Chemical Security • Prevent the loss or release of hazardous (toxic, flammable, or explosive) chemicals and precursors • Prevent the disruption (sabotage) of critical processes • Prevent the theft or diversion of chemicals which can be used as weapons (and their precursors) Note: Can be malevolent or accidental act
Initial Steps Identification of “Chemicals of Interest” DHS Chemicals List (CFATS Appendix A) • EPA Risk Management Program • Hazardous materials, such as gases that are poisonous by inhalation • Explosives regulated by the DOT (Chemical weapons & precursors, DOT placarded amounts, Weapons of Mass Effect, XOD and IED precursors)
Initial Steps Identification of Security Issues • Release (accidental or malevolent act) • Theft or Diversion • Sabotage or Contamination • Critical to Government Mission • Critical to National Economy
Initial Steps Identification of Attributes and Properties • Minimum Chemical Concentration • Screening Threshold Quantity • Local or wide area effect (PAC) • Alert, Site Area Emergency, General Emergency • Affected worker • General public
Short and Long Term Goals • Short Term: ID and 3-G • Identification • Gates • Guards • Guns • Long Term: • Inherently safe chemical processing • “Green” chemistry (Elimination and substitution) • Process intensification and inventory reduction
Conflicting Priorities Collect, concentrate, and secure or Distribute and dilute What are the risks and consequences of a singular release?
Multiple Regulations • IBC and Control Areas • DOE 151.1C (EPHA rules) • DHS- CFATS
IBC CONTROL AREAS Spaces within a building that are enclosed and bounded by exterior walls, fire walls, fire barriers* and roofs, or a combination thereof, where quantities of hazardous materials not exceeding the maximum allowable quantities per control area are stored, dispensed, used or handled.

EXAMPLE OF DETERMINING THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE QUANTITY OF A HAZARDOUS MATERIAL PER CONTROL AREA d. Maximum allowable quantities shall be increased 100 percent in buildings equipped throughout with an automatic sprinkler system in accordance with Section 903.3.1.1. e. Maximum allowable quantities shall be increased 100 percent when stored in approved storage cabinets, gas cabinets, exhausted enclosures or safety cans as specified in the Fire Code of New York State. Where Note d also applies, the increase for both notes shall be applied accumulatively.

DOE 151.1C EPHA – Emergency Planning Hazard Assessment Minimize risk and consequences of a singular release • Spill / Leak (Accident, Natural Phenomena) • Fire • Explosive release • Malevolent act
EPHA • Emergency Planning Hazards Assessment • “Pre-Plan” for emergencies • Building construction • Installed safety systems • Use and Occupancy • Inventory requiring evaluation • Engineering / Administrative controls • Emergency Conditions • Source Terms • Consequences Emergency Action Levels • Protective actions
EPHA Inventory • Material at Risk • Primary Barriers • Failure Modes • Punctures (High or low) • Cracks • Impact fractures or toppling outside of containment • Combustion • Detonation / Deflagration – Primary or Secondary
Source Term • ST = MAR * DR * ARF * RF * LPF • ST = Source Term • MAR = Material at Risk • DR = Damage Ratio • ARF = Airborne Release Fraction • RF = Respirable Fraction • LPF = Leak Path Factor
EPHA Technical Basis • Emergency Conditions • Structure Fire / Explosion • Natural Phenomena • Environmental Release • Haz-Mat Release • Malevolent Acts (minor / moderate / extreme scenario) • Workplace Accident • External hazards and threats
Consequence Calculations • Dispersion conditions • Bounded by Source Terms • Conservative case • Relative concentration (X/Q) at 95th percentile • Worst case meteorology • Locally F-1 conditions for a ground release • Average case • D-5 conditions for a ground release • Stack releases are analyzed as necessary
EPHA Protective Actions • Detection and recognition of events • Calculated to time / distance • Describe Protective Actions • Evacuation • Shelter in Place • Purging • Containment • Metering / Monitoring • Suppression
CFATS • Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards • Published in April, 2007 • DOE and DoD exempt 6cfr \ TITLE 6 - HOMELAND SECURITY (6 CFR) \ 6 CFR PART 27--CHEMICAL FACILITY ANTI-TERRORISM STANDARDS
CFATS – Regulation Overview Step 1: Trigger Top Screen (STQ) • Identify High-risk Chemical Facilities. • Assign Risk Tiers • Identify Vulnerabilities at High-risk Chemical Facilities. • Develop And Implement Site Security Plans • Inspect Facilities to Ensure Vulnerabilities are Adequately Addressed and Verify Risk-based Performance Standards. Step 2: Perform Top Screen Step 3: Receive Preliminary Tiering Step 4: Perform SVA Step 5: Develop Site Security Plan Step 6: DHS Review of Site Security Plan Step 7: Inspections/Audits Step 8: Implement Site Security Plan
Chemical Security Assessment Tool (CSAT) • CSAT backbone of the CFATS program • Top-Screen • Places a facility in a preliminary tier or determines that it is excluded from the regulation. • Security Vulnerability Analysis (SVA) • Assesses security measures in place that mitigate or reduce the likelihood of success of an attack on an asset. • Site Security Plan (SSP) • Captures specific security measures the facility has or will implement to meet the applicable risk-based performance standards (RBPS).
Top Screen • Chemicals of Interest (COI) list or Appendix A. • Any Appendix A chemical at or above its screening threshold quantity (STQ) must complete and submit a CSAT Top-Screen to DHS.
Security Vulnerability Assessment • Asset characterization • Threat Assessment • Security Vulnerability Analysis (SVA) • Risk Assessment • Countermeasure Analysis
Tier Level and Risk Based Performance Standards (RBPS) • Risk tier I-IV assigned by DHS • RBPS serve as the security building blocks for the CFATS program. • RBPS drive the security performance at facilities in each of the four risk-based tiers. • RBPS provide facilities with flexibility and allow for the use of existing measures, ideas and expertise. • RBPS cover various aspects of security. • A facility only has to meet those RBPS that apply to it.
RBPS and Site Security Plan • Restrict Area Perimeter • Secure Site Assets • Screen and Control Access (HRP) • Deter, Detect, Delay • Shipping, Receipt, and Storage • Theft and Diversion • Sabotage (Insider threat) • Cyber (Process control, SCADA)
RBPS • Response • Monitoring • Training • Personnel Surety (HRP & Background checks) • General elevated threat escalation process • Specific threat, vulnerability, risk process • Reporting significant events and suspicious activity • Establish ERO • Records
SSP Testing • Training and Drills • Corrective Action Plans • Frequent review based upon current threats • Independent inspection and audit • RED / TIGER team approach
