    Reading Time:about 17 minutes

    The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is considering removing 49 Division 1.1 explosive chemicals from Appendix A of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) regulations. These chemicals are currently regulated by both CISA and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), which creates a regulatory overlap. By removing these explosives from CFATS, the agency aims to reduce the regulatory burden on facilities overseen by both CISA and ATF, without compromising security. CISA is seeking public comments on this proposal to better understand its potential impact on facility security and regulatory obligations.

    The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is thinking about not keeping track of certain explosive chemicals anymore because they are already watched by another group called the ATF.
