This mandate issued by the Order shall not claim to have ownership of the entire Omicron sector and will not break local factions laws, customs and regulations unless they are in direct violation of the Order's own mission and morals. The Order - as an independent entity - has neither agenda nor any form of civil government to impose civil laws upon the residents of the Omicrons. We trust and rely instead on the self-determination and common sense of local inhabitants to govern themselves in the way those communities see fit. The intention of the regulations imposed under this protectorate is to safeguard humanity from the alien threat, its thralls and those blinded by greed and ambition pursuing alien relics and technology humanity is not ready to grasp or is too dangerous to be utilized.

Systems under monitoring: ⧫ Systems under Continued Monitoring are subject to routine operations by the Order. These operations aim to deter potential alien force breaches or serve the interdiction of dangerous cargo, technology or individuals. Any vessel obstructing Order operations will be disabled and their crews turned over to the nearest Freeport or in severe cases face termination.
Vested Interest: ⧫ The Order does not restrict its continued dedication to safeguard humanity to the far edges of discovered space. Our Operatives work to the best of their abilities across the sector to keep everyone safe. We urge everyone not to obstruct their work.

Protect the life and hard work of all Guildmembers
Inform the public about the way the Guild operates
A. Areas of Applicability
Tau Cluster:
The Independent Miners' Guild maintains installations in most known star systems within the Tau cluster, and as such, these regulations apply to all of Tau space.
Omega Cluster:
The Independent Miners' Guild maintains numerous installations in the Omega systems. This sector of space faces numerous threats from pirates and terrorists alike. In the interests of peaceful and sustainable development, these regulations thus apply to all of Omega space.
Elsewhere:
An exception is noted for the system of Newcastle, in which the laws of the Kingdom of Bretonia take precedence over Guild regulations. In case of conflict, Bretonian law will overrule Guild regulations within Newcastle.
B. Illegal Actions & Contraband
1. Base Construction:
No unauthorized construction is allowed within a 20K radius of any IMG installation without prior permission from the Guild. This prohibition extends to other parts of space which are the property of the entire Guild, namely IMG-owned mining fields and Planet Pecos.
1.1 Modular Station obligations:
All installations in Areas of Applicability must provide docking to all mainline Guild ships (vessels tagged IMG|) and if requested allow inspection. (/shop password.) In special cases, installations may also be required to provide docking access for subgroups of the Guild. Those found in violation of this regulation may have their installations forcibly deconstructed.
1.2 Non-Guild refineries:
Installations using refineries to smelt ore mined from fields in Areas of Applicability must purchase a license from the Guild, priced at 3 000 000 Sirius Credits. The valued allies and partners of the IMG will be given leeway on this requirement on a case-by-case basis. Those found in violation of this regulation may have their installations forcibly deconstructed.
1.3 Guild Defense Contracts:
All installations in Areas of Applicability have the option to purchase protection by Guild ships. The fee will be negotiated starting from a minimum baseline of 3 000 000 Sirius Credits for one month.
2. Mining Permissions:
Only Guildmembers are permitted to mine in the deposits in Taus and the Omegas. Any other vessels and mining operations will be driven away, and their illegally-mined materials confiscated.
3. Enemy transports:
Cargo vessels belonging to organizations declared hostile by the IMG, caught in a system where there is an IMG base, will have their cargo confiscated.
4. Malta Embargo:
No transport or freighter class vessels filled with a significant amount of cargo are allowed to head to Omicron Alpha. The captain will be asked to turn around and sell the goods at an installation owned by or friendly to the Guild.
5. Human Trafficking:
In the past, thousands of slaves were transported to Omicron Alpha every month. As the IMG promotes equality and freedom, such acts are considered crimes against humanity. The Guild is firmly committed to preventing the reestablishment of slavery as an institution in Sirius. Therefore if a slaver is intercepted, they are obliged to free their captives at a Guild base. If this is not possible due to docking restrictions, IMG transports will be dispatched to rescue the slaves.
6. Cardamine:
Cardamine, an extremely addictive drug, is produced on Planet Malta and distributed by the Outcasts. Any vessel transporting any form of cardamine (except in quantities clearly for personal use) will be asked to jettison their cargo. The recovered cargo will be destroyed or returned to an IMG installation for use by rescued slaves who are dependent upon it.
7. Alien materials restriction:
Pilots that have been found with alien materials of any kind in their possession are to comply with inspection. If deemed necessary, Guildmembers are authorized to confiscate these materials, as they may pose a danger to all of humanity. Guild pilots on-scene are authorized and advised to apply their discretion to this regulation, including the dispensation of temporary exemptions.
Repeat offenders against these regulations will be declared enemies of the Guild.
