Review - CISA Publishes CIRCIA NPRM Correction

CISA published a correction to their Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act (CIRCIA) notice of proposed rulemaking in Monday’s (available on line today) Federal Register (89 FR 47471-47472). This correction addresses the issue of the definition of ‘covered entity’ for “for pipeline facilities and systems” as outlined in CISA’s April 4th, 2024 NPRM.

Monday’s ‘correction’ would change the NPRM entry for §226.2(b)(14)(iv) to read:

“(iv) A pipeline facility or system owner or operator required to report cyber incidents by the Transportation Security Administration;”

With this correction being made to April’s NPRM, the comment period (which was to end on Monday, June 3rd, 2024) has been extended to July 3rd, 2024. I would not be surprised to see requests for a further extension of that time. Comments may be submitted through the Federal eRulemaking Portal (www.regulations.gov; Docket # CISA-2022-0010).
