Our @CBP Ag Specialists at SeaTac International Airport discovered insect holes in beans within a traveler's belongings. These pest carriers pose a direct threat to our agricultural system, and stopping the spread of invasive species is a critical mission for CBP. #OFOproud

On October 21st, GFN leadership welcomed the newly appointed U.S. Marshal for the District of Minnesota, James Stuart, and Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Farris Wooton, for a collaborative meet-and-greet. The visit brought together CBP component heads across the GFN AOR (AMO, USBP, and OFO) to strengthen interagency partnerships, followed by an insightful tour of the National Air Security Operations Center (NASOC) facility. Stronger together in securing our communities! #GFN #OFO #AMO #USBP

Ever wondered what happens to seized produce? When feasible, our @cbp CBPAS process seized produce through an industrial disposal where it is sent to the local water treatment system. This process destroys pests and contains pathogens that threaten our agriculture. 馃崕馃崐#OFOproud
