Buffer Zone Protection Program (BZPP)

​The BZPP Grant Program provides funding for equipment and protective measure to better protect, secure, and reduce the vulnerabilities of federally identified critical infrastructure and key resource sites.  A buffer zone is the area outside a facility that an adversary can use to conduct surveillance or launch an attack.  BZPP provides funding to local law law enforcement for equipment acquisition and planning activities to address gaps and enhance security capabilities. The program brings together private sector security personnel and first responders in a collaborative security planning process that enhances the buffer zone.
