Flock Safety Automated License Plate Reading (ALPR) Camera Installation Project

The project involves the installation of a Flock Safety Automated License Plate Reading (ALPR) camera system on behalf of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, with the primary goal of enhancing public safety by enabling law enforcement to detect and intercept vehicles associated with criminal activity. The installation includes a 13-foot square solar-powered pole with an integrated ALPR camera and solar panel, mounted using a compact 3-inch by 48-inch pole anchor to minimize ground disturbance. The system is designed for deployment along Caltrans right-of-way locations in Riverside County, with a specifically identified site at P#124 NB HWY 74 near Art Smith Trailhead Parking in Palm Desert. The technology supports real-time license plate recognition and data transmission to law enforcement databases, providing critical insights for vehicle interdiction while serving the broader public interest in community safety. The project has been determined to be exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review under Section 15303(e), which permits small-scale construction with negligible environmental impact, confirming the minimal ecological footprint of the installation. No federal acquisition regulation clauses are included in the documentation, and there is no detailed breakdown of contract type, value, payment terms, or invoicing procedures. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Office serves as the lead agency and approving authority, with Lieutenant Victor Pierson designated as the primary point of contact. There is no formal identification of a contracting officer, cor/cotr, acceptance criteria, or specified period of performance beyond an action date of November 12, 2025. No financial estimates, delivery schedules, packaging specifications, marking requirements, or compliance standards beyond the CEQA exemption are provided, indicating a streamlined, locally administered installation focused on operational deployment rather than complex contractual administration.
