This morning the folks at DHS Infrastructure
Security Compliance Division (ISCD) published the latest CFATS
update covering data from January. The number of approved and authorized
site security plans at CFATS facilities continues to increase.
The number of covered facilities continues to
decline and ISCD still fails to provide any composite data on the reasons for
facilities being removed from program coverage.
The only part of this fact sheet that actually
changes from month to month is the sidebar that includes the statistics. The
bulk of the sheet is verbiage that describes the program basics. Until December
the lack of change in that verbiage was not a real issue. But with the passage
of HR 4007 last December there are a number of impending changes to the CFATS
program. It would be nice if ISCD were to use this update to explain some of
those changes, particularly those that effect whether or not the currently
approve SSPs will have to be re-approved.
