound strategies, initiatives, policies, and regulations to counter threats and promotes effective, intelligence-driven decision-making in support of the Attorney General's priorities. Reports published by NDIC include annual threat assessments such as the National Drug Threat Assessment, regional drug threat assessments for DOJ's Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) program, and market analyses for High Intensity Drug Trafficking Areas (HIDTA). NDIC also produces requested and ad-hoc intelligence reports on topics that address Southwest Border developments, gangs, money laundering, and other drug-related issues. At the request of DOJ, NDIC also produces non-drug strategic intelligence. For example, NDIC produced an assessment that examined national-level trends regarding child exploitation. Consumers of NDIC strategic intelligence include Members of Congress, DOJ officials, and other intelligence and law enforcement professionals.

NDIC provides operational support to DOJ components through its Document and Media Exploitation (DOMEX) program. NDIC DOMEX supports high-level investigations and prosecutions through the analysis of seized documents and electronic media. This analysis enhances investigations through the identification of unknown leads, associations, and assets and advances prosecutions through the identification and presentation of evidence of criminal activity, the development of prosecutorial exhibits, and the provision of expert trial testimony. DOJ entities supported by NDIC DOMEX include OCDETF, DEA, FBI, U.S. Attorneys' Offices, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. To a lesser extent, NDIC DOMEX supports other agencies including HIDTA offices, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and the United States Postal Inspection Service.

The NDIC training program supports DOJ components and other law enforcement and intelligence agencies by developing and honing attendees' drug intelligence analysis skills. Attendees of NDIC training include federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement as well as U.S. National Guard personnel. Additionally, NDIC provides training on its in-house developed Real-time Analytical Intelligence Database, or RAID. RAID is a relational database that facilitates the analysis and fusing of data from multiple sources to identify common links or unusual patterns. U.S. law enforcement and intelligence personnel are the primary recipients of this software and training.

In consideration of the 2012 funding level, the Department is reviewing how best to use NDIC's personnel and resources and fill any gaps in counternarcotics, organized crime, or other areas.

JCON S/TS Program._The JCON Secret/Top Secret (S/TS) Program provides a seamless, Department-wide IT infrastructure for electronically sharing, processing, and storing classified information. JCON S/TS is a reliable, secure system which allows attorneys, intelligence analysts, law enforcement staff, and managers to exchange classified electronic data within and between components on a real-time basis.

Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program._The Law Enforcement Information Sharing Program (LEISP) is a Department-wide strategy to facilitate the sharing of information about terrorism, criminal activity, and threats to public safety. LEISP will implement the information technology tools needed to facilitate timely, appropriate, and secure sharing of information across the law enforcement community.

Unified Financial Management System._The Unified Financial Management System will allow the Department of Justice to streamline and standardize business processes and procedures across components, providing secure, accurate, timely, and useful financial and procurement data to program managers, and to produce component and Department level financial statements.

Cyber Security Program._The Cyber Security Program provides the Department of Justice with an effective security structure to counter current and emerging cyber threats and to ensure that our agents, attorneys, and intelligence analysts can continue using the Department's IT systems and networks to support their missions without significant interruption of service resulting from cyber attacks.

The Office of the Federal Detention Trustee (OFDT) is mandated to oversee detention programs and improve and coordinate detention activities for the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security. The Federal Detention Trustee (the Trustee) reports to the Deputy Attorney General on detention activities, policy, and detainee population . The Trustee's primary responsibility is to ensure operational effectiveness and the efficient expenditure of appropriated funds while ensuring the safe, secure, and humane confinement of persons in the custody of the United States Marshals Service (USMS). The Trustee's role encompasses the care of Federal detainees in private, state, and local facilities, and includes housing, subsistence, transportation, medical care, and medical guard service. The Trustee also manages the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (JPATS) and ensures equality among participating agencies while allowing unimpeded prisoner transportation operations.

For 2012, OFDT requests funding for housing, medical, transportation, and program oversight costs associated with the anticipated increase in the detainee population. Further, the Trustee will continue to work with state and local governments and private service providers to maintain adequate detention capacity to house detained individuals charged with Federal offenses awaiting trial or sentencing. The Federal Government utilizes various methods to house detainees. Detention bed space for Federal detainees is acquired to maximize efficiency and effectiveness for the Government through: (1) Federally-owned and managed detention facilities, where the Government has paid for construction and operation of the facility (funded in the Federal Bureau of Prisons' (BOP) account); (2) Intergovernmental Agreements (IGAs) with state and local jurisdictions, whose excess prison and jail bed capacity is utilized and paid via a daily rate; and (3) Private performance-based contract facilities, where a daily rate is paid. Based on anticipated growth in the Federal detention population, over three-quarters of the USMS's Federally detained population will likely be housed in state, local, and private facilities.

The Trustee has proven successful in achieving efficiencies and cost reductions and avoidance in detention through process and infrastructure improvements. Through coordinated efforts, OFDT has successfully: developed and implemented eDesignate to provide a more efficient workflow between the U.S. Courts, the USMS, and the BOP; facilitated the establishment of Regional Transfer Centers and Ground Transfer Centers to accelerate the movement of prisoners to a designated BOP facility; and increased the use of detention alternatives by providing funding to the Federal Judiciary to support alternatives to pretrial detention, such as electronic monitoring, halfway house placement, and drug testing and treatment. OFDT continues to work with its partners to identify issues and develop solutions to drive further efficiencies.
