..."upon reasonable notice and a finding by the chief executive officer that a need exists, upon any lands, waters, and premises adjacent to the WMATA Rail System"... Clearly not only referring to Washington Metro. Area TA property. Next, refer to the limiting language ..."including, without limitation, property owned or occupied by the federal government"... That would imply, a private residence next to the metrorail that is not owned or occupied by the federal government can NOT be searched without a warrant according to the law. However if you dig a little deeper into "including, without limitation", the intent can become vague and the meaning can become whatever the federal government wants it to be... http://www.adamsdrafting.com/including-without-limitation/ ... I may be completely off base (and it wouldn't be the first time) but it has been my experience, when the government gets a new toy - they are going to play with it... Steem on... :)
