Today the DHS Infrastructure Security Compliance Division
(ISCD) published the latest
issue of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) Quarterly
on the CFATS Knowledge Center. This two
page newsletter provides an update on what has been going on in the CFATS
program over the last quarter.
Actually, as befits a year-end issue, a goodly portion of
the Quarterly provides a brief review of what has been going on in the Program
over the last year. Most of the stuff included has been talked about here (and
in other ISCD forums) in more detail, but there were two paragraphs that
deserve special mention; a short recognition of the lessons learned during the
2017 Hurricane Season and a terse forward look at the upcoming (?)
reauthorization of the CFATS program.
Other items included in this issue include:
• A very brief CFATS numbers update;
• An inspection best practices
article;
• A brief (and far from comprehensive)
list of CFATS program resources;
• A brief blurb on the NAS
Improvised Explosives Study; and
• A list of recently published CFATS fact sheets and
notices
So far, ISCD seems to be doing a good job avoiding turning
this publication into a three-colored, glossy corporate report. I hope they can
keep it up.
