Report Description:
U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) Office of Field Operations (OFO) uses the Centralized Area Video Surveillance System (CAVSS) at land ports of entry (LPOEs) to increase the safety of the public, employees, and property, but improvements are needed to address video surveillance system issues. Specifically, CAVSS experienced widespread recording gaps, instances of poorquality video and audio, areas of inadequate video and audio coverage within LPOEs, and inadequate privacy protections for detainees being held at LPOEs.
