چکیده

What I would like to discuss and bring your attention to is my recent trip to Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, December 12, 2007. I traveled, to testify before a House subcommittee citing the potential for acts of terrorism on any of the thousands of chemical processing plants throughout the country and urged Congress to give the Department of Homeland Security permanent and continuing authority to regulate chemical security in the United States. My complete testimony is available on the Mary Kay O’Connor Process Safety Center website. This testimony came as part of a congressional hearing on the “Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Act of 2008,” a proposed amendment to the Homeland Security Act of 2002 that provides for the regulation of certain chemical facilities. The subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, is part of the larger Committee on Homeland Security that was created by the U.S. House of Representatives in 2002 in the aftermath of September 11, 2001 to provide Congressional oversight over the development of the Department of Homeland Security.
