11. Terrorism and the Chemical Transportation Industry 1. Plug the security gaps noted in industry “Lessons Learned” & “Best Practices” 2. Work across the full spectrum of Homeland Security incidents— preparation, response, recovery 3. Adopt and adapt technology fixes 4. Organize a layered, integrated security system

12. What We Can Expect in the Future More mass casualty attacks-- More mass casualty attacks-- “few attacks in the US, but they will be closer to the Madrid rail scenario than the WTC 9/11” Terrorist conventional bombings along with WMD attempts-- Terrorist conventional bombings along with WMD attempts-- “bombs will be the most predominant form of attack” More terrorist cells and operatives will be uncovered in the US More terrorist cells and operatives will be uncovered in the US

19. Suggestions for Industry Suggestions for Industry The new industry security strategy should: The new industry security strategy should: Identify and prioritize critical infrastructure facilities. Identify and prioritize critical infrastructure facilities. Specify security roles and responsibilities. Specify security roles and responsibilities. Describe appropriate threat/alert information flows. Describe appropriate threat/alert information flows. Set the standards for actionable security plans Set the standards for actionable security plans

21. The Security Vulnerability Assessment Process 1. Project Planning Meeting--Setting the right course with the company/client 2. Facility Characterization and Critical Asset Identification--A thorough characterization of site asset characteristics and hazards 3. Identify and Prioritize the Threat--Complete evaluation of threats; internal, external, internally-assisted 4. Vulnerability Analysis--Prioritized evaluation of threats against assets 5. Risk Assessment —defining the potential for damage to or loss of an asset 6. Countermeasures Identification and Effectiveness Measurement-- Prioritized validation and justification of costs for improved security, highlighting process/operations benefits 7. Preparing the Report 8. Implementation

22. Step 3. Identify and Prioritize the Threat-

23. Threat Methodology Understand how terrorists target facilities Understand how terrorists target facilities Build a detailed, focused assessment Build a detailed, focused assessment Initial screening of sources of threat info Initial screening of sources of threat info Contact with local, state, & federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies Contact with local, state, & federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies Interviews with facility security managers Interviews with facility security managers

24. Step 4. Vulnerability Assessment

25. Vulnerability Assessment “Identification of the extent of susceptibility to exploitation, relative to the existence of any countermeasures.”

26. Two Approaches to Vulnerability Analysis 1. Asset-based analysis: assess potential targets (any attack scenarios) 2. Scenario-based analysis: assess attack scenarios (any asset)

27. VA Asset-Based Approach Where used: Where used: − “Basic” sites, i.e. no complex security challenges Key Elements Key Elements − Assess and categorize consequences − Assess target attractiveness − Identify and assess key assets Based on consequence and attractiveness Based on consequence and attractiveness Identify areas needing further protection Identify areas needing further protection

28. VA Scenario-Based Approach Where Used: Where Used: − Complex security challenges − High inherent threat Key Elements Key Elements − Identify key assets/targets − Identify applicable threats − Identify potential scenarios − Drives countermeasures for selected scenarios

29. Step 5. Risk Assessment

30. RISK Risk assessment—”a qualitative and/or quantitative determination of the probability of occurrence of an adverse event and the impact of its consequences.” Risk assessment—”a qualitative and/or quantitative determination of the probability of occurrence of an adverse event and the impact of its consequences.”

38. Importance of TUR in HS CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES Chemicals and Hazardous Materials Energy Transportation…

39. Pollution Prevention and Homeland Security Can use similar assessment methods PP personnel may be qualified to perform HS assessment, particularly in industry using hazardous chemicals PP itself reduces risks in HS – Lower toxicity – Lower volatility/explosion potential – Lower volumes store on site

40. Opportunities for TURI Appears there is lack of interaction between TUR/PP and HS TURI already has the expertise and resources for TUR/PP that can be applied directly to HS

41. What TURI Can Do? Advocate TUR to reduce HS risks Extend TURP program to TUR-HSP program Identify and prioritize the HS risks from hazardous chemicals – Use TURA data and TRI data including use amounts, locations of plants, etc. – Use chemical info including explosiveness, flammability, toxicity, etc. – Use other information about presence of symbolic, high prestige, economic, and strategic targets – Combine all the information to prioritize the HS risks Use the planning process to reduce HS risks
