(OTSO) mission is to save lives and reduce injuries on Ohio’s roads through leadership and partnering efforts with others interested in traffic safety, utilizing the most innovative and efficient methods possible of managing state and federal resources. 402 Program The Federal Highway Safety Act of 1966 directed the U.S. Department of Transportation to administer various highway safety programs. This grant program provides federal funds administered through the Ohio Department of Public Safety / Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP) to eligible entities to be used for such projects as traffic safety education, enforcement and engineering. Funds are to be used for highway safety support based on problem identification, with the intent of reducing overall fatal and injury crashes. This program operates on a reimbursement basis. Highway Safety Office Program Housed under the Ohio Department of Public Safety (ODPS) within the Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP), the Ohio Traffic Safety Office (OTSO) administers the Section 402 State and Community grants, related National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awards and initiatives and contracts for traffic safety activities. The staff consists of the Traffic Safety Commander, Traffic Safety Program Administrator, Grants Administrator, Regional Programs Manager/LEL Coordinator, Special Projects Coordinator, Program Administrator, Management Analyst, three Planners, Grants Coordinator and a Fiscal Specialist. The programmatic staff oversees a geographical region of the state, rather than focusing solely on grant program area(s). The state is divided into patrol districts. Planners and LELs are assigned grants based on the highway patrol districts so that each district will have the same planner and LEL. The Planner is responsible for overseeing the programmatic activity on each grant. The Regional Programs Manager/LEL Coordinator oversees the planners and coordinates the five Law Enforcement Liaisons. The Program Administrator oversees the Ignition Interlock program, assists with the web-based grants management system, the Grant Solicitation Package, HSP and AER. The Grants Coordinator and Fiscal Specialist are responsible for the fiscal activity on each grant. The Grants Administrator oversees the Program Administrator, Grants Coordinator and Fiscal Specialist, manages the web-based grants management system, coordinates the Grant Solicitation Package, HSP and AER. The Management Analyst and Special Projects Coordinator assist with the national campaigns, planning assessments, and other projects as needed throughout the year. The Traffic Safety Program Administrator oversees all staff mentioned above and is responsible for all activities of the office. The Traffic Safety Commander oversees the OTSO. Competitive grant proposals are accepted and
