A chemical security inspector from ISCD will provide an update on recent progress made in the CFATS program. Topics will include a discussion on how Chemical-terrorism Vulnerability Information (CVI) helps ensure that sensitive information about the Nation’s high-risk chemical facilities is safeguarded, as well as instructions and clarification on how to file your CFATS Top-Screen and if necessary your Security Vulnerability Assessment (SVA) and Site Security Plan (SSP).
This session will also be used to answer any questions concerning the 18 Risk-Based Performance Standards (RBPS) and how to select and implement appropriate protective measures for your facility.

This session will also provide insight on common trends and lessons learned encountered in the field as well as provide information on how DHS is working with local planning committees to increase information sharing.
