    The Crime Laboratory officially began the trial phase of its new NIBIN process on August 21, 2018.  Since starting the new process, the Crime Laboratory is compliant with the new ATF MROS standards of entering all appropriate firearms evidence within 48 business hours.  There have been a few firearms that were not entered in the 48 hour time frame, but that was due to specific requests from detectives for some type of additional processing that prevented the immediate entry into NIBIN.  It should be noted that the ATF gave local jurisdictions until 2020 to become MROS compliant.
