EMERGENCY ONLY: 911
Personnel are on duty 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Responsibilities
The Security Office is responsible for good order and discipline on board
CGAS Borinquen, including enforcement of all station instructions and policies
concerning visitor control, vehicle registration, animal control, traffic
regulations, and physical security of the Air Station and Housing Areas.
Security also provides initial response to fires until P.R. Fire Department
arrives. Primary firefighters are located just outside the housing areas.
General Information
Animal Control and Registration is covered in Air Station Borinquen's Organizational
Manual and requires all animals kept on base to be registered with the Security
Office. Registration consists of a numbered tag, which is attached to the
animal's collar. The tag is issued to the owner after proof has been shown
that all shots have been obtained for the pet.
Base residents are required to have their pets under voice command or on a leash at all times when the animal is outdoors. All dogs must be on a leash when outdoors between 2200 and 0600.
Ft. Buchanan's vet makes Quarterly visits to Air Station Borinquen. Services include general check-ups, shots, worm checks, etc. There are local vets in the area from whom general and emergency services may be obtained. Names and addresses are listed in the local phone book.
Privately Owned Firearms
Privately Owned Fire Arms are "NOT" authorized in the housing
area and Security can not support the storage of privately owned fire arms.
If you have fire arms, make sure that you coordinate the storage back in
the states.
Traffic Control
Traffic control is the responsibility of the Security Office. The speed
limit on board Air Station Borinquen is 20 mph, with the exception of School
Drive which is 15 mph. The slower speed on School Drive is due to the number
of children playing in this area. School Drive is also the pick up/drop-off
point for the Ramey School bus.
Full stops are required at all marked intersections. Seatbelt and child restraint seats are mandatory unless a physical disability prevents their use. Bicyclists and pedestrians have right of way at all times.
The use of cell phones while driving on any DOD or U.S. Coast Guard installation is strictly prohibited, points and fine will be accessed . If you receive a call while driving, please pull over to answer the call.
Complete traffic rules can be found in the housing manual.
Vehicle Registration
Vehicle Registration is required for all cars and motorcycles to be operated
on Coast Guard property. The following requirements must be met in order
to register your vehicle:
Valid Drivers License. For Information on Driver's License in Puerto Rico.
Current Registration for the state in which you have plates.
Current Puerto Rico Vehicle Registration Inspection sticker. This can be
obtained at any authorized inspection station.
Current ACCA. This is similar to No Fault Personal Injury Protection Insurance
in the states and is required on all vehicles operated in Puerto Rico.

Handbook
If you own a motorcycle, you are required to have motorcycle safety
training prior to riding it on any DOD or Coast Guard installation. It is
recommended that you get this training before you transfer to Puerto Rico.
You will be required to show proof of this training and proof of a state
endorsement on your Drivers License, once you arrive at the Air Station.
We periodically sponsor the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) training
here.
Required equipment for riding Motorcycles and Scooters; DOT approved helmet, Eye protection, Long sleeve shirt or jacket, Full fingered gloves, Long legged sturdy pants, and over the ankle sturdy shoes (tennis shoes are not authorized).
Vehicle Parking
Vehicle parking is prohibited along all yellow curbs, on grassy areas, and
unmarked spaces at any of the facilities. You may pull your vehicle into
your yard only to wash it.
Survival Beach
Survival beach is directly below Cliff Road and is one of the nicer beaches
in the area. A word of caution: Survival Beach is NOT Coast Guard property
and the Puerto Rican people have just as much right to be there as you do.
We have a gate at the top of the cliff through which access to the trail
leading down to Survival is gained. This gate is kept locked at all times.
The combination is available at the Security Office and WILL NOT be given
out over the phone.
It is against the law for any type of vehicle to be operated on any beach in Puerto Rico. Complaints about vehicles on the beach can be forwarded through Security to the Puerto Rican Police.
