Sonic Jet Performance Helps First Responders Obtain Federal Grants

States and Municipalities Seek Federal Funds from Dept. of Homeland Security's Earmarked $566 million

STANTON, Calif., April 21 -- Sonic Jet Performance, Inc (BULLETIN BOARD: SJET) a manufacturer of highly advanced watercraft and land vehicles designed to protect and save lives and property, announced today that it will offer assistance to states and municipalities soliciting federal grants for purchase of its mission-specific vehicles.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), through the Office for Domestic Preparedness (ODP), is providing more than $566 million in financial assistance directly to each of the nation's states and territories through the Fiscal Year (FY) 2003 State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP).

This financial assistance is being provided for municipal needs including among other priorities the purchase of specialized equipment to enhance the capability of state and local agencies to prevent and respond to incidents of terrorism involving the use of chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear or explosive (CBRNE) weapons; for the protection of critical infrastructure and prevention of terrorist incidents; and for costs associated with updating and implementing each state's Homeland Security Strategy (SHSS).

Sonic Jet's Bill Morse said, "Since the Program requires that each state obligate 80% of their 2003 allocation to local municipalities, there is a real opportunity for local first-responders to improve their response capability. We're excited to help out." Equipment purchased under the program may be used by the states to enhance capabilities in the areas of law enforcement, emergency medical services, emergency management, the fire service, hazardous materials, public works, public health, governmental administrative, public safety communications, healthcare and public health at the state and local levels of government in accordance with the goals and objectives identified in their state's homeland security strategy. In addition, states and localities may use their equipment allocations to purchase equipment designed to protect critical infrastructure from terrorist attacks and for equipment to prevent terrorist incidents. Bill Morse continued, "We think Sonic Jet products can play a vital role in helping first responders keep America safe, and this grant program may allow some of our vehicles to be used for that purpose. In addition, we will continue to help all municipalities explore funding options to obtain the life-saving watercraft we produce."
