Our Mission is to perpetuate the wildlife resources of the state, to provide a quality state parks system, and to provide enjoyable and sustainable outdoor recreation opportunities that educate and inspire current and future generations to serve as active stewards of Colorado's natural resources.
The Law Enforcement Records Unit resides within the Field Services Branch of Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Field Services provides specialized support for the agency, including investigations, training, boating investigations, records, registrations, and backcountry search and rescue.
Law Enforcement Records Unit currently consists of 2 FTE but is expanding to 4 FTE in July 2024.

Integral to the unit is the Records Management System (RAMS). RAMS is the electronic records system that every CPW officer interacts with regularly. All citations issued by CPW personnel are issued from and integrated into RAMS. Incident reports, evidence inventories, and any other related law enforcement records are housed in the system. RAMS is supported through a third-party vendor located out of state.
