Where Should I Look for "Suspicious Activity?"

 

Watch for suspicious activities of vessels and individuals in locations such as:

Photo: Lookout on Boat? Under and around bridges, tunnels, or overpasses

? Near commercial areas or services like ports, fuel docks, cruise ships, marinas.

? Near industrial facilities like power plants and oil, chemical, or water intake facilities.

? Near military bases and vessels, other government facilities, or security zones

? In and around passenger terminals for ferries and day cruiser lines

? Near railroad lines serving any of the above listed facilities.

You are NOT expected to patrol any particular area. Your expertise in recognizing suspicious activity is derived from your familiarity with surroundings you operate within while engaged in your normal work or recreation around the waterfront.

 

 

To Report Suspicious Activity:

Call the National Response Center at 877-24WATCH

If There Is Immediate Danger to Life or Property, Call 9-1-1 or Call the Coast Guard on Marine Channel 16
