ATTORNEY GENERAL STATE OF MONTANA

Tim Fox Department of Justice Attorney General Joseph P. Mazurek Justice Bldg. 215 North Sanders P.O. Box 201401 Helena, MT 59620-1401 Fellow Montanans,

As I write this, the latest 2014 Gallup-Healthways Well-Being survey results reveal that Montana rounds out the top fivehappiest states in America. In fact, Montanans who were polled indicated so much pride in where they live, coupled with feelings of safety, that we ranked second in the national survey's communities category.

While it 's difficultto point to any one entity or element as the source of our collective satisfaction, I can confidently say that the men and women of the Montana Highway Patrol are some of our most visible law enforcement officers, interactingwith thousands of Montanans and visitors, logging over six million miles on our roadways last year alone. Our Troopers are there in the remotest corners. offering assistance to the traveling public and enforcing the law when drunk drivers or drug runners threaten the safety of our neighbors.

And while we value our traditions, we' re also keeping up with new ways of addressing the complexities of today's criminal activities. Last summer, MHP acquired its first K-9 narcotic units, deploying them strategically throughout the state. Criminal interdiction efforts with the K-9 units in 2014 netted nine pounds of meth and 27 pounds of marijuana.

MHP also worked hard last year to outreach to the public about the importance of safe driving behaviors. In 2014, Montanans experienced a 30% decrease in speeding-related fatalities , and deaths attributed to not wearing a seat belt dropped by nearly 16%. Overall, fatalities on our roads fell by approximately 15% last year.

Crashes where alcohol played a role rose by about 10% from 2013 to 2014; however, the number of Montana's alcohol-related fatalities in 2014 was down compared to recent years. This is partially due to the success of the 2417 Sobriety Program, which saves lives by requiring participants to take daily breath alcohol tests. Last year, over 183 ,000 tests were conducted in 24 I 7 counties at no cost to our taxpayers. The 2417 Sobriety Program keeps participants sober, accountable, and out of jail; we look forward to its continuing expansion in the years ahead. As a life-long Montanan, I, too, am proud to call this place home, and even more proud of the work that Highway Patrol Colonel Tom Butler and his team do to keep our families safe in communities across Big Sky Country.

MONTANA HIGHWAY PATROL DIVISION GOALS

 Work to build relationships with our citizens and communities. We will also work to continue building partnerships with other state, federal, county, municipal and tribal agencies.  Enhance the professional development of our sworn and civilian employees and promote a high degree of professionalism and accountability.  Continue to be responsive to the needs of our customers through safe and timely response to all calls for service.  Ensure a safe and secure working environment for all MHP employees.  Continue our efforts to be recognized as one of the leading state law enforcement agencies in the nation.

______Date______Colonel Tom Butler Chief Administrator OUR MISSION

The mission of your Montana Highway Patrol is to focus on safeguarding the lives, property, and constitutional rights of people traveling the ways of our state.

Service is what the MHP is about. Service is "to be of assistance to." This can take the form of: Service to the citizens of Montana, Service to those passing through our state, Service to other agencies, and Service to each other. Many times, this service is performed through the enforcement of traffic and criminal codes. For example, by removing a DUI suspect from our highways, we have potentially saved an innocent person from death or injury. The same goes for enforcement of speed and safety belt violations. Changing human behavior through education and enforcement of the standards set by society serves all.

Integrity means having the personal ability to be honorable and upright and exercising that ability in every situation. Basically, we are to b e honest in our dealings with each other, our agency, the citizens that we serve, and ourselves. This value is the key to everything else we do. It is the behavioral foundation of the individual employee, who in turn is the foundation of the agency. Without integrity on an individual or collective level, we are nothing.

Respect is an unbiased consideration and regard for rights, values, beliefs and property: It is much more than just being polite; it is a deeper commitment to the beliefs stated in the C onstitution of the United States, which is something those of us in uniform took an oath to uphold. Respect can and must be shown to all those we contact, even those who may not respect us or our authority to enforce society's laws.

These core values will be the foundation on which the vision is built. The vision in turn will decide the direction that the agency will take in the future. The Colonel has made it clear that it is his desire that the MHP become a leader in the world of law enforcement in the northwestern United States. Something this bold will take the input and efforts of all of us. MMOONNTTAANNAA HHIIGGHHWWAAYY PPAATTRROOLL DDIISSTTRRIICCTTSS

SAFETY ENFORCEMENT TRAFFIC TEAM (SETT)

Sgt Derek Brown

Trooper Lynwood Bateman Trooper Jeremy Lee Trooper Barry Mitchell Trooper Dell Aman Trooper Jonathan Scheer

In 2013 the name for the STET team of the Montana Highway Patrol was changed to Safety Enforcement Traffic Team (SETT). Funded by the Department of Transportation, Highway Traffic Safety Division, this team of troops consists of 5 full-time troopers and 1 sergeant. The SETT team provides high visibility enforcement to selected areas and regions of the state using strategically deployed, aggressive, inter-agency enforcement patrols. The team bolsters high visibility enforcement efforts to educate the public about a variety of behaviors that contribute to traffic crashes, including the dangers of speeding, impaired driving, aggressive driving, distracted/inattentive driving, and the lack of safety belt usage. SETT enforcement has had a very positive effect on the areas patrolled, the 4,017 hours of concentrated enforcement during fiscal year 2014 yielded:
