CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION
1.1.1. Background
The priority mission of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is homeland security.
For the border agency charged with managing, securing, and controlling the nation’s
border, that means the CBP priority mission is to prevent terrorists and terrorist weapons
from entering the United States.
An important aspect of this mission involves improving security both at and between
United States ports of entry, but it also means extending the zone of security beyond the
physical borders. This extended border strategy is essential to creating smart borders
and a layered defense in-depth strategy.
To become more effective and efficient in accomplishing its mission, CBP has unified as
one border agency. By integrating federal inspection elements, CBP has established
unified primary inspections at all United States ports of entry along with specialized
secondary inspections focused on combating terrorism.
While carrying out its priority mission, CBP must also work to facilitate the movement of
legitimate trade and people. The agency will accomplish its facilitation goals by
gathering advance data regarding incoming and outgoing people, conveyances, and
goods; improving targeting; and using technology to leverage its resources. CBP will
also promote government and private sector partnerships that permit screening of cargo
and people beyond United States borders.
At CBP Cruise Ship Passenger Processing Facilities, CBP will work to protect America
and its citizens by carrying out its mission more effectively by using innovative
approaches. Traditional methods will also be utilized thorough the screening of
individuals, including a comprehensive examination of suspect baggage or cargo and an
intensified effort to protect American agriculture from the introduction of injurious plant
and animal pests and disease.
1.1.2. Application
The CBP Design Standards for Cruise Ship Passenger Processing Facilities herein
referred to as Cruise Terminal Design Standards (CTDS) reflect national policy,
procedures and facility development standards for the design and construction of CBP
Cruise Ship Passenger Processing Facilities. These technical design standards are to
serve as the primary reference document for Municipal Port Authorities, Architect /
Engineering consultancies, port operators, transportation lines, and all CBP personnel
involved with the planning, design, renovation and development of CBP Cruise Ship
Passenger Processing Facilities.
These standards are intended to provide clear guidance and protocol, establish
minimum facility design requirements, and present standardized procedures CBP cruise
ship passenger processing facilities. They are annotated with appropriate references to
applicable laws, regulations and rules. The references may be cited to the maritime
community to ensure understanding and compliance with the procedures outlined in the
CBP CTDS. It is not intended to be an all encompassing document, but rather a guide
for facility development. These standards will be subject to continued revision,
expansion and updating at the discretion of CBP.
These technical design standards are available based on demonstrated need and may
be requested through the appropriate CBP Field Office. The Assistant Commissioner,
Office of Field Operations (OFO), and the Assistant Commissioner, Office of Finance
(OF) are jointly responsible for the implementation and administration of national policy
for these technical design standards. Field Offices are responsible for applying the
policies and procedures of these technical design standards.
Alternate or equivalent means, exceptions and deviations to these standards may be
proposed to meet a specific requirement of the CTDS for review and approval by the
Director, Field Operations (DFO) with concurrence from CBP Headquarters (HQ).
Facility Changes
These changes, as summarized below, will impact the planning of all new passenger
processing facilities and any major renovation of existing facilities, advance the
objectives of the DHS and expedite the processing of passengers and baggage carried
aboard international ships.
The new Secondary Processing Area change will enhance CBP’s law enforcement
capabilities and allow officers to process passengers directed to secondary processing
more efficiently for passport issues and baggage and agriculture processing. The
Secondary Area includes a consolidated hard secondary area with Interview and Search
Rooms, Hold Rooms, Support Rooms, Labs, Local Area Network (LAN), and
Telecommunications areas.
The overall effect of the consolidation and integration of offices, training, and conference
and support functions within the CBP facility typically reduces the space previously
required to house three separate agencies, providing a greater efficiency and lowering
costs to the port operator. Refer to Chapter 3, Design and Construction Requirements
for revised standards.
New Initiatives
Two recently initiated law enforcement programs will have an impact on the construction
requirements for passenger processing facilities in the United States and at
Preclearance sites in foreign countries.
CBP and the US-VISIT Program Office are supporting new DHS initiatives for e-passport
readers and should be contacted regarding requirements associated with these and
other new initiatives.

Renovation, A major renovation requires the airport operator or carrier to comply
Major - with CBP’s CTDS in the areas affected by the renovation. A major
renovation is one that impacts CBP processing areas, office space,
and operations areas. Affected CBP areas would require the
airport operator or carrier to comply with the current CBP CTDS
when renovation affects CBP operations. A major renovation to one
part of the CBP sterile area, though requiring compliance with the
current CBP CTDS in the area to which renovations are made, may
not necessarily require renovations/compliance with other parts of
the CBP sterile area not affected by the major renovation. For
example, renovation of the CBP processing booths that would have
to comply with the current CBP CTDS, may not necessarily require
the airport operator or carrier to renovate the CBP office area and
comply with the current CBP CTDS concerning CBP office space.
Renovation, A minor renovation in the CBP area is one that does not appreciably
Minor - affect CBP processing areas, office space, or CBP operations. For
example, modifications of the sterile corridor system or gate areas
may fit the definition of a minor renovation that would not require
compliance with the CBP’s present CTDS except for the affected
area unless passenger capacity is increased.

2.1 OVERVIEW OF THE CBP AREAS WITHIN THE FEDERAL INSPECTION SERVICE
(FIS)
At CBP Cruise Ship Passenger Processing Facilities in the United States, the sterile
CBP / FIS area includes ship arrival gangway vestibules, the Sterile Corridor System
(SCS), baggage claim, passenger processing areas and the CBP / FIS office and
support areas.
The CBP passenger processing facility must be separated physically and visually from
the non sterile / public areas and other outside areas. This separation includes a wall
structure that goes from the floor to the underside of slab of the structure above to
establish a sterile environment. The FIS area must be designed so that arriving
passengers or crewmembers cannot bypass the processing area or interact with the
public prior to CBP processing.
After disembarking, the passengers move through the sterile corridor to the CBP Primary
Processing Area and then to baggage claim to collect their baggage. Beyond the
baggage claim area, passengers proceed to the secondary processing area or to the
main CBP exit control area.
Small cruise ship facilities Processes less than 800 passengers per hour
Mid-size cruise ship facilities Processes 800 to 2,000 passengers per hour
Large cruise ship facilities Processes 2,000 passengers or more per hour
Cruise Ship Passenger Processing Facilities in the United States can be staffed or non-
staffed. At smaller facilities processing a low volume of traffic arriving aboard a limited
number of international ships, some standards presented in the CTDS may seem
stringent. In this instance, CBP officials will evaluate the port’s traffic projections on a
case-by-case basis and, if warranted, reduce selected requirements accordingly.
CBP passenger processing facilities are provided at no cost to the government and
processing services are normally furnished by the government at no cost to the port
operator. The design and construction of spaces within the secure perimeter of a
processing facility and other related areas controlled by CBP must be approved in
writing before CBP processing begins.
New or renovated passenger processing facilities must comply with all applicable CBP
standards in place at the time of construction document approval. Absent extraordinary
circumstances, no new standards or operational changes which can impact the building
will be required by CBP after written plan approval has been provided by CBP.
CBP considers a passenger processing facility designed for a useful life of not more than
two (2) years a temporary facility. Permanent facilities should be designed to reflect
traffic projections for a minimum of five (5) years and preferably ten (10) years.
Although many facilities are in a state of continuous renovation and may refer to some
projects as “interim” or “temporary”, this does not affect the CBP planning and approval
process or the facility requirements necessary to support CBP operations.
CBP provides the port operator or their agent with oversight review to ensure that the
design provides all of the spaces and build-out required to support CBP processing
operations at the port. Programming workshops will be conducted with CBP and the
design team to determine and refine project requirements as required. Requirements of
other FIS agencies will also be defined at this time. A project budget and schedule will
be developed during this phase.
The CBP Field Office maintains oversight authority over project development and
coordinates with other CBP program representatives, including OFO, OF, IA, OIT, CBP
HQ, and Field Office staff as required.
Periodic technical and functional reviews will be scheduled with the respective CBP
representatives, and at the conclusion of this phase the port operator or their designated
agent may receive CBP approval and be authorized to proceed to the bidding and
awarding of the project. Reconciliation of the review comments and an opportunity for
final input and written approval from CBP is required prior to completion of the
Construction Documents (one hundred percent Design Submission) and acceptance by
CBP. Budget and schedules are updated and procurement continues to track
equipment provision and deliveries.
CBP Move In
CBP is responsible for procurement and placement of specific computers and other
equipment. CBP is also responsible for coordination of security and other equipment
that is the budgetary responsibility of the port operator. Coordination is critical in the
Move-In and Occupancy Phase of the project. As the project nears completion, CBP
telecommunication equipment is staged for installation at the site. Installation of
furniture and equipment proceeds and a final inspection is scheduled with CBP to
ensure facility compliance with CBP standards for approval and occupancy.
After the CBP final inspection punch-list of the facility is determined acceptable by the
CBP Field Office, CBP will issue written approval as required and assume occupancy of
the facility. Once staff and equipment move-in is accomplished, facility commissioning
begins for the first arriving ship.
CBP Occupancy
When CBP occupancy is complete and the facility is in operation, facility strategic
resource and condition assessments may occur at periodic intervals. The process for
development and design of the CBP portion of an FIS facility identified in detail above is
indicated on the flow chart following this section.

(PHS)
The Public Health Service (PHS), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is
authorized to make and enforce such regulations as are necessary to prevent the
introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries
into the United States or its possessions. If PHS operations are involved in the FIS
facility, PHS must be contacted in the early planning stages of the project. They will
provide valuable planning and programming input to ensure the facility will be adequate.
Introduction
A CBP Cruise Ship Terminal FIS Facility is located within Cruise Ship terminals utilized
for CBP primary and secondary passenger processing operations. The facility may be
used to accommodate permanent CBP staff or personnel dispatched from a near by
location on a temporary or as needed basis.
General Requirements
The facility will generally require an adequately sized gangway and corridor system,
CBP primary, secondary, and exit passenger processing booths / workstations, queuing,
and circulation areas, form counters, offices, and support areas. The following space
requirements outlines functional space typically required at a CBP Cruise Ship Terminal
FIS Facility. Although typical, each new construction and major renovation project plan
must be reviewed and coordinated with CBP for actual requirements based on specific
operations as determined by CBP.
Introduction
A CBP Ferry Terminal FIS Facility is located within ferry terminals utilized for CBP
primary and secondary processing operations. CBP ferry inspection operations are
conducted for both pedestrian and vehicular traffic and may also support a commercial
cargo element based on the specific operations of the port. Separate commercial cargo
facility accommodations are required in roll-on, roll-off, passenger ferry operations or
what is commonly referred to as RO / PAX operations. RO / PAX operations may carry
freight, vehicles, and passengers on a single ship.
The ferry facility, regardless of type of facility, may be used to accommodate permanent
CBP staff or personnel dispatched from a near by location on a temporary or as needed
basis. Separate technical design standards are required for the development of ferry
FIS facilities. Refer to the “Ferry Terminal Design Standards for Passenger Processing
Facilities” available from CBP.
Introduction
CBP Seaplane Terminal FIS operations are located within seaplane facilities utilized for
CBP primary and secondary passenger processing. The facility is typically used to
accommodate CBP personnel dispatched from a near by location on a temporary or as
needed basis.
For standards related to the design and development of seaplane FIS facilities, refer to
Chapter 8, “General Aviation Facility” in the “Airport Technical Design Standards”
available from CBP

3.1 INTRODUCTION
These Design and Construction Requirements were developed to assist architects and
engineers (A / E) in planning CBP passenger processing areas, secondary processing
support spaces and other areas related to CBP cruise ship passenger processing
facilities . The port operator / transportation line is required to provide all cabinetry, built-
ins, fixtures, furniture, and equipment specified, described or required by the following
program. Items furnished by the government are limited to equipment specifically
identified as “CBP provided equipment”. The port operator / transportation line is
required to contact CBP in the early stages of project development for guidance and
CBP approval in planning the facility. The facility requirements are determined by the
volume of traffic processed at the peak hour of activity and CBP operational
requirements. The facility space requirements matrix categorizes cruise ship passenger
processing facilities as follows:

3.3.1. Introduction
The Sterile Corridor System (SCS) allows passengers and crew to proceed to the CBP
processing area and assures that no one has physical contact with other types of
passengers, the general public or unauthorized transportation line and port employees.
CBP requires oversight and control capabilities of the SCS through the use of a physical
security system tied into the CCC and local port, transportation line and police
emergency response systems. Passengers utilize the SCS to enter the PPA where
passengers queue for arrival processing.
All doors leading into and out of the FIS area must be equipped with CCTV cameras
ensuring there is full surveillance coverage. All doors leading into and out of the FIS
must be equipped with automated access control and have alarm exception assessment
capabilities. When an alarm is activated, the alarm scene will be displayed on the
associated “queue-up” monitor in the CCC and / or other CBP designated location as
required.
The physical security system must allow for a real-time assessment of the situation and
there is to be real time video recording capabilities for investigative purposes. The
system must also allow for real-time assessment of bona fide port or transportation line
personnel entering or exiting the CBP area through associated portals. Refer to Chapter
5 for additional security requirements and clarifications.
Wireless communications coverage is needed throughout the SCS. Depending upon the
construction of the facility and the distances involved, one or more internal antenna
systems may be required. Where an internal antenna system is needed to support SCS
communications, an associated Radio Equipment Room is also required. CBP is to be
contacted during the early stages of project planning for all wireless communications
requirements.
Restrooms
Restroom facilities should not be located within the SCS. Restrooms should be
constructed of solid ceilings and walls and be located prior to and as near to the CBP
primary passenger processing area as possible to prevent the smuggling of aliens,
documents, drugs, and other contraband. Restrooms should be designed as open as is
reasonable so that CBP roving patrols can easily determine if someone is hiding within
the rooms.
3.4.1. Introduction
The SCS ends in the arrival hall of the PPA. The Arrivals Hall is a large area in front of
the primary processing booths designated for passenger queuing.
The PPA is the area where the CBP officers examine and screen arriving international
passengers to determine nationality and / or admissibility to the United States. The
passenger areas consist of:
• Forms counters
• Queuing area & Primary Processing Lanes (PPL)
• Primary Processing Booths (piggyback units)
• Support areas / offices
The CBP PPA must be designed to accommodate peak passenger loads and
anticipated growth allowances. Adequate facilities shall be provided for handicapped
passengers in wheelchairs, and passengers requiring space to complete required
documentation prior to CBP processing. Upon entering the CBP PPA, passengers and
crew select the appropriate queuing lane.
Passengers proceed to the baggage claim where the passengers claim and retrieve their
baggage. Baggage carts in the baggage claim area, if any, should be stored parallel to
the flow of passengers and must not be located closer than 20 feet from the egress point
of the CBP PPA. Passengers then go through the determination of admissibility by CBP.
All passengers requiring further examination or processing are referred to the CBP
Secondary Processing Area. Passengers in CBP Secondary Processing are then either
allowed to proceed to the exit control area or are detained by CBP for further
examination and final disposition.
Above each PPL, signage must be available for directing and informing passengers.
Refer to Chapter 4, Signage for signage requirements.
Construction Requirements
Each CBP primary booth houses a personal computer (CPU, monitor and keyboard), a
document reader, a printer, and ancillary lighting and equipment. Additional space and
design considerations may be required to house US-VISIT equipment, including
camera(s), and fingerprint readers at the CBP primary processing booths.
Specifications and planning guidance must be obtained from CBP. However, the overall
design of the primary processing booth must protect the officer from physical assault and
provide an immediate means of egress in case of an emergency. The booth design
must ensure that the officer faces the primary processing lane, and the computer
monitor must be positioned so the traveling public cannot view the law enforcement
sensitive information visible on the screen. Each CBP primary processing booth must
be securable to prevent against vandalism, tampering and theft after hours when CBP
personnel are not present.
US-VISIT Requirements
In most instances, the U.S. VISIT Program Office furnishes and installs the necessary
electronic equipment at each CBP Processing booth including camera(s) and fingerprint
readers that are housed within the primary processing booths. The port operator is
responsible for providing the necessary cabling, conduit, and 120 VAC dedicated
electrical power. CBP must be contacted for project coordination with the U.S. VISIT
Program Office regarding all related booth design and equipment requirements.
Lighting Requirements
The port operator must provide uniform illumination of 70 foot-candles minimum at the
booth work surface, and the passenger aisle, that affords visibility without shadows or
glare, and to facilitate acceptable facial recognition photographs. This could be
accomplished by placing a break in the ceiling with a soffit that would allow task lighting
directly over the work position.
Booth Glazing
Glazing will be 3 / 8” minimum safety glass anchored firmly to the booth casework to
withstand a minimum lateral load of 75 lbs with minimum deflection.
Black Lights
The provision for black lights is required at each primary processing booth workstation
for document reading. A compartment for the location of a black light must be placed
directly in front of the officer and mounted to the '
underside'of the '
upper'counter level.
Shields should be placed on all UV-A black lights used for document reading. UV-A
tubes should be facing down or angled away from the eyes and skin. Only one UV-A
tube should be used in any lamp assembly to prevent over exposure to skin.
Install a baffle panel on the fixture side adjacent to the officer, and flush-mount a non-
reflective material to the work counter under the black light fixture. This provides eye
protection from the black light and shall be used at all locations. Install an easy to
access switch under or adjacent to the black light compartment. In addition, access to
UV-A tubes should allow easy and unobstructed replacement of tubes when required.
3.5.1. Introduction
The consolidation and integration of support functions into a CBP passenger processing
complex include the development of a new unified passenger processing initiative by
CBP.
Several key objectives are accomplished with this unified processing initiative, including
the integration of predecessor agency missions into a single passenger processing
environment, which is thorough and facilitates the safe and efficient flow of passengers.
There are the three major components to the Secondary Processing Area, they are:
• Secondary Processing Area
• Secondary Operations and Support Areas
• CBP Administration Areas
Each of these components and their associated functional spaces are presented in the
following summary overview with a brief statement of the functions in each component.
The technical requirements for each of these spaces are defined later in this chapter.
The Secondary Processing Area includes the queuing area, triage podium, Rover
Coordination Center (RCC), bag/agriculture x-ray stations, the document and bag exam
podiums and bag exam stations.
B. Triage Podium(s)
A podium located at the end of the queue area which allows CBP officers to efficiently
determine, sort and direct secondary referral passengers for processing of admissibility
issues, baggage examination and agriculture processing issues is required.
Each podium requires a referral passenger queue area in front of the podium and a
circulation aisle behind the passenger queue area. Provisions for telephones, data,
power and physical security systems are also required to support the mission of
baggage examination and document processing at triage Podiums within the CBP
Secondary Processing Area.

Construction Requirements
Detailed drawings of the Secondary Baggage X-Ray Processing Workstations, Exam
Podium and Baggage Belts are included in the appendix and should be used in
conjunction with the provided specifications. Each CBP Secondary Baggage Exam
Podium houses a personal computer (CPU, monitor and keyboard), a document reader,
a printer, and ancillary lighting and equipment.
Specifications and planning guidance must be obtained from CBP. However, the overall
design of the Baggage Exam Podium must protect the officer from physical assault and
provide an immediate means of egress in case of an emergency. The Podium design
must ensure that the officer faces the secondary referral passenger and the computer
monitor must be positioned so the passenger cannot view the law enforcement sensitive
information visible on the screen. Each CBP Baggage Exam Podium must be securable
to prevent against vandalism, tampering and theft after hours when CBP personnel are
not present.
Lighting Requirements
The port operator must provide illumination of 70 foot-candles minimum at the podium
and baggage belt work surfaces that affords visibility without shadows or glare.
Additional task lighting is to be provided directly over these examination work areas.
Communication Requirements
Each podium requires an intercom communications system connected to the CCC and
other designated locations as determined by CBP.
Steam Sterilizers
CBP, in coordination with APHIS Plant Protection and Quarantine, requires the
destruction of agricultural products not cleared for entrance. A unit must be provided at
the facility unless there is a proven alternative solution that is acceptable to the CBP
Director, Field Operations. The steam sterilizer unit must be capable of sterilizing wet
materials, such as fruits, vegetables, meats and soil. One of three methods is used for
the destruction of agricultural products: Steam Sterilizers, Dumpster / Cookers, and
Incinerators.
CBP, in coordination with APHIS, may have a sterilizer at the facility or use a sterilizer at
another site or employ the services of a contractor to sterilize and dispose of products.
Steam sterilization, whether in a sterilizer or dumpster / cooker, accomplishes the task of
destruction and is approved in all air quality control zones. State and local codes,
particularly in western states, place limitations on incinerators, including air emissions
and rate of burning, and assess high permit fees. Most states ban incinerators. In
special cases, incinerators may be provided, as needed based on local environmental
regulations.
Sterilization devices can vary in sizes and models. The sterilizer should be located in an
area with convenient access from the CBP Agriculture Lab. Sterilizers must be electrical
even though gas is available. Gas units should not be used because of maintenance
and costs. The sterilizer with electrical steam generator may require up to a 480-volt 3
Phase 50 Amps power supply and a soft H2O system. Sterilizers can use building
steam service. Provide 1200 mm (3 feet) clearance on all sides of the sterilizer for
service access. Sterilizers can weigh up to 3600 kg (8,000 pounds) and should be
placed on slabs or have special structural support. Sterilizers can be placed inside, or
located outside under a canopy. If located inside, the area containing the sterilizer
should be separated from other areas by a moisture barrier, and the area should have
100% exhaust air. Either system requires a minimum 75 mm (3 inch) water drain.
Provide individual disconnect to all utility service lines for the steam sterilizer.
Occupancy Communications
Varies. Phone and data outlets.
Other Systems: Provide an intercom station connected to the
CBP coordination center and other designated locations as
determined by CBP.
HVAC Requirements.
Above-standard ventilation and filtering are required for bird quarantine areas. Special
HVAC requirements include the use of independent mechanical equipment in bird
holding areas. Exhaust air should not be mixed with the return air from other spaces.
Bird holding areas should be negative pressure from other spaces. The use of high
efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters is required, in addition to door seals. Duct
systems in animal holding areas should be aluminum to prevent corrosion.
The installation of a fire suppression sprinkler system is recommended and may be
required by the governing building code.

K. Interview Rooms
CBP must determine the number of interview rooms required after assessing the factors
relating to the passenger traffic and operational characteristics of the CBP facility. Each
interview room must have dedicated computer and telephone lines, and adequate
lighting, computer, telephone, and power. Windows must be provided in the walls
between the interview room and adjacent passenger wait area for maximum visibility
between the two rooms. In addition, provide a door that has a glass view window in its
upper half. The visibility requirements preclude compromising situations between the
passenger and officer during one-on-one interviews.
In addition, placement of local cameras within the room is provided to allow CBP to
document interview activities. Do not design fixed furniture for this room. The
placement of confining fixed furniture inhibits operations and support of electronic data
requirements.
Doors will swing outward 180° and windows must be equipped with mini-blinds. A / E
should pay special attention to doors swinging into egress corridors and provide enough
clearance to meet code requirements. All walls and ceilings shall be solid construction.
Each interview room requires a duress button for use by an officer in an emergency.
L. Search Rooms
Search rooms are designed for an extensive search of select passengers and / or his or
her possessions and should be located in close proximity to interview rooms. The
search rooms may also serve, as a temporary hold room should separation from others
be required. The search rooms must be constructed to hardened construction standards,
with quantity to be determined by CBP based on the particular anticipated passenger
requirements. These areas must be situated in a secure area to ensure the safety of
both officers and the traveling public.
M. Hold Rooms
The following rooms are to be designed to the Hold Room Construction Requirements.
Refer to:
• Male Detention Hold Room
• Female Detention Hold Room
• Juvenile Detention Hold Room
Located within the access controlled CBP secondary processing area, this room is used
to detain persons. Individual or group hold rooms for detainees must be constructed to
hardened construction standards, with quantity and size to be determined by CBP based
on the particular anticipated passenger requirements. These areas must be situated in a
secure area to ensure the safety of both officers and the traveling public.
A minimum of three hold rooms is required at each facility, with one each for males,
females and juveniles. These hold rooms should be co-located. Hold rooms will be
rectangular in shape with no dividing walls or partitions. All fixtures must meet
detention-grade standards.

CHAPTER 4 - SIGNAGE
4.1 INTRODUCTION
All CBP signage must be approved in advance by CBP and meet all established
requirements regarding type, location, size, branding, color, and other design criteria
prior to being installed within the CBP passenger processing facility. Certain signs
require the use of the DHS seal and are governed by a series of DHS and CBP
regulations regarding seal location, size, color, and design. Consultation with CBP is
required prior to production and installation of these signs and may include additional
signage requirements as determined necessary to support operations.
The below signage design criteria is general in nature and should be used in conjunction
with additional detailed guidance available from the CBP Headquarters, Office of
Finance, Asset Management. Early and continuous coordination with the appropriate
CBP Field Office will ensure project success by providing the necessary guidance
regarding design, regulation, procurement, installation, exceptions, and approvals
necessary for implementation of the CBP signage standards at cruise ship passenger
processing facilities.
Skillfully designed, properly placed signs in sufficient numbers can make a significant
contribution to operational efficiency by minimizing confusion among travelers and
permitting traffic to move expeditiously through a CBP passenger processing facility. The
signs specified and illustrated in these guidelines support CBP operational signage and
are divided into four separate categories as outlined below, and include way finding,
identification, notification, and statutory / regulatory. In addition to operational signage,
CBP also requires suitable CBP Identity Signage that properly identifies the CBP
organization to the public and is usually located on the exterior of the CBP passenger
processing facility sterile perimeter in the public area. The CBP operational signage
categories include the following:
Wayfinding Signs. Wayfinding signs are similar to those commonly found throughout the
terminal that provide directions to passengers, crewmembers, port and transportation
line personnel, and CBP personnel to help locate specific areas within the CBP
Passenger Processing Facility.
Identification Signs. Identification signs help identify locations within the CBP Passenger
Processing Facility to include operational areas and specific rooms and assist the
traveling public through CBP processing.
Statutory / Regulatory Signs. Statutory signs are unique to the CBP facility providing
international travelers with statutory / regulatory instructions, information and official
legal notices. The content of a statutory / regulatory sign cannot be altered and must be
presented in its entirety.
In addition to the signage specified, the PHS and the FWS should also be contacted to
determine any additional signage requirements either of these agencies may have.
• In new construction, the baggage claim area and secondary processing areas
are located downstream from CBP primary processing and adjacent to the
main exit lanes from the CBP passenger processing facility. The entrance(s)
to secondary must be clearly recognized by members of the traveling public.
Supporting wayfinding signage may be necessary to direct passengers to the
CBP secondary area. The point of entry is marked: “U.S. Customs and
Border Protection, Secondary Processing”. Clearly mark the “triage”
workstation within the entrance of secondary as “CBP Secondary
Processing”. In addition, clearly mark the “Exit” from the secondary
processing area.
• In existing facilities where the CBP secondary processing areas have not yet
consolidated all associated functions into a secondary processing area,
additional signage may be required. The point of entry to the “admissibility
review” secondary where issues related to immigration law are addressed
must be marked: “U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Admissibility
Review Secondary”. The Baggage Examination and Agriculture Control
Secondary are located downstream from the international baggage claim and
adjacent to the main exit lanes from the processing facility. The entrance to
the baggage examination area is marked: “U.S. Customs and Border
Protection, Baggage Examination Secondary”. The entrance to the
agriculture control area is marked: “U.S. Customs and Border Protection,
Agriculture Control Secondary”. If these areas are consolidated within a
common space, the entrance is marked: “U.S. Customs and Border
Protection, Baggage Examination and Agriculture Control Secondary”.
Each area, regardless of configuration, must be clearly recognized by
members of the traveling public and contain all other applicable operational
signage (Wayfinding, Identification, Notification, and Statutory / Regulatory)
as outlined within these standards and as required to meet all operational
requirements.
• Identify the cashier’s office to passengers paying duty as: “Cashier”.
• Identify public toilets.
• Do not identify operational spaces if entered directly from the CBP processing
floor. For example, Search Room, Agricultural Laboratory etc.
Doors accessing the CBP sterile perimeter from an area transited by the public or other
unauthorized persons are labeled: “Warning: Restricted Area, Do Not Enter”. This
includes doors providing officer access from the non-sterile side of the terminal; the non-
secure side of a cart return corridor door (if a cart system is used), the public side of the
main processing facility exit doors and the ingress side of all emergency exits.
In addition to the labeling required by the Life Safety Code, CBP also requires
emergency exits to be marked: “Warning: Emergency Exit Only, Door Monitored by
Alarm”.
If a door entering an area where CBP canines are housed could be accessed by
members of the traveling public, label: “Warning: Restricted Area, Do Not Enter”.
After entering the primary processing area and selecting a processing lane, passengers
move forward until they are stopped 7’-0” before reaching the primary booths at a 3”
wide holdback line scribed on the processing floor.
At high volume mid-size and large facilities accommodating a number of travelers from
various countries, the traffic control signs are located on the face of each primary booth
adjacent to the processing lane served. Minimum letter height is 2”. Programmable
dynamic signage, controlled from the CCC or other CBP designated area, is located
directly above the holdback line over each processing lane to identify the type of
passenger that will be processed at the associated primary booth. As traffic will often
vary from location to location, consult the CBP Port Director to determine the specific
sign types that will be required for the facility being constructed. Minimum English letter
height is 3”. Typical sign types are illustrated as follows:
• VISITORS
• PERMANENT RESIDENTS
• U.S. CITIZENS
• CREW
• DIPLOMATS
At appropriate intervals above the holdback line use signs which request passengers to:
Exit Podium
After primary processing, passengers proceed to the CBP exit podium located at the
head of the main exit lanes from the facility unless otherwise directed to secondary
processing by a CBP officer. Directly over each exit lane a sign must read:
Minimum letter height is 3”. Lettering for additional languages can be slightly smaller.
Consider proximity to intended viewers.
Provide a sign viewed by passengers just prior to exiting the CBP facility, which
expresses appreciation for their cooperation. Content is as follows:

CHAPTER 5 - SECURITY
5.1 INTRODUCTION
The rapid growth of foreign travel has resulted in the expansion of existing passenger
processing facilities, the construction of a number of new international terminals and a
substantial increase in traffic which requires the development of electronic systems to
assist U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in reducing the risk associated with
the smuggling of aliens and contraband and other forms of criminal activity at the United
States borders. In recent years the threat of terrorist activity against U.S. citizens and the
heightened enforcement of laws controlling the importation of contraband have made
these systems even more crucial.
The electronic systems specified in this chapter permit CBP to assure that all
passengers, crews and baggage carried aboard an international arriving ship enter the
processing area in a sterile condition and remain in that condition until fully processed.
This chapter offers an overview of the design standards and performance specifications
for the CBP Physical Security System (PSS) to be provided. Midsize and large facilities
are specifically addressed. Smaller facilities may require less complex systems. The
physical security standards outlined in this chapter are minimum requirements
established for Officer and passenger safety, the protection of CBP assets, maintaining
the integrity of the border, and operational considerations. These baseline standards
may require the application of additional security systems to be provided based on
project specific operational requirements, risk and risk mitigation strategies or policy and
regulatory mandates.
In addition, these protection systems and strategies should be incorporated into a
comprehensive security plan collaboratively developed by all stakeholders that outlines
the equipment, procedures, maintenance, responsibilities, contacts, and other
information associated with the implementation and operation of the PSS. Coordination
with CBP is required for determination of project specific security system requirements
and operations. CBP will assist planners of these facilities in determining the level of
physical security necessary.
5.2 RESPONSIBILITIES
At Preclearance sites the PSS allows CBP personnel to monitor the CBP operations and
the movement of processed passengers and baggage from the processing area to a
U.S. bound ship preventing contraband from being passed to a processed passenger,
the bodily substitution of a member of the public for a processed passenger or the
smuggling of contraband in previously screened baggage.
• Build, maintain and monitor (alarmed) point tables, authorized user tables
and other databases.
• Detect alarm, tamper and trouble conditions at all monitored points.
• Collect and process information from monitored points.
• Regulate personnel access and maintain accountability.
• Annunciate all alarm, tamper or trouble conditions, advisories and control
input errors.
• Maintain a time-stamped log of alarm, tamper or trouble conditions,
advisories and executed keyboard control functions.
• Include closed circuit television (CCTV) to monitor selected locations and
areas as specified in these standards.
• Record and playback CCTV camera inputs and automatically record alarm
events.
• Display and print system status information on demand.
Security system design and specifications must be submitted, reviewed and approved by
CBP.
At a Preclearance site, CBP processed baggage is transferred from the baggage drop
area to a secure holding room prior to being placed aboard a U.S. bound ship. The
holding room must be physically separated from other makeup areas and all portals
must have security controls limiting access to authorized persons. Where fencing is
employed to isolate this space, furnish 9-gauge chain link from finish floor to underside
of deck above (slab to slab) with floor tension cable to prevent lifting. Provide adequate
Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ) CCTV cameras to assure that tampering with processed baggage
or commingling with unprocessed baggage will not occur.
Baggage conveyors entering the international claim at a stateside Cruise Facility, if
used, must have tamper resistant shutters that are securable when the conveyor is not
in operation. Preclearance facilities must also have securable shutters at baggage drop
conveyor openings where conveyors are employed.
5.4.1. Availability
The system must be designed to operate continuously 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
All critical components shall have a UPS connected to an emergency generator power
ring. In addition, magnetic locking devices must have battery backup. The Cruise Facility
is required to provide spares for the system’s replaceable components to minimize
downtime.
The capacity of the system should be a minimum of 125% of identified requirements and
allow for a minimum growth of 100% over initial capacity. System design should also
provide for the addition of subsystem equipment by inserting the appropriate interfaces
and performing minor parameter modifications in the software.
• The system response to a valid operator request for graphic displays should
be within 2 seconds, but never more than 5 seconds.
• When requested by an operator, historical log printouts shall begin printing
within 5 seconds.
Entry to the CBP sterile area perimeter will be controlled by card reader/keypad requiring
the presentation of valid identifying information authorized by CBP. Once the system
has validated the identifying information, the door unlocks and the alarm is shunted for a
predetermined, programmable period of time allowing access to the authorized person.
In addition to controlling access to the CBP perimeter, the PSS must also control
selected portals providing access to a CBP office complex or admin support area. Doors
from the non-sterile side of the terminal or the processing floor have card reader/keypad
ingress and unrestricted egress.
The processing facility main passenger exit doors will be equipped with motion sensors
or floor pad devices which cause these doors to open automatically allowing passengers
with carts and heavy baggage unrestricted egress. No ingress is permitted unless by
authorized use of card reader/keypad.
With the exception of the main passenger exit, exiting CBP sterile areas including those
transited by international passengers requires the use of a card reader/keypad. Exiting a
CBP office complex to the processing floor or the non-sterile side of the terminal requires
only an exit pushbutton or a door activation bar (emergency exits).
Sterile Areas
Within the secure perimeter of a passenger processing facility the sterile area includes
gangways, the sterile corridor system connecting the gangways to the processing area,
processing areas, baggage claim and the government offices and support spaces.
Sterile area perimeter walls must be built from finish floor to bottom of structure above
(slab to slab). All processing area walls must be constructed of solid materials to prevent
members of the general public and unauthorized transportation line or cruise facility
employees from observing CBP operations. Sterile corridor walls can be constructed of
solid, opaque or transparent materials. Physical contact between arriving international
traffic and other persons not authorized access to these areas is strictly prohibited. Lay-
in acoustical tile ceilings in sterile corridors is permitted when a clear ceiling height of 9’-
0” can be maintained throughout. When this height cannot be achieved, provide a solid
(gypsum board) ceiling.
Public toilet rooms within the perimeter of the CBP sterile area must have solid ceilings.
Lay-in acoustical tile is not permitted. Janitorial closets adjacent to public toilet rooms
must be locked. Maintenance access panels must also be locked or require special tools
for removal.
All secure perimeter portals capable of providing unauthorized entry to the sterile area
must be controlled by card reader/keypad. Port operator/owner proposals utilizing
biometrics to authorize entry to secure portals will also be considered by CBP.
Non-Operational
Non-operational doors, primarily emergency exits, may not have card reader/keypad
control with the exception of selected portals providing authorized access to operational
areas. When an emergency exit panic bar from a sterile area transited by the public is
depressed for more than 2 seconds, a local audible and visual alarm, and an alarm in
the CCC is generated. CBP also requires emergency exits incorporate delayed egress
locking as authorized by the Life Safety Code. A 15 second delay is mandatory, but 30
seconds is preferred where permitted by local codes. Local alarms can only be canceled
by the CCC, port security, or a valid card swipe.
Operational
Controlled operational doors provide card reader/keypad access to authorized persons
without initiating an alarm unless the door remains open beyond the predetermined,
programmable access time, normally 30 seconds. Although cruise lines are responsible
for monitoring doors to assure that no one has access to a restricted area, the PSS must
report all authorized and unauthorized openings of normally closed doors to the CCC.
Alarm Monitoring
All alarms generated within the CBP sterile perimeter are annunciated at the command
and control console in the CCC. CCC operators must be able to acknowledge and
process CBP door alarms to determine an appropriate response and to release the
alarm when the area has been secured. CCC operators must also be capable of
viewing and recording the output from any CCTV camera associated with an alarm and
placing an alarm point in by-pass mode allowing repeated alarms resulting from testing
or equipment failure to be ignored.
• CCTV controls allowing the selection of any camera or camera group for
display on any available monitor, sequencing of camera views and control of
PTZ cameras.
• Alarm controls permitting an operator to acknowledge, process and release
alarm events, place alarm points in bypass mode or transfer responsibility to
another AWS. Alarms requiring continuous monitoring must be transferable to
a CBP approved monitoring location when the facility is closed.
• Query controls allowing an operator to generate and print reports from the
access control/alarm database or history logs.
At larger facilities, securable remote public address stations are often located at the
beginning of the primary queuing area and at the head of baggage claim. CBP strictly
controls this system and outside access is prohibited with two exceptions. Transportation
line representatives assisting passengers can be granted limited access and port
security should have full access to all zones in the event of an emergency.
6.1 INTRODUCTION
At CBP cruise ship passenger processing facilities, the U.S. government furnishes and
installs data processing and telecommunications systems that permit CBP to efficiently
process ships and enforce laws that ensure border integrity. Other electronic systems,
as defined in these standards, are furnished, installed, and maintained by the port
operator. This includes all necessary site modifications required to meet CBP
standards. The standards described address typical installations. As each facility is
unique and variances occur from facility to facility, the CBP Office of Information &
Technology (OIT) must be involved during project planning. OIT will furnish specific
computer and communications rooms’ layouts and equipment specifications for each
facility, and is solely responsible for making any changes to the specifications outlined in
this chapter. This includes any emerging changes in technology required to support
CBP operations.
• Processing Booths
• Counter Terrorism Response (CTR) Suite
• Secondary Processing Area(s)
• CBP General Office
• Passenger Analysis Unit (PAU) / Intelligence Office
Since wiring access to many areas can only be achieved through the use of properly
placed and sized conduit, planners must consult with CBP in the early stages of project
development. Local CBP officials can provide an OIT contact.
It is the sole responsibility of the port operator to furnish and install sufficient cabling and
conduit to support the telephone and data circuits in the CBP computer and
communications rooms. This responsibility includes providing appropriate cabling and
conduit from the main DEMARK room to the computer and communications rooms and
between this room and any associated closet. The Office of Information and
Technology will make all final decisions regarding CBP facility needs as they
relate to these specifications, therefore it is critical for the port operator to
coordinate with CBP OIT early in the planning phase.
Power Supply
The port operator is required to provide an isolated power supply for both the LAN and
telecommunications systems with emergency generator backup capable of supporting
the initial power load of all equipment in the computer and communications rooms. In
addition, the port operator must incorporate a seamless cutover mechanism switch to
the facility’s main back-up power generator to fully support CBP operations in the event
of a power loss or interruption.
Workstations
As previously noted, the installation of conduit in open offices is generally necessary
since desks and workstations are, in many cases, not adjacent to a convenient wall
surface. The CBP wiring standard for each desk or workstation is (1) voice drop, (1) data
drop and (2) 120 VAC quadruplex electrical outlet grounded with fan or ventilation
system to avoid overheating.
Most workstations on the processing floor contain computer equipment. Such included
equipment: are primary processing booths and secondary processing workstations.
Each officer position at a workstation has a CPU, monitor and screen printer.
Workstations not adjacent to a wall surface will require properly sized conduit. Provide a
4-inch diameter opening (minimum) above the floor conduit to route cable to the data
and power outlets. Allow adequate room behind the CPU and monitor for cables and
connectors and sufficient space in front of the monitor for a keyboard and other pointing
devices. Inside the cabinet, install (1) data outlet, and (2) 120 VAC quadruplex electrical
outlet for the computer equipment grounded with fan or ventilation system to avoid
overheating. In addition, each workstation must also have a minimum of (1) voice outlet.
