But I just wanted to copy the military scheme as far as possible, without inventing new keys, because marina somehow wouldn't seem fitting either. Marine_operations or maritime sound good, but they wouldn't be fitting for river police, would they? Police=water might be an option, though, albeit it's ambiguous, also (a police to control water quality?). > police=prison.

Prisons are generally not run by the police, but specialized services. Still, there are police prisons that are separate from police stations. Here in Frankfurt, there used to be a proper police prison in its own building (https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1591630307). It's out of use today, though, but I imagine that the concept might still exist in other places.

Operator would be a good option to hold the name of the police force operating the facility, just in the sense you've mentioned.
