The Department’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) manages the program in coordination with the Department of Justice and its Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Department of Homeland Security and its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and other U.S. agencies.
