  • Type:Proposed Rule
    Citation:86 FR 495
    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.

    Simple Explanation

    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. This change could make it easier for places that have to follow both group's rules by having fewer rules to follow.

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced its plan to allow certain contractors to access information that could be confidential business information (CBI) related to fuel quality programs. This information is important for monitoring compliance with environmental regulations. Contractors involved will sign non-disclosure agreements to ensure the privacy of the data. The public has until February 22, 2021, to submit comments on this action, which should be done preferably via the EPA's website, email, or other specified methods.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to let some helpers, called contractors, look at secret plans about gas and fuel to make sure everything is safe and clean. People can tell the EPA what they think about this by sending messages before February 22, 2021.
