Description: High Grade Gold Plated Challenge CoinUnited States FEDERAL RESERVE POLICE LAW ENFORCEMENT Challenge Coin 40mm Arrives in protective easy snap open clear case. Federal Reserve System Law Enforcement Officers derive their authority from Section 11(q) of the Federal Reserve Act, codified at 12 U.S.C. ยง 248(q). Federal Reserve officers have the same authority as any other federal law enforcement officer while on duty, regardless of their geographic location. Prior to designation as federal law enforcement officers, system protection personnel operated as protection or special police officers in their respective states and were generally regulated to exercising authority on Federal Reserve property, with variances dependent on specific district regulations. Prior to federal law enforcement designation, there were no plainclothes or specialized units in the system. Following the passage of updated legislation by Congress after the events of September 11, 2001, which designated federal law enforcement authority to system officers, authority now extends to wherever a federal reserve law enforcement officer is performing official duties, whether in uniform, plainclothes, or in a specialized unit. FunctionsEach Federal Reserve law enforcement office in the twelve regional districts are independent law enforcement units, though governed loosely out of Washington, D.C. Many of the law enforcement districts have dual city or state police authority in addition to their federal authority. This separate authority allows for the enforcement of state and/or city laws, in addition to the Federal Code. The primary duty of uniformed division officers is to provide general law enforcement and force protection services to Federal Reserve facilities, whether owned or leased. Federal Reserve officers respond to police, fire and medical incidents in and adjacent to their assigned facilities to protect life, render aid or assist other law enforcement. Each Federal Reserve office operates a 24/7 emergency communications (command) center. Federal Reserve officers are authorized to conduct investigations involving Federal Reserve regulations, but assist with local, state and federal investigations into criminal matters that affect the Federal Reserve. Some Federal Reserve districts employ sworn officer intelligence analysts while others utilize non-sworn civilians. Each district has a dignitary protection team, which provide armed plainclothes protection to the twelve Federal Reserve presidents. Protective driving and off-site special event security of other Federal Reserve officials is regularly performed throughout the country. There are five Special Response Teams (SRT) based in San Francisco, Minneapolis, Atlanta, Richmond, as well as New York City, which are designed to respond nationwide. Additionally, Explosive Detector Dog teams, Active Shooter/Patrol Rapid Response teams and Hazardous Materials teams are assigned to several Federal Reserve districts throughout the nation, often traveling to other regions on temporary assignments
