ISCD Updates 5 FAQs – 7-6-20

Today the CISA Infrastructure Security Compliance Division (ISCD) updated the responses to five frequently asked questions on the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) Knowledge Center. This is part of an on-going effort at ISCD to make FAQ editorial changes designed to: reflect changes in program management (CISA branding), to change URL’s to page links (see the similar 6-22-20 blog post) and to make the responses more helpful; rather than reflecting changes in ISCD policy.

The five FAQ responses updated today were:

FAQ #1540 How does a facility count the amount of release-flammable chemical of interest (COI) within a mixture that is not a fuel with a National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) rating of 1, 2, or 3?

FAQ #1642 I am already a Chemical-terrorism Vulnerability Information (CVI) Authorized User. Do I need to take the CVI training again to maintain my CVI Authorized User status?

FAQ #1644 What should be done with my Chemical-terrorism Vulnerability Information (CVI) Authorization User number?

FAQ #1650 What happens after a facility submits its Security Vulnerability Assessment (SVA)/Site Security Plan (SSP)?

FAQ #1653 If a facility is in a location where another entity provides certain security measures (e.g., industrial park, co-located facility; office park, etc.), can the facility include these security measures as part of its Security Vulnerability Assessment (SVA)/Site Security Plan (SSP)?

Actually, FAQ #1540 does not appear to have had any changes made since the last time it was updated, last week.
