Bill > SB327

This bill amends Pennsylvania's municipal law to establish certification requirements for police officers at Fort Indiantown Gap, a military installation. Specifically, the bill provides that installation police officers can maintain their certification if they meet three key criteria: (1) they have successfully completed the basic educational and training requirements established by the relevant commission, (2) they have satisfactorily completed the minimum in-service training hours required to maintain certification, and (3) they either currently have an active certification or were previously certified and have been continuously employed as an installation police officer at Fort Indiantown Gap, with a certification that lapsed within the last two years. The bill aims to provide a clear path for maintaining professional certification for these specialized law enforcement personnel, ensuring they meet professional standards while recognizing the unique nature of their employment at a military facility. The legislation will take effect 60 days after its passage, giving time for implementation and communication of the new requirements.
