The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is proposing a rule aimed at protecting federal properties more effectively. This rule would give more authority to DHS's Federal Protective Service to manage security on and around federal buildings. The rule includes updates to existing regulations, like prohibiting drones, smoking, and unauthorized camping on federal property. It also extends some regulations to areas outside federal properties where necessary to protect the properties and the people there.

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) has proposed a new interpretation of security regulations for nuclear power plants. This interpretation would allow these facilities to integrate law enforcement responses into their physical protection programs, through a concept called Security Bounding Time (SBT). The goal is to enhance flexibility and site security while ensuring coordination with law enforcement agencies during potential security incidents. The NRC is inviting public comments on the proposal and plans to hold a public meeting to discuss it further.
