Thank you for visiting the San Diego Harbor Police Department’s web site.  Fiscal year 2009/2010 will be an exciting and enjoyable year. The 166 men and women of our department provide policing and marine firefighting for the San Diego Bay, airport law enforcement at the San Diego International Airport (Lindbergh Field), and vehicle patrol on land around the tidelands.  The primary mission of the San Diego Harbor Police Department is to provide the highest standard of Public Safety and Homeland Security through a dedicated team of highly trained professionals. We are accomplishing this through an overarching Port/Seaport security strategy, which focuses on regional integration and relationships with local, state and federal agencies. 

The Harbor Police Departments Business Plan (FY2007 – 2011) will continue to focus on fostering a culture of service through collaboration, integrity and professionalism; achieving a high performance department by maximizing the potential of all personnel; providing a highly effective and efficient Public Safety and Homeland Security service as a regional asset; promoting a multi-disciplined Public Safety and Homeland Security organization as a regional resource; strengthening the Harbor Police Department’s financial performance; assessing, pursuing, and implementing functional technology for the current and future needs of the department; and, developing and maintaining a high level of resources and infrastructure.

The department is made up of a diverse group of 166 employees with 141 sworn officers and an annual budget for FY2009/2010 of $30.1 million.

My responsibility as Chief of the Harbor Police Department is to ensure that the vision of the department as a dynamic public service organization and national leader in Public Safety and Homeland Security is realized. The Harbor Police is comprised of a team of officers and employees that are empowered, respected and committed to this agency.  I am confident that any interaction you have with members of this department will be helpful and professional.  Please enjoy our web site and feel free to contact us directly with your questions or comments.
