The Associate Commissioner for Enforcement maintains overall responsibility for the enforcement programs of the Service, i.e., the Office of Anti-Smuggling Activities, the Border Patrol Division, the Detention and Deportation Division, the Office of Intelligence, and the Investigations Division. Within these programs he has delegated certain responsibilities to the respective program heads. These responsibilities are enumerated below.

(a) Assistant Commissioner, Investigations.

(1) Responsibilities. Under the direction of the Associate Commissioner for Enforcement, the Assistant Commissioner for investigations is responsible within the Investigations program for:

(i) Accomplishing the program mission through development and implementation of national investigative polices, and establishing and planning of fiscal priorities;

(ii) Reviewing appropriate strategies for accomplishment of the program mission, including recommendations for budgetary, personnel statutory or regulatory change;

(iii) Evaluating and allocating personnel, financial and material resources, to ensure their most effective use;

(iv) Providing guidance and expert advice to other programs, regions and field offices concerning the Investigations Division program mission;

(v) Field inspections and audits within the program, to ensure compliance with policy guidance and nationality assigned priorities;

(vi) Direction and control of:

(A) Undercover Operations which are approved within the limits of, and in accordance with the Guidelines of the Attorney General;

(B) Consensual Monitoring and Electronic Surveillance;

(C) Funded Task Force operations;

(D) Central Office-designated special projects;

(E) Criminal organization investigations under the Investigations program participation in special enforcement efforts which are national in scope, including the Department of Justice Organized Crime Strike Force and Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force.

(2) Mission of the Investigations Program. As the interior enforcement arm of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, the mission of the Investigations Program is to investigate persons who engage in crimes and violations cognizable under the Immigration and Nationality Act and related statutes. The purpose of these investigations is to achieve results which have a meaningful deterrent effect on the overall problem of illegal immigration or which have a significant effect on problems of social impact such as crime perpetrated by aliens in the United States.

Related but separate Service investigative activities not under the direction of the Assistant Commissioner for investigations are the Office Anti-Smuggling Activities, the Office of Professional Responsibility and the Office of Equal Employment Opportunity.

(3) Investigations Case Management System. The Investigations Case Management System (ICMS) is a tool for controlling the workload and resources of the Investigations Program of the Immigration and Naturalization Service. ICMS enable concentration of investigative resources on cases which make a measurable contribution to Service efforts to deal with the problem of illegal immigration. It reflects the interior enforcement responsibilities and strategies of the Investigations Program through the definition of Impact Levels and case line numbers. All types of investigative work have been identified, categorized and ranked into three levels of impact which are evaluated by objective standards. The goal of every investigation is achievement of measurable objectives, such as conviction removal from the United States, civil action, denial of a benefit or cessation of unlawful activities. When these objectives are achieved, the case considered to have been successful.

(i) Impact Level I. Level I is generally characterized by activities which have a significant impact on the control of legal immigration and the restriction of illegal immigration to the United States. Investigations target major violations of the Immigration and Nationality Act and other federal statutes. Deterrence programs support efforts to limit employment and prevent payment of entitlement benefits to illegal aliens. The Investigations activities identified in Impact Level I are:

(A) Criminal Organizations and Aliens;

(B) Employment of Illegal Aliens;

(C) Criminal Fraud Organizations and Schemes;

(D) Deterrence Programs.

(ii) Impact Level II. Level II is generally characterized by activities which are necessary to support the Examinations and Deportation functions of the Service. While cases completed in Level II have less impact on the control of Immigration, a minimum level of effort on these cases is required to maintain the integrity of Service administrative procedures. The Investigations activities identified in Impact Level II are:

(A) Aliens Who Abscond or Escape;

(B) Applications--Fraud Not Suspected:

(C) Status Violators and Illegal Entrants.

(iii) Impact Level III. Level III activities are performed by Investigations personnel but are only minimally or not truly investigative in nature, or do not related to enforcement of the Immigration and Nationality Act, but remain necessary in order to accomplish required Service functions. These are:

(A) Non-Act related Activities Requiring Investigations;

(B) Non-Investigative Functions.

(4) Priorities. The effect of priorities on the investigations Program is to focus resources on areas described in ICMS, consistent with the inter-program goals which are developed each fiscal year by means of the Priorities Management Systems, the Investigations Program of these two systems, the Investigations Program ensures that its enforcement efforts are integrated with the efforts of all other Service components.

(5) Liaison.

(i) Central Office. The Assistant Commissioner for investigations is responsible for investigative liaison with all agencies of the federal government, except as noted in OI 105.2, and with foreign governments concerning matters of broad policy, or sensitive or important cases. Related but separate liaison activities not under the control of the Assistant Commissioner for investigations are the Service representative(s) to INTERPOL under the direction of the Office of Intelligence, and the Service Liaison Of ficer in Ottawa, Canada under the direction of the Eastern Region.

(ii) Field Liaison. The Washington District Office serves in a general investigative liaison capacity for all field offices of the Service and the Central Office in relation to the Washington, D.C. field offices of other federal agencies. In this capacity, Washington District Office will request information, review files and obtain required documents or materials from the records of these agencies.

(b) Assistant Commissioner, Border Patrol.

Under the direction of the Associate Commissioner for Enforcement, the Assistant Commissioner for Border Patrol is responsible for the prevention and detection of smuggling and illegal entry of aliens, and the apprehension of violators of the immigration laws. (TM 5/86)

(1) Areas of Border Patrol Operations. The areas of usual operations are the land boundaries and the Gulf and Florida coasts. Where speed is essential to apprehend violators, any Service-defined boundary may crossed without prior authorization, provided that the appropriate regional commissioner, district director, or chief patrol agent is informed. Criminal violators of the immigration and nationality laws found by border patrol officers in their areas of usual operations will be processed and presented fo r prosecution by the respective chief patrol agents. Those cases requiring further investigations shall be referred to the appropriate district director.
