ISCD Updates 3 FAQ Responses – 8-26-20

Today the CISA Infrastructure Security Compliance Division (ISCD) updated the responses to three frequently asked questions (FAQs) on the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) Knowledge Center. The changes were minor, non-substantive editorial changes dealing with the provision of links to official documents.

The three updated FAQs were:

FAQ # 1398 Are chemicals of interest (COI) in hazardous waste to be counted towards a screening threshold quantity (STQ)?

FAQ #1481 What factors does a facility need to account for when calculating whether a facility possesses the screening threshold quantity (STQ) for a theft/diversion chemical of interest (COI)

FAQ #1673 Where can I read about the current indefinite extension to the Top-Screen deadline for agricultural production facilities?
