# Arkansas Crime Information Center The **Arkansas Crime Information Center (ACIC)** is Arkansas's criminal-justice information system. Under 12 CAR Part 5, the system is administered by the ACIC Director under the ACIC Supervisory Board, and ACIC is Arkansas's control agency for NCIC and NLETS. Official ACIC materials describe agreements, audits, workstation controls, and secondary-dissemination records. (primary public record, [12 CAR Part 5](../../web%20archive/2026-08-10/webftp.blr.arkansas.gov/12-car-part-5-arkansas-crime-information-center-system.md)); (primary public record, [ACIC official history and terminal resources](../../web%20archive/2026-08-10/dps.arkansas.gov/acic-official-history-and-workstation-terminal-resources.md)) The [[Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act]] also names ACIC as a permissible comparison source. Those official governance facts do not establish that ACIC approves, audits, or supervises every commercial ALPR deployment or sharing relationship. ## Appearance in the corpus ACIC appears in ASP's cross-network analyst-access checklist as one of six systems provisioned to an analyst, coordinated by [[Mike Patterson]] through the [[Arkansas State Fusion Center]] ([[Cross-Network Analyst Access and the Arkansas State Fusion Center]]). That Tier-1 record proves ACIC access in the identified workflow, not ACIC ALPR-vendor oversight. The Batesville production supplies the first agency-authored ACIC agreement in the corpus. [[Rick Stallings]] says ACIC does not provide the NCIC Vehicle File directly to vendors but conditionally permits Batesville to pass it to Genetec for use only with Batesville; the resulting MOU says BPD will receive the file nightly and also says BPD will not share it ([[Batesville ACIC Genetec NCIC Vehicle File Correspondence]], `Part 2.eml`, 2024-01-23 text/plain body; `[email protected]_20240209_085543.pdf`, p. 1). [[T059 - Batesville Vendor-File Permission vs NCIC File Non-Sharing Clause]] tracks the unreconciled instructions. ## Established roles and unresolved boundary - **NCIC/NLETS control agency.** Established by current official rules. - **Agreements, audits, terminal access, and secondary-dissemination controls.** Described in official ACIC resources; deployment-specific records remain unproduced. - **ALPR comparison source.** Named in the Arkansas ALPR Act. - **Commercial ALPR oversight.** Unproved. Ryan Roach's disclaimer that ASP does not review other agencies' ALPR use does not transfer that role to ACIC by inference. [[T006 - ASP ALPR Oversight Disclaimer vs Statewide Coordination Role]] remains open. ## People - [[Rick Stallings]] — ACIC Systems Specialist who supplied the January 2024 vendor-file instruction. ## Notes No direct ACIC FOIA production has been ingested; the Batesville package contains an ACIC-authored MOU and email. A bounded request for agreements, audits, secondary-dissemination records, and Flock/ELSAG/Genetec interface guidance would test the unresolved oversight and implementation questions.
