New roomier digs are coming in 2013 for one of the FBI’s smallest divisions.

WAVY.com reports that the FBI will move its Hampton Roads regional headquarters from Norfolk to Chesapeake, Virginia. Special Agent in Charge John Boles told WAVY.com the new three-story office building will be about twice the size of the current field office and will include  a dedicated emergency command center, a firearms training room, a SWAT team ready room and a secured sally port.

Vanessa Torres, spokeswoman for FBI Norfolk, explained to WAVY.com the agency has two field offices in the state. The Norfolk office and its 200 employees cover the “southeastern quadrant and the Eastern Shore.” The rest of Virginia is handled by agents from Richmond and D.C.
