4VAC20-1050-10: Purpose

The purpose of this chapter is to enhance the physical security of the Huntington Ingalls Industries/Newport News Shipbuilding Company and is part of a comprehensive plan to protect the public, environment, and economic interests from sabotage and other subversive acts, accidents, or incidents of a similar nature.

The chapter delineates the identical areas already restricted by current federal regulation. The adoption of this chapter simply affords the Virginia Marine Police the authority to enforce Virginia law that prohibits entrance into the restricted areas.
