The Communications Division or the Watch supervisor shall assign the escort duty. a. Officers shall arrive at the point of origin no later than five minutes prior to the scheduled departure time. Officers shall determine by the size of the escort if additional units will be needed and, if so, they shall notify the Communications Division. The officers shall notify the funeral director of the chosen route and the speed at which the procession will travel (speeds should be kept between 20 and 30 mph depending on traffic and weather conditions). b.

However, the City will honor the state permit when the oversized haul is moving OPS of 5 02/01/2016

Hazardous Materials Escorts The Police Department shall provide escorts for hazardous materials after being notified by the Fire Marshal s Office of the need for such an escort. Any organization contacting the Police Department for this type of escort shall be advised to first contact the City Fire Marshal. Upon request of the Fire Marshal, the Police Department shall follow the following procedures in a hazardous materials escort: a.

Political Dignitaries or Organization All political escort requests involving United States Government officials, foreign dignitaries, or elected state or city officials will be assigned to the respective Precinct Commander under the direction of the Patrol Bureau Commander. The Precinct Commander will determine if the escort requested is as a result of the dignitary s official duties as an elected official, or involves a political organization or a candidate running for office. It will be the responsibility of the Precinct Commander to coordinate the activities of the escort between the agencies involved. [46.2.6] a.
