In 2007, the United States Department of Homeland Security launched the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS). The industry has been trying to abide by the standards and understand what it entails. Hercules High Security products can aid your business in achieving the protocol for this legislation.
What is CFATS?
The Department of Homeland Security released regulations for high-risk chemical facilities that include plants, electrical facilities, refineries, and universities. There has been much confusion about these laws, but they allow the DHS to control security in chemical facilities in the United States. Currently, two hundred eighteen facilities have been required to submit Site Security Plans (SSP) because they were designated as “Tier 1” and high-risk. Each tier must submit these plans but the DHS began handing out Tier titles starting with the highest hazard facilities. The largest group, Tier 4, includes 2,215 facilities.
How can Hercules High Security help with CFATS Compliance?
The team at Hercules High Security is equipped with the knowledge and materials needed to secure these high-risk structures. Hercules specializes in high security fencing and anti-terrorism cables. Cables include a vehicular restraint system and an anti-ram cable among others. We have a specifically designed perimeter fence for CFATS compliance. This satisfies the RBPS 1 – Restrict Area Perimeter regulation. In addition to the fence, Hercules can install a miniature mesh locking mechanism.
