1. ACQUISITION OF SUBSCRIPTION/PUBLICATIONS OF AERONAUTICAL NAVIGATION FLIGHT CHARTS Background Under the authority of Title I, Sec. 101 Homeland Security Act of 2002 as amended, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was established to prevent terrorist attacks within the United States; reduce the vulnerability of the United States to terrorism; and minimize the damage, and assist in the recovery, from terrorist attacks that do occur within the United States.

The Mission of the Air and Marine Operations is derived from that of US Customs and Border Protection (CBP), is to “Protect the American People and critical infrastructure by using an integrated and coordinated air and marine force to deter, interdict, and to investigate acts of terrorism and smuggling arising from the threats of unlawful movements of people and goods across the borders of the United States.” Under the Department of Homeland Security, CBP AMO provides airborne law-enforcement support to federal agencies, including presidential protection and investigative assistance. Additionally, CBP conducts airspace security operations for designated national venues and critical infrastructure, and recently established a permanent airspace security presence in the National Capital Region. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection operate several different fixed and rotary wing aircraft based throughout the nation. Many of these aircraft are called upon to operate outside of the US National Airspace System with our international partners.
