If you need a CFATS fence, we can help.
Hercules High Security can professionally install CFATS fencing, also known as chemical facility anti-terrorism standards fencing. We’ve worked on numerous projects that incorporate professionally installing and ensuring the security of some of the nation’s most high-risk chemical facilities. These fences are installed based upon the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s performance standards for protecting high-risk chemical facilities and are incredibly protective. The benefits of installing CFATS fences are incredibly important to maintaining our nation’s security and can help protect against terrorist attacks.
Protection Against Terrorist Attacks
CFATS fences are required by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in order to protect chemical facilities in the event of a terrorist attack. Since the chemical industry is within the media spotlight, chemical facilities are often considered hot spots for terrorist activity. If a chemical facility experiences a terrorist attack, local citizens and the nation are potentially at risk for high explosive chemical reactions or acute toxicity. The installation of a CFATS fence can help protect against terrorist attacks.
Protection of Chemicals of Interest
CFATS fences are installed for the protection of citizens from chemicals of interest that terrorists may use to wreak havoc upon the nation. Where chemicals of interests are stored at chemical facilities, there’s potential for loss of containment, release of toxic gases, theft of materials to make bombs, or release of materials to contaminate food by terrorist entities. With the installation of CFATS fences on chemical facility property, you can potentially protect citizens and chemicals from terrorists unlawfully obtaining them.
Remain in Compliance
If you are a chemical facility, you need to install a CFATS fence in order to maintain in compliance if you have chemicals of interest. By installing a CFATS fence, you can ensure that you are remaining in compliance of regulations that have been set into place by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security by the CFATS Act of 2014. The CFATS Act of 2014 uses a multi-tiered risk assessment scale to identify any facilities that may be high risk, and what security levels they need to incorporate based upon their tier to remain in compliance.
