In response to significant threats or incidents involving Federal crimes under the criminal jurisdiction of the United States, the FBI may establish a JOC, a regional multijurisdictional interagency investigative, intelligence, and operations center to lead and coordinate the law enforcement response, investigative operations, and related intelligence activities.

The JOC is led by an FBI On-Scene Commander and is supported by a Federal, state, local, territorial, and tribal command group and a consequence management group, as appropriate.

The JOC is the place from which the FBI leads and coordinates the law enforcement operational response, on-scene law enforcement, and related investigative and intelligence activities.
