Edit User Guide Available Again

Yesterday I noted that the ISCD folks at DHS had removed the CSAT SSP Edit Process User Guide from their CFATS Knowledge Center web page and that the link on their CSAT SSP web page for that document was dead. I also complained that there was no notice that it had been removed or why. Today the Knowledge Center web page has a note in the ‘Latest News’ section that the link had been restored to the User Guide.

There is still no explanation for the reason for the disappearance, but they did provide a note that it had been restored. The explanation for the old change is really only of historical significance. The fact that they noted it’s restoration in the ‘Latest News’ section of the page shows a renewed understanding of the necessity of pointing out these things. Few people are going to review this site in the detail that I do everyday, so this change would have gone unnoticed for the most part.

Chemical Security Assessment Tool Update 10-04-10

This morning DHS-ISCD made an unusual (and un-explained) change to the Chemical Security Assessment Tool web page. They removed the reference to (and the link to, of course) the recently published CSAT SSP Edit Process User Guide. The reason that this is unusual is that the link to that publication is still live and the publication is still listed on the CFATS Knowledge Center.

As soon as I learn something more, I’ll let ya’ll know.
