View Rule

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in consultation with the General Services Administration (GSA), codifies a new regulation for the protection of Federal property.  Within DHS, Federal Protective Service (FPS) maintains responsibility for the protection of buildings, grounds, and property owned, occupied, or secured by the Federal government.  This final rule would adopt and revise the language of related GSA regulations, consistent with DHS’s statutory authority. Specifically, the final rule would provide charging options for violations occurring on and adjacent to Federal property, update prohibited conduct to incorporate advancing technology, clarify the publicly posted notice, and apply the regulations uniformly to all Federal property.
