Office of Law Enforcement | Dover, DE
The Delaware Bay is one of the four most important shorebird migration sites in the world, and it boasts the second-highest concentration of shorebirds in North America. The Delaware Bay is also home to the world’s largest population of horseshoe crabs and provides wintering and migratory habitat to many species of songbirds, waterfowl, and raptors, including bald eagles. The Dover Office of Law Enforcement is centrally located in Delaware, our nation’s first state. This office conducts investigations occurring primarily within the state and the surrounding area of the Delmarva Peninsula. Agents work closely with the Fish and Wildlife Enforcement Section of the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, and other state and federal agencies, to investigate violations of the Lacey Act, Migratory Bird Treaty Act, Endangered Species Act and Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, as well as other Federal wildlife statutes, in keeping with the priorities of the Office of Law Enforcement.
