The '''Suffolk County Park Police''' was a ] in ].<ref name="website">http://www.suffolkcountyny.gov/Home/departments/parks/Park%20Police.aspx</ref> Officers were sworn in as ]s under ] state law. Police officers attended the Suffolk County Police Academy and upon graduation were assigned to a multi month field training program. Upon completion these officers were then assigned an area of the county for which they were responsible. | |||
The department was responsible for policing the largest local government park system in the United States - {{convert|46000|acre|km2}} of parkland.<ref name="website"/> The department covered 14 major parks, four ]s, four ], seven camping facilities, more than 200 historic structures, two equestrian centers, four lifeguard protected ]es with {{convert|15|mi|km}} of ocean front, picnic facilities for 20,000 people, and more than {{convert|600|mi|km}} of ]s. | |||
On October 7, 2014 the remaining full time sworn police officers of the Suffolk County Park Police were absorbed into the Suffolk County Police Department following legislation at the state and local level. | |||
