Congress added a little more confusion in 2016 when a change was made so that special category federal employees (i.e., law enforcement officers, firefighters, Customs and Border Protection Officers, Air
Traffic Controllers, Supreme Court and Capitol Police Officers,
Nuclear Materials Couriers, and DSS Special Agents in the State Department) had a dividing line
of 50, rather than 55 for penalty free withdrawals from their TSP accounts.
Mr. Sullivan's letter to Secretary Johnson describes how the new anchorages could provide targets for terror attacks — two are located within three miles
of the Indian Point
nuclear plant — and that increased
traffic of barges filled with crude oil and other hazardous
materials raises the potential for collisions and spills, «which in the tidal Hudson would be difficult, if not impossible, to clean up without incurring immediate and long - term damage to drinking water resources and prime wildlife habitat.»
