EXECUTIVE OFFICE OF THE

PRESIDENT

Office of National Drug Control Policy

Designation of High Intensity Drug

Trafficking Areas

AGENCY: Office of National Drug Control

Policy, Executive Office of the

President.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: This notice lists two (2)

counties in New Mexico designated by

the Director of National Drug Control

Policy, as additions to the Southwest

Border High Intensity Drug Trafficking

Area (HIDTA). The Southwest Border

HIDTA in New Mexico currently

consists of Bernalillo, Hidalgo, Grant,

Luna, Dona Ana, Eddy, Lea, and Otero

Counties. The additional counties in

New Mexico are Chaves and Lincoln.

HIDTAs are domestic regions identified

as having the most critical drug

trafficking problems that adversely

affect the United States. These new

counties are designated pursuant to 21

U.S.C. 1504(c), as amended, to promote

more effective coordination of drug

control efforts. This action will support

local, New Mexico, and Federal law

enforcement officers in assessing

regional drug threats, designing

strategies to combat the threats,

developing initiatives to implement the

strategies, and evaluation of the

effectiveness of these coordinated

efforts.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Comments and questions regarding this

notice should be directed to Mr. Richard

Y. Yamamoto, Director, HIDTA, Office

of National Drug Control Policy,

Executive Office of the President,

Washington, D.C. 20503; 202–395–6755.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1990,

the Director of ONDCP designated the

first five HIDTAs. These original

HIDTAs, areas through which most

illegal drugs enter the United States, are

the Southwest Border, Houston, Los

Angeles, New York/New Jersey, and

South Florida. In 1994, the Director

designated the Washington/Baltimore

HIDTA to address the extensive drug

distribution networks serving hardcore

drug users. Also in 1994, the Director

designated Puerto Rico/U.S. Virgin

Islands as a HIDTA based on the

significant amount of drugs entering the

United States through this region. In

1995, the Director designated three more

HIDTAs in Atlanta, Chicago, and

Philadelphia/Camden to target drug

abuse and drug trafficking in those

areas.
