Organization
In its current configuration, CGIS is divided into eight regional areas, each headed by a special agent-in-charge (SAC). That person reports to the deputy director of CGIS and is fully supported by the CGIS-HQ staff. The deputy director reports to the director of CGIS, who, in turn, reports to the Assistant Commandant for Operations or the Vice Commandant of the Coast Guard, depending on the circumstance.
