On March 24, 2022, then-Arizona Governor Douglas Ducey signed a bill authorizing concurrent criminal jurisdiction on U.S. Army Yuma Proving Ground (YPG). The change to concurrent jurisdiction will affect the way traffic violations, trespassing, and illegal dumping are punished. Prior to the change, YPG Police only had the authority to issue DD Form 1408s, which have no penalty or deterrence associated with them for individuals who are unaffiliated with the Department of Defense. Now, the YPG Police will be empowered to issue Central Violations Bureau citations, which do have financial penalties associated with them.
