{{Main|United States Park Police}}

The United States Park Police (USPP) is the oldest uniformed federal law enforcement agency in the United States. It functions as a full service law enforcement agency with responsibilities and jurisdiction in those NPS areas primarily located in the Washington, D.C. Parks, San Francisco, and [[New York City Parks]] areas.

In addition to performing the normal crime prevention, investigation, and apprehension functions of an urban police force, the park police are responsible for policing many of the famous monuments in the United States and share law enforcement jurisdiction in all lands administered by the service with a force of national park rangers tasked with the same law enforcement powers and responsibilities.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.nps.gov/uspp/ |title=United States Park Police |publisher=Nps.gov |access-date=December 31, 2013 |archive-date=February 19, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150219025821/http://www.nps.gov/uspp/ |url-status=live}}</ref>
