Sturgeon Bay Police Marine Patrol Trains To Secure Ports and Local Waterways



This past week Officers attended a week long National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA) sponsored Boater Tactical Operators Course held in Green Bay.  The course taught Officers how to operate and conduct security zone enforcement, protect high value assets such as the Tall Ship festival or when dignitaries visit by boat. As a result of this training the Sturgeon Bay Police Marine Patrol will be able to work  more closely with water patrol units from surrounding agencies and with the United States Coast Guard, which is stationed in Sturgeon Bay.
