Chemical Plant Security

This book provides the reader with the steps that Congress is taking to reduce risks to the general public of exposure to hazardous chemicals as a result of terrorist acts. The US chemical production, processing, and storage facilities are seen as a grounds for potential security breaches and thus must be equipped with the means to handle them. Accordingly, the book considers the likelihood and severity of harm that might result from terrorist attacks on chemical facilities, as well as from illicit use of such facilities to gain access to hazardous chemicals (or to precursor chemicals that can be used to produce hazardous chemicals).Schierow, Linda-Jo is the author of 'Chemical Plant Security' with ISBN 9781590336427 and ISBN 1590336429.
