Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a) The public
				  areas of the Pennsylvania State Capitol Building and the Capitol Complex are
				  under the jurisdiction of the Department. The public areas of the Capitol
				  include the Rotunda and its balconies; the main corridors; the grand staircase;
				  the ground floor entrances; the cafeteria, when open; the East Wing Rotunda and
				  its balconies; the first floor exterior porches and staircases; all exterior
				  building surfaces; and the Capitol grounds, defined as the property on which
				  the Capitol building is situated. The Capitol Complex consists of that property
				  which is delineated on the map in Appendix A. The public areas of the buildings
				  within the Capitol Complex include the lobbies, elevators and common
				  areas.
(b) The public areas of the
				  Capitol Complex must be maintained as intact, attractive, safe and readily
				  available to the thousands of individuals who visit and work there. The Capitol
				  Complex also must be available to individuals who wish to exercise their
				  constitutional rights to assemble and to communicate their views to government
				  officials and the public. The Department has taken steps to secure parts of the
				  Capitol Complex. The focus on these steps became more critical after the
				  September 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the
				  Pentagon in Washington and the aircraft crash in western Pennsylvania. There
				  will be designated visitor entrances with security screening checkpoints.
				  Capitol Police will conduct visitor screening using walk-through metal
				  detectors, hand held metal detectors, X-ray machines, search procedures and
				  CCTV monitors. The Department will post signs advising visitors of access
				  requirements and rights.
(c) The
				  policies and procedures in this chapter will be followed by the Department in
				  its administration, operation and preservation of the public areas of the
				  Capitol Complex. At no time will the application or administration of these
				  policies and procedures be influenced or affected by considerations of age,
				  sex, race, national origin, handicap, religion, partisan politics or the
				  content of any written or oral communication or other expressive activity.
				  Nothing in this chapter should be construed or applied in a manner that is
				  inconsistent with Chapter 85 (relating to exercise of First Amendment rights on
				  Commonwealth property), which is incorporated herein and made a part
				  hereof.
