24/7 Sobriety Pilot Program

The Program
The pilot program affects individuals arrested for a second or subsequent DUI occurring on or after January 1, 2008, in those counties. Judges in the South Central Judicial District will, in the case of second or subsequent DUI arrest, issue a bond order requiring the arrestee to refrain from alcohol use and to show up twice each day between certain hours at a specific location for a breath alcohol test. The individual pays $1.00 each test ($2.00 per day) to offset the costs of testing. If the individual's test registers any alcohol use then he or she is immediately taken into custody. If the arrestee fails to show for testing, bond is revoked. The court may also order remote electronic alcohol monitoring in select cases, and it may also order participation in the pilot program as a condition of probation.

CounterACT!

CounterAct 1 CounterAct 2 The Burleigh County Sheriff's Department has an active educational effort in place to address current and future concerns of drug abuse in the community. The department is active in the rural schools throughout the County with the CounterAct program. CounterAct is designed for the education of young students in the fifth and sixth grades. This program alerts students and parents to the problems in society, and particularly the Burleigh County community on the use and abuse of illegal drugs and alcohol.

CounterAct 3 CounterAct 4 The program is a multi-media presentation designed to give the students opportunities to interact with officers and discuss such concerns as; peer pressure, effects of drugs and alcohol, legal consequences, and how to stop drug and alcohol abuse in the community. The education sessions are conducted by deputies in the classroom setting.

The Sheriff's Dept. feels that education is one of the cornerstones that must be established in the community to control the drug and alcohol abuse problem in the nation. Starting with children at a young age gives them the foundation and understanding necessary to avoid these temptations in the future.

Operation Identification

Is one basic step YOU can take to help prevent theft and aid in the recovery of stolen property

Operation Identification is a nation-wide effort of law enforcement agencies and the citizens and businesses they serve. The goal is to reduce property theft, as well as, aid in recovery of stolen property through an identification system.

Marking your possessions with an identifying number is an effective method of deterring theft. Thieves find it more difficult to dispose of stolen articles that can be traced through an owner’s personal ID number. If caught with marked item, the thief can be convicted. The marked items can also be returned to the rightful owner.
