    The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is providing Mobile Emergency

    Response Support (MERS) units to ensure that, in the event of an emergency, state and local
    security personnel can quickly link and coordinate with federal partners. MERS provides mobile
    telecommunications, operational support, life support, and power generation assets for the
    on-site management in the event of a natural or man-made incident or act of terrorism. The
    agency will maintain situational awareness, report incidents, and activate federal response
    partners as deemed necessary to protect public health, restore essential services, and lead
    emergency relief and recovery efforts. The Science and Technology Directorate, in
    partnership with Arizona state and local agencies, developed toxic chemical release scenarios
    and analyzed the potential public health impact associated with those scenarios. This
    information informed the readiness posture of state and local agencies in the region.
    Additionally, the Science and Technology Directorate provided SAFETY act designation
    protections to the NFL’s security and special events management services as an eligible
    qualified anti-terrorism technology. These services included security measures used by NFL
    Security Department personnel and independent contractors at host venues for
    NFL-sponspored special events, including the Super Bowl. The Transportation Security
    Administration (TSA) is deploying multiple visible intermodal prevention and response teams
    and explosives detection canine teams in support of Super Bowl LVII. They will work with their
    federal, state, and local stakeholders to sweep the stadium, other essential facilities, and secure
    mass transit locations in and around the Glendale area.

    DHS is working to ensure safety and security at the game on a variety of fronts. Homeland
    Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said, “Dedicated DHS personnel are on the ground
    preparing and coordinating and stand ready to provide operational and technical support to the
    NFL, State of Arizona, and the cities of Glendale and Phoenix to keep Super Bowl LVII safe and
    ensure everyone can enjoy the game.” Earlier in the week, Mayorkas traveled to Phoenix to
    meet with state and local law enforcement officials as well as NFL representatives to go over the
    department’s plans and participate in a press conference. Scott Brown, special agent in charge
    for Homeland Security Investigations in Arizona, is the federal coordinator for Super Bowl LVII.
    Drugs are an issue on the radar of law enforcement during the Super Bowl. In a statement
    provided by Scott Brown, he said, “We're dealing with unprecedented flows of fentanyl coming
    into the country. Arizona is the leading area where fentanyl is entering the country. That's a
    mission that we must make sure we're not impeding, while we're also covering down the
    requirements to provide a safe Super Bowl.”
