Commentary
The disruptions that CISA suffered in the first year of the new Administration certainly contributed to the delay in issuing today’s notice. I hope that its publication signals that there is a resurgence of interest in chemical facility security. Since the demise of the CFATS program, I have been advocating an increased emphasis on the ChemLock program as a method, and this would certainly be a necessary first step in that increase.
