Strengthen Security and Compliance with Expert CFATS Support

The Department of Homeland Security’s Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) program regulates high-risk chemical facilities to reduce the risk of terrorist attacks involving hazardous chemicals, known as Chemicals of Interest (COIs). Our consultants help facilities navigate CFATS requirements from applicability determination through authorization, inspections, and ongoing compliance. With extensive experience in every phase of the program, we provide the guidance and strategies needed to protect facilities, ensure compliance, and minimize risk.

Our CFATS Compliance Support Services

See how we support facilities at every stage of the CFATS compliance process, from initial screening to long-term security planning.

We evaluate facility chemicals for CFATS applicability, prepare threshold calculations for COIs, document non-applicability determinations, and assess alternatives to opt out of reporting requirements.

Our experts prepare and submit TSAs using DHS’s Chemical Security Assessment Tool (CSAT), provide CSAT and Chemical-terrorism Vulnerability Information (CVI) training, and ensure consistency with related programs like RMP, PSM, Tier II, and TRI.

We help facilities characterize critical assets, assess threats and vulnerabilities, identify countermeasures, and analyze risk-reduction strategies.

Trinity develops SSPs addressing identified vulnerabilities, aligning with DHS’s 18 risk-based performance standards, and creating cost-effective compliance strategies.

We prepare facilities for DHS authorization and compliance inspections, conduct mock inspections, and provide hands-on assistance during official reviews.

Our team maintains compliance through updates to TSAs, SVAs, and SSPs, annual audits, custom CFATS training, and support with ongoing SSP requirements such as maintenance, inspections, and recordkeeping.

CFATS Compliance Support FAQs

The Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) is a DHS program regulating security at high-risk chemical facilities. It applies to facilities that possess Chemicals of Interest (COIs) at or above specific thresholds.

Any facility or individual possessing COIs at or above Screening Threshold Quantities (STQs) must file a Top-Screen survey with DHS. Facilities deemed “high-risk” are required to develop and maintain a security plan.

Facilities must submit a Top-Screen survey within 60 days of possessing a COI at or above the STQ. High-risk facilities then have 120 days to submit a Security Vulnerability Assessment (SVA) and Site Security Plan (SSP). Ongoing requirements include annual audits and biennial or triennial updates, depending on the facility’s tier level.

We conduct mock inspections, prepare documentation, and provide on-site support during DHS reviews to ensure facilities are inspection-ready and compliant.

Trinity offers comprehensive expertise across all phases of the CFATS program, ensuring facilities meet regulatory requirements, strengthen security measures, and reduce overall risk exposure.
