Yesterday, without fanfare or announcement, the Chemical Safety Board added a link to their new FY 2026 – 2030 Strategic Plan to their website. While the current administration continues to try to shut down the CSB, the Board has crafted their required look into the future. The report outlines three strategic goals and sets forth the objectives that support those goals, and the steps that the Board intends to take to achieve those ends.
The three goals are:
Goal 1: Safeguard U.S. communities, workers, the environment, and our nation’s critical industries by preventing recurrence of significant chemical incidents through independent investigations.
Goal 2: Advocate safety and achieve change through recommendations, outreach, and education.
Goal 3: Create and maintain an engaged, high-performing workforce.
Commentary
As with most organizations' goal statements, this document is broad in its scope and sweeping in its intent, and vague in its performance measures. In today’s political environment, however, the important thing is that the Board stood up and planned for their future. They still need to hope for Congressional funding in the face of presidential opposition. The publication of this Strategic Plan helps provide support for Congressional action.
