MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
VIA: Deputy Director for Administratio
Acting Director o Security
SUBJECT: FBI and Fairfax County Police Coordinated
Response to Hostage Situations on the
Headquarters Compound
1. Action Requested: None. For your information.
2. Back round: Pursuant to a recent vulnerability
study of t e Headquarters compound, the Office of Security
is developing a new contingency plan designed to ensure a
coordinated, effective response to any terrorist action or
hostage situation that might develop on the Headquarters
compound.
The Office of General Counsel (OGC) has determined
that the Federal Government and the Commonwealth of Virginia
have concurrent jurisdiction over crimes and offenses
committed on Headquarters property. To avoid possible
confusion arising from the phrase "concurrent jurisdiction,"
the new plan will clarify the specific responsibilities of
both the FBI and the Fairfax County Police following a
terrorist attack.
The initial response to terrorist action on the
compound will be from the Fairfax County Police due to their
proximity to Headquarters. The police response can include
a SWAT capability if warranted by the circumstances. The
police will secure the perimeters, locate and contain the
terrorists, and maintain their positions until relieved.
