(a) The Camo Alert Network is a statewide emergency response system for registered missing military members, whose whereabouts are unknown, who have registered for the network, and suffer from a mental illness, including post-traumatic stress disorder or a traumatic brain injury. Military members can access the registration form on the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) website.
(b) In order to maintain a high level of effectiveness, the department and local law enforcement must accurately evaluate the circumstances according to established criteria to justify activation of the network.
(c) The department has complete discretion in making the final determination about the activation of the Camo Alert Network. Clearly established facts of the case will limit those instances where the statutory criteria for activation are not met.
