These locations tentatively include: South Padre Island, Texas; San Clemente Island, California; and Cudjoe Key, Florida. Value to the public will be a dramatic decrease in drug and human smuggling in the maritime environment in U.S. Coastal waters as well as increased cooperation and support to other law enforcement organizations at the Federal, State, and Local levels.
