The Indiana Department of Homeland Security has provided us with a remarkably unredacted look at their EMAC (Emergency Management Assistance Compact) agreement with North Dakota. 37 sworn law enforcement officers from nine different Indiana agencies including Indianapolis Metropolitan PD, were deployed to Morton County. Their mission lasted for 18 days and went through late October to early November.
Along with an identical EMAC request to the one we saw from the Governor of Wyoming, we also got more detailed information about what North Dakota was actually paying for. Like in the case of Dane County Sheriff’s Office in Wisconsin, Indiana DHS provided North Dakota with estimates for how much things would cost- $50,814 for travel, $277,694 on equipment, and $399,928 to the responding officers. That breaks down to a grand total of $727,808.
