"For almost a decade, INTERPOL Washington, the United States National Central Bureau (USNCB), has empowered the nation’s law enforcement to use both national and INTERPOL criminal indices. The process of linking states together to use INTERPOL systems, known as federation, will assist officers across the country in making determinations about persons or items they encounter in the field: suspected fugitives, victims, stolen vehicles, stolen travel documents, etc."

The Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) puts the USNCB Federation initiative in its DISPATCH Headlines for the June issue of the e-newsletter.
