Department Subcomponents and Agencies Homeland Security leverages resources within federal, state, and local governments, coordinating the transition of multiple agencies and programs into a single, integrated agency focused on protecting the American people and their homeland. More than 87,000 different governmental jurisdictions at the federal, state, and local level have homeland security responsibilities. The comprehensive national strategy seeks to develop a complementary system connecting all levels of government without duplicating effort. Homeland Security is truly a “national mission.” The following list contains the major components that currently make up the Department of Homeland Security. Directorates and Components The Preparedness Directorate works with state, local, and private sector partners to identify threats, determine vulnerabilities, and target resources where risk is greatest, thereby safeguarding our borders, seaports, bridges and highways, and critical information systems. The Science and Technology Directorate is the primary research and development arm of the Department. It provides federal, state and local officials with the technology and capabilities to protect the homeland. The Policy Directorate is the primary policy formulation and coordination component for the Department of Homeland Security. It provides a centralized, coordinated focus to the development of Department-wide, long-range planning to protect the United States. The Management Directorate is responsible for Department budgets and appropriations, expenditure of funds, accounting and finance, procurement; human resources, information technology systems, facilities and equipment, and the identification and tracking of performance measurements. The Office of Intelligence and Analysis is responsible for using information and intelligence from multiple sources to identify and assess current and future threats to the United States. The Office of Operations Coordination is responsible for monitoring the security of the United States on a daily basis and coordinating activities within the Department and with Governors, Homeland Security Advisors, law enforcement partners, and critical infrastructure operators in all 50 States and more than 50 major urban areas nationwide. The Domestic Nuclear Detection Office works to enhance the nuclear detection efforts of Federal, State, territorial, tribal, and local governments, and the private sector and to ensure a coordinated response to such threats. _____________________________________________________ Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) prepares the nation for hazards, manages Federal response and recovery efforts following any national incident, and administers the National Flood Insurance Program. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) protects the nation's transportation systems to ensure freedom of movement for people and commerce. U.S. Customs and Border Protection is responsible for protecting our nation’s borders in order to prevent terrorists and terrorist weapons from entering the United States, while facilitating the flow of legitimate trade and travel. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) the largest investigative arm of the Department of Homeland Security, is responsible for identifying and shutting down vulnerabilities in the nation’s border, economic, transportation and infrastructure security. Federal Law Enforcement Training Center provides career-long training to law enforcement professionals to help them fulfill their responsibilities safely and proficiently. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is responsible for the administration of immigration and naturalization adjudication functions and establishing immigration services policies and priorities. The U.S. Coast Guard protects the public, the environment, and U.S. economic interests—in the nation’s ports and waterways, along the coast, on international waters, or in any maritime region as required to support national security.
The
U.S. Secret Service
protects the President and other high-level officials and
investigates counterfeiting and other financial crimes,
including financial institution fraud, identity theft, computer
fraud; and computer-based attacks on our nation’s financial,
banking, and telecommunications infrastructure. |

U.S. Coast Guard Security Notice Due to the current atmosphere in the United States, since 9-11, certain security precautions have been implemented by the Capt. of the Port at most harbors in the U.S. For those of us living in Central Florida we have to be concerned with Port Canaveral, Florida. The U.S. Coast Guard has provided a graphic that explains the largest restriction in force at Port Canaveral, Florida. Be alert for signs indicating additional restrictions that are put into place from time to time. Please review the following graphic and if you have additional questions contact the U.S. Coast Guard Station at Port Canaveral for clarification. The USCG can be contacted by Marine Radio on channel 16, if within close proximity, or by calling the station by Cell/Land line at 386-868-4200.
