Today
the good folks at DHS Infrastructure Security Compliance Division got around to
publishing their June update for the CFATS program. The new data covers the
month of May so my charts will call the latest data points ‘May 2014’ instead
of ‘June 2014’. Generally speaking the number of both authorized site security
plans and approved site security plans continues to rise while the total number
of covered facilities continues to fall.
Diagram
1 shows the last 12 months’ worth of data for the program. We continue to see
an increasing number of authorized and approved site security plans.

Diagram
2 shows the rate of authorizations and approvals; only two months have seen a
higher rate of site security plan approvals.

Diagram
3 shows the number of facilities covered by the CFATS program. The total number
of covered facilities continues to decline. ISCD still does not provide an
explanation of how much this decline is related to decreased risk or poor
economic activity.
