History
On July 31, 1924, U.S. Border Patrol, Spokane District, established a sub-office at Havre, Montana, which eventually became the Havre Sector Headquarters in 1933.
In 1965, the City of Havre donated nearly five acres of land for the Sector Headquarters for a new headquarters building. With the oversight of the U.S. General Services Administration, the construction of the new Havre Sector Headquarters building was completed and occupied on January 17, 1966.
Havre Sector Headquarters accommodates offices for the command and administration staff, and a communications center, along with radio and computer technicians.
The primary mission of the Havre Sector Headquarters and the command staff is to plan, direct, and manage the U.S. Border Patrol Sector-wide program of enforcement of criminal laws and other provisions under the auspices of the Immigration and Nationality Act, along with directing and implementing programs related to the prevention of illegal entry of terrorists and terrorist's weapons of mass destruction into the United States.
