Commercial
Facilities Sector
Sector
Overview
Facilities
associated with the Commercial Facilities Sector operate on the principle of
open public access, meaning that the general public can move freely throughout
these facilities without the deterrent of highly visible security barriers. The
majority of the facilities in this sector are privately owned and operated,
with minimal interaction with the federal government and other regulatory
entities.
The Commercial
Facilities Sector consists of eight subsectors:
- Public Assembly (e.g., arenas, stadiums, aquariums,
zoos, museums, convention centers).
- Sports Leagues (e.g., professional sports leagues
and federations).
- Gaming (e.g., casinos).
- Lodging (e.g., hotels, motels, conference centers).
- Outdoor Events (e.g., theme and amusement parks,
fairs, campgrounds, parades).
- Entertainment and Media (e.g., motion picture
studios, broadcast media).
- Real Estate (e.g., office and apartment buildings,
condominiums, mixed use facilities, self-storage).
- Retail (e.g., retail centers and districts, shopping
malls).
Sector-Specific
Plan
The Commercial
Facilities Sector-Specific Plan (PDF, 174 pages - 1.46 MB) details how the
2013 National Infrastructure Protection Plan's risk management framework is
implemented within the context of the unique characteristics and risk landscape
of the sector. Each Sector-Specific Agency develops a sector-specific plan
through a coordinated effort involving its public and private sector partners.
The Department of Homeland Security is designated as the Sector-Specific Agency
for the Commercial Facilities Sector.
