The Department of Homeland Security's Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standard, including Appendix A: Chemicals of Interest List, is designed to provide risk assessment standards and guidance to facilities that use or make certain chemicals. Appendix A was developed in conjunction with the Environmental Protection Agency to identify hazardous materials that could be used as potential chemical or biological weapons or explosives. If your company uses particular quantities of chemicals in the processing of your products, you may be identified as an at-risk chemical facility.
