1 Policy 408 Special Weapons and Tactics PURPOSE AND SCOPE The primary purpose of the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) team is to preserve life. SWAT is comprised of two specialized teams: the Crisis Negotiation Team and the Special Weapons and Tactics Team. The unit has been established to provide specialized support in managing highrisk operations where critical or prolonged negotiations or special tactical deployment methods beyond the capacity of field officers, detectives or other units. This policy is written to comply with the guidelines established in the Attorney General s Commission on Special Weapons and Tactics Report (September 2002) and the POST SWAT Operational Guidelines and Standardized Training Recommendations (Penal Code ) SPECIAL WEAPONS AND TACTICS TEAM DEFINED The Special Weapons and Tactics Team is a designated unit of law enforcement officers that is specially trained and equipped to work as a coordinated team to assume responsibility for critical incidents that are hazardous, complex, or unusual, and exceed the capabilities of first responders or investigative units. Examples of such incidents include, but are not limited to, hostage taking, barricaded suspects, snipers, terrorist acts, and other high-risk incidents. As a matter of Department policy, the team may also be used to serve high-risk search and arrest warrants where public and officer safety concerns warrant the use of the SWAT team. The Crisis Negotiation Team has been established to provide skilled verbal communicators who may be utilized to attempt to de-escalate and affect surrender in critical situations where suspects have taken hostages, barricaded themselves, or have suicidal tendencies. The Negotiation Team may be utilized for any incident (including non-critical incidents) where negotiation expertise may help resolve the situation COMPOSITION/TRAINING COMPOSITION The Special Weapons and Tactics Team are comprised of a number of specially selected and trained personnel. The members will be drawn from regular and reserve officers; however, the role of a reserve officer will be limited during an operational deployment (e.g. command post operations, CNT, TEMS) TRAINING Training shall be coordinated by the SWAT training cadre and approved by the SWAT lieutenant. The Special Weapons and Tactics Team shall maintain proficiency through direct training in tactics and use of specialized equipment. The Special Weapons and Tactics Team tactical component will normally be required to train at least 16 hours a month as a team. Every year the team should participate in 40-hour in-service training, focusing on core competencies. Outside classes will also be incorporated to provide a more comprehensive range of training.

2 Team members shall maintain a state of operational readiness. Training is a core component of maintaining operational readiness in order to achieve the department s mission, while limiting liability. The command groups to who team members report for their primary assignment should give priority to SWAT training when scheduling personnel. Team members should not miss more than 40 hours in any twelve month period. Any member who has missed more than 48 hours of training during the course of a twelve-month period shall be evaluated by the SWAT command staff to determine if a conflict exists, which may be detrimental to the member s performance. Should such a conflict exist, the SWAT command staff will determine the appropriate action to be taken, which may include de-selection from the team. Exceptions to this requirement may be made by the SWAT Commander or SWAT Lieutenants. All tactical team members shall attend a basic POST approved special weapons and tactics course. All members of the negotiation team shall attend a basic POST approved negotiators course. All members of the tactical team shall be required to maintain a satisfactory level of personal physical fitness.each individual shall successfully complete a timed SWAT physical fitness obstacle course annually. This test will be announced in accordance with the team-training schedule. Failure to meet this qualification will result in a team member s placement on a 180 day non-operational status, unless the failure to meet the qualification was due to an injury incurred either during or prior to the test, in which case the team member will be required to meet the qualification during the next scheduled test after returning to full-duty. The team member will be retested within that 180 day period. Upon successfully meeting this qualification and upon completing any training on core competencies missed during the non-operational period, the team member will return to active status. Failure to pass upon retest shall be grounds for removal from the collateral SWAT team or removal from their assignment to the Special Enforcement Section TRAINING NEEDS ASSESSMENT The SWAT Lieutenant shall conduct an annual SWAT Training needs assessment to ensure that essential training is conducted within Department policy, and the training guidelines as established by POST (11 CCR 1081). The needs assessment shall be reviewed by the SWAT Commander to ensure all of the annual critical training goals are achieved SUPERVISION AND MANAGEMENT TRAINING Command and executive personnel are encouraged to attend training for managing the SWAT function at the organizational level to ensure personnel who provide active oversight at the scene of SWAT operations understand the purpose and capabilities of the team. Command personnel who may assume incident command responsibilities should attend a SWAT or Critical Incident Commander course or its equivalent. SWAT command personnel should attend a POST-certified SWAT commander or tactical commander course, or its equivalent. Published with permission by Special Weapons and Tactics - 2
