What is the Central Violations Bureau?

The Central Violations Bureau (CVB) is a national center responsible for processing violation notices (tickets) issued and payments received for petty offenses committed on federal property. This includes violations that occur on federal property such as: 

  • federal buildings, 
  • national parks, 
  • military installations, 
  • post offices, 
  • Veteran Affairs medical centers, 
  • national wildlife refuges, and 
  • national forests. 

CVB also processes tickets for violations of federal law that occur outside federal property. For example, migratory bird offenses that occur on private property.
