TO: ALL CALIFORNIA LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES

Penal Code (PC) section 13652.1(a) requires each law enforcement agency to “publish a summary on its internet website of all instances in which a peace officer employed by that agency uses a kinetic energy projectile or chemical agent, as those terms are defined in [Penal Code] Section 13652, for crowd control,” within 60 days of each incident. Law enforcement agencies “may extend that period for another 30 days if they demonstrate just cause, but in no case longer than 90 days from the time of the incident.” (Ibid.)

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is required by PC section 13652.1(c) to post on its internet website a complied list linking each law enforcement agency’s reports. Law enforcement agencies with any reportable incidents pursuant to PC section 13652.1 should send to DOJ the link for the website where the required report is posted, using the process described in this Information Bulletin.
