Does "bureau agents" refer to "FBI agents"? The source of the news points to "Washington, DC, Bureau ChiefBio." I am puzzled by what the "bureau" refers to.

================
Up until now, the Flynn scandal has generally centered on his criminal case, in which Flynn, Donald Trump’s first national security adviser, was charged with—and pleaded guilty to—lying to FBI about his calls with Kislyak. Flynn told bureau agents that he had not discussed the sanctions imposed on Russia by the Obama administration in response to Vladimir Putin’s attack on the 2016 election.

Yes, "the bureau/Bureau" refers to the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation).
