DHS Interagency Integrated SOP: Joint Field Office (JFO) Activation and Operations

To facilitate the development of future JFOs and other DHS facilities for each high-threat or regional area, a JFO Development Team (DT) will be established. This team will be cochaired by the appropriate DHS/FEMA regional office, DHS/USSS field office, and/or FBI field office. Membership of the team will include all DHS field elements within the defined urban threat area or regional area. DHS/FEMA will coordinate general oversight and guidance throughout the process, ensuring that the years of experience and existing assets utilized in the development of DFOs are carefully integrated into the JFO developmental process.
