United States Border Patrol

Administrative Operations & Governance Manual

I. Purpose and Authority

The United States Border Patrol (USBP) serves as the official Staff Team patrol and administrative presence within the server. USBP exists to provide immersive administrative support, maintain CAD compliance, assist new players, and preserve overall roleplay integrity.

This department is staff-only and does not operate as a primary law enforcement agency.

USBP authority exists strictly for administrative and immersive support purposes.

  • CAD compliance checks
  • Documentation stops
  • Administrative support

USBP shall remain limited, controlled, and accountable at all times.

Handle in RP

Level 2 — Admin Clarification

Light OOC clarification
