The Government Accountability Office (GAO) released a report yesterday highlighting the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) efforts to improve and manage its Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) program. According to the report, DHS has created a system for identifying the facilities that should be reporting their CFATS holdings to the agency but failed to do so. DHS has also begun to “enhance its ability to assess risks and prioritize facilities,” as well as conducted proper reviews of security plans and inspecting facilities to verify compliance.
