The aforementioned award, created through Provincial Ordinance No. 025-2012 and amended by Provincial Ordinance No. 119-2017, recognizes the dedication, selfless service and commitment of the police officers for maintaining peace and order which exemplify the #Probinsyanihan spirit in the Province of La Union. It was also created to serve as an inspiration for the men and women in the police force to continue to excel in their profession with honesty and integrity.

This year's award was approved and confirmed through Sangguniang Panlalawigan Resolution No. 1208-2022 authored by Hon. Gerard G.

This is also the first awarding ceremony after 2 years since the search was suspended in 2020 and 2021 due to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Each awardee was given a plaque, token, a copy of the resolution and P10,000 cash incentive.
