Federal law enforcement agencies include - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_law_enforcement_in_the_United_States - security for Coast Guard bases seems to be missing - I suspect that 1 or 2 of the larger USCG sites have their own security or police - specifically the air stations, the USCG Academy, maybe USCG HQ also (wherever that is)
West of the Mississippi River, much of the rural land is owned by the federal government. The mountainous forests are administered by the US Forest Service for recreational and logging uses. The rangelands are administered by the Bureau of Land Management for recreation, ranching, and oil exploration. The most scenic areas are administered by the National Park Service. Marshlands and tundra areas (in Alaska) are typically encompassed by National Wildlife Refuges operated by the US Fish & Wildlife Service. The Bureau of Indian Affairs jointly operates many Indian Reservations with local Indian Tribes. All of these agencys provide wildfire control services. Just the National Park Service provides structural fire fighting, ambulance, and police services.
There are also some large military and energy sites in the western USA. Hanford DOE, Los Alamos DOE, White Sands Missile Range, Vandenburg Air Force Base, Camp Pendleton, Camp Irwin, are some of the larger sites. Each site typically provides its own public safety resources for the protection of its workers, tenants, residents, and guests.

Info about wildfire operations under the Bureau of Indian Affairs
The BIA plays a critical role in providing wildland fire response on
Tribal lands through supporting local agency development, supplying
equipment, and providing interagency coordination. The Division of
Wildland Fire Management remains and sponsors personnel to meet
interagency standards and qualifications. Additionally, the agency has
seven interagency hotshot crews for firefighting. The BIA maintains a
fleet of over 240 wildland fire engines and 12 aircraft to effectively
respond to wildland fire and various all-risk situations across Native
American communities nationally (BIA 2024a).
[not really sure how bia operates - it seems that the national level
controls the 12 aircraft and 7 hotshot crews - but the local tribes
control the 240 engines - possiblly the national level pays for
everything - but the local tribes are able to hire their own local
people to operate the engines - we can only think of a couple of BIA wildfire helos - maybe
Seminole FL + Albuquerque NM + Window Rock AZ + maybe 1 in oklahoma + 1 in MN + 1 at ?Crow MT? ]
