This webinar provides an overview of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) — a federal regulation that requires high-risk chemical facilities to enhance security. Implemented by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), CFATS entered its third phase over the summer: DHS notified hundreds of chemical facilities that they must complete a detailed Site Security Plan. It requires facilities to account for a wide range of security issues, ranging from perimeter security and access control to background checks and recordkeeping. Against this backdrop, the U.S. Congress began a vigorous debate regarding the future of chemical facility security — and all sides agree that it is here to stay.

Take-Aways Include:
1. Gain a high-level overview of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards and the Risk-Based Performance Standards.
2. Learn about recent Congressional activity in the context of chemical security.
3. Hear practical information about the Site Security Plan - and what to expect.

Speaker: Steve Roberts, Attorney at Law
Moderator: Robert Westervelt, Editor-in-Chief, ChemWeek
