The public access to the 2014 Chemical Sector Security
Summit agenda
was made available sometime yesterday afternoon. This does not look like a ‘draft’
agenda; it is cleaned up pretty good (other than the nearly blank page 2 that
makes it look like a short document).
This agenda makes this version of the CSSS appear to be much more of a
government show with fewer industry presentations than has been common.
Some of the interesting topics include:
• Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism
Standards (CFATS) Advanced Notice of Proposed • Rulemaking (ANPRM) Listening
Session
• Executive Order 13650 – Improving
Chemical Facility Safety and Security – Interagency Panel
• United States Coast Guard–
Updates
• Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism
Standards (CFATS) Overview
• What to Expect during a CFATS
Inspection
• Transportation:
Trucking/Rail/Pipelines
• International Trends in Chemical
Security
• Theft and Diversion
• Alternative Security Programs
under CFATS
• Outcomes and perspectives of
Executive Order 13636 Improving Critical Infrastructure
• Cybersecurity
• Research and Development: Jack
Rabbit II
• Incident Information Sharing
Tabletop Exercise – Playbook Chemical SCC SOP [closed press]
• Ammonium Nitrate
• CSAT Improvements Demo:
• Congressional Perspectives
• Local Resources and Emergency
Response
The Jack Rabbit II presentation will be of particular
interest to emergency response personnel and personnel dealing with chlorine
gas issues. This reports on a TSA project looking at a series of deliberate ‘catastrophic’
releases of chlorine gas done at Dugway Proving Grounds, UT to allow first
responders to better understand the behavior of chlorine gas in this type of
situation. I wrote about plans for this study back in 2010 (here
and here),
but little has been released to date.
