The Cutter Service functions as a coast guard, federal marine police force, and naval auxiliary.

The Cutter Service provides sea and air transportation and other forms of logistical, operational, and technical support to other Maritime Executive agencies.

Federal Lighthouse Service

The Federal Lighthouse Service maintains warning lights, fog signals, and navigational buoys in Kiravian waters. Although the FLS's primary duties in the electronic age are the placement of new signals and the repair of existing ones, the Service continues ot employ some 184 lighthouse keepers serving in remote locations, especially in the Federacy's overseas possessions, as well as a fleet of nine lightships providing navigational aid in perillous arctic waters. The Federal Lighthouse Service has a rather extensive property portfolio of islands, rocks, reefs, and seaside cliffs where its markers are located, and owns more islands than any federal agency save the Federal Lands Administration.
