  1. James R. Cash SCADA System

  2. Main Functions • Acquire remote data • Permit centralized control of pipeline • Keep historical record of operation • Provide automated leak detection

  3. Olympic Hardware • 2 host computers (primary–standby) • 1 centralized computer control center • 1 host running automated leak detection • 2 controller stations (6 displays each) • Operators/ software developers terminals

  4. Main Menu Screen

  5. Bayview Terminal Screen

  6. Typical Station Screen

  7. Trend Screen

  8. SCADA Data Acquisition • Polling of various pipeline/station sensors • Controllers reported slow down near time of rupture • Noticeable change in polling pattern

  9. Missing Files • SCADA and computer operating system keep maintenance, security and operating logs • Computer logs missing from backup computer • SCADA logs intact • No explanation for missing files

  10. Security/Outside Tampering • Some security issues were found • Common login with all system privileges • SCADA was connected to outside network – internet • No evidence was found to suggest slowdown was caused by outside tampering

  11. SCADA Changes • Newer more capable computer system • Multiple control sites • Secure redundant network • Firewalls to outside world • Installed development network
