Chemical Facilities - Security Issues & Risk Assessment Efforts (Hardcover)

Recognising the potential harm that a large, sudden release of hazardous chemicals poses to nearby people, state and federal governments have long regulated safety practices at chemical facilities. Historically, chemical facilities have engaged in security activities on a voluntary basis. Even before the terrorist attacks of 2001, congressional policymakers expressed concern over the security vulnerabilities of these facilities. After the 2001 attacks and the decision by several states to begin regulating security at chemical facilities, Congress again considered requiring federal security regulations to mitigate these risks. This book provides an overview of the existing statutory authority and implementing regulation concerning security issues at chemical facilities, with a focus on policy options and congressional considerations.
