Logistics
The BHS Logistics Section is responsible for coordinating the purchase of Homeland Security Grant equipment,
the Homeland Defense Equipment Reuse (HDER) program and disaster logistics needs.
Homeland Defense Equipment Reuse Program
The Federal Government has restored the long dormant HDER program This popular program, closed almost two (2) years ago,
is back and providing equipment to first response agencies across the nation. This program provides new or nearly new equipment,
declared surplus by various federal agencies, to registered response agencies. Once response agencies have been registered
with the Logistics Division of BHS, their information is forwarded to the HDER program manager and placed on the Bureau’s HDER
equipment email contact list. Every sixty (60) days the Bureau receives a fresh list of equipment that is available. That list
is forwarded to the registered agencies throughout Idaho; they contact the HDER program manager directly with their list of desired
items, then wait for the results. Program officials review applications returned within the fourteen (14) day application window,
and make their selection based on the submitted requests. Please Contact BHS Logistics Manager Dale Nalder for more information at 208-422-5725.
