On 30 March 1987, a meeting was held at the United States Park Police (USPP) Headquarters regarding the "Mobilization for Justice and Peace in Central America and Southern Africa" (Tabs A & B) demonstration which is planned to take place at the Headquarters Compound on Monday, 27 April 1987. The following information was provided: o Demonstrators are expected to number between 600 and 1,000. o Transportation will be via some twelve buses and an unknown number of vans and private automobiles. o The staging area has been identified as the Langley Fork Park located on Georgetown Pike (Rt. #193) (Tab E) where the demonstrators will be dropped off and picked up. o The demonstrators plan to depart Washington, D.C., at 0630 hours. A rally at the staging area will commence at approximately 0700 hours. Following the rally (length of time unknown), the demonstrators will proceed to the Route #123 Gate by walking along the shoulder of Routes #193 and #123. A second group of demonstrators will proceed to the George Washington Parkway entrance via vans. o The demonstrators at the Route #123 entrance will gather on the triangle on Route #123 and surrounding grassy areas on both sides of the Headquarters access road (Tab E) . 0 The demonstrators on the George Washington Parkway entrance will be dropped off on the grassy areas on both sides of the access road leading to the Parkway gate (Tab E).

All arrests arc planned to take place on federal property. Demonstrators will carry banners, posters, crosses, mock tomb stones, bullhorns, etc. o At this time there is no plan to demonstrate at Langley Fork Park or disrupt traffic along Route #193. However, details regarding the staging area activities are unclear at this time. o Application for this demonstration (Tab C) was filed with the National Park Service on 23 March 1987. It is anticipated that the permit will be honored. The permit shows the demonstration taking place from 0630/0700 to 1800 hours. However, the demonstration spokespersons indicated that the demonstration will be over by 1330 hours. o Per Fairfax County Police Department (FFX CO PD), a permit for demonstration with Fairfax County is not required for this event. o News media coverage is expected but the extent is not currently known. 2. Following the meeting, discussions were held with representatives of the USPP, GSA/Federal Protective Service and FFX CO PD re matters of jurisdictional concern. It was tentatively agreed that USPP will assume responsibility of all areas adjacent to the George L'ashington Parkway entrance as well as along the Turkey Run Access Road. The Federal Protective Service (FPS) will be responsible for the demonstration pathes along Routes #123 and #193, the Route #123 access road, and areas along the east perimeter fence line. FPS will also have concurrent jurisdiction with the Security Protective Service (SPS) within the headquarters Compound. FFX CO PD will be responsible for all areas along Routes #123 and #193 beyond the Agency property line and will also act as backup for the FPS since FFX CO PD also holds concurrent jurisdiction on the Headquarters property. The SPS along with the FPS will be responsible for all areas inside the Headquarters Compound. However, FPS will conduct all arrests; SPS will only become involved, if necessary.

The identification of holding areas, methods of transporting arrestees, as well as other legal and logistical concerns are being coordinated among the appropriate Agency components arid the various law enforcement agencies involved. headquarters Security Division/OS (IISD) will function as the coordinator. Updates will be provided as they become available. (The next demonstrators' meeting is tentatively scheduled for 16 April 1987 at 1000 hours at USPP headquarters). 3. The Office of General Counsel (OGC) has been requested by I-tSD to petition the National Park Service to revoke the demonstration permit on the basis that the exact nature of the civil disobedience is not being volunteered or assured. it will also disrupt the flow of rush hour traffic on the George Washington Parkway and will endanger the lives of the demonstrators and motorists alike. 4. HSD, with OGC concurrence, is pursuing arrangements with the FPS to restrict the demonstrators at the Route #123 access road to the Agency property line (some 20/30 feet inside of our actual property line). This should contain the demonstrators some several hundred feet from the Visitor Center parking lot. 5. PLANNED HSD ACTION: IiSD has established a working group to orchestrate general strategy planning among all Agencies and internal components involved. Participation will be extended to the USPP, FFX CO PD, FPS, Federal Highway Administration, OGC, Office of Logistics, Public Affairs Office, and other Office of Security and Agency components as deemed appropriate. 6.
