Registration and Coffee

Introduction and Opening Remarks
During this session, CSP, ORNL, and PDPU will provide opening remarks. Participants will also be encouraged to introduce themselves and their perspectives and goals of the following four days.

10:00 – 10:30

International Chemical Security Threats and Mitigation Strategies
This will be a presentation largely taken from international documentation, highlighting what threats have been focused on the chemical community as well as successful and unsuccessful prevention measures.

10:30 – 11:00

Break – Refreshments Served

11:00 – 11:45

Pre-Event Questionnaire & Discussion
Questions will be tailored to gauge participant’s interest and knowledge in specific areas, while providing the speakers an understanding of what topics to emphasize. The facilitators will employ an anonymous data collection tool during this process.

Safety and Security Synergy (Including Hazards)
This session will highlight chemical safety and security overlap and how elements of chemical safety can be used as foundation for implementing chemical security plans/program at an institution.

12:30 – 13:30

Lunch

Break

Graded Approach to Chemicals of Concern
This presentation provides an approach to securing numerous chemicals with varying security recommendations assigned to them, within an academic environment.

Chemical Security Culture
This overview will cover the evolution of chemical safety and security, and development of a strong chemical security model.

Day One Wrap-up and Discussion

Day One Review

Chemical Hazards and Implementing Systems to Minimize Risks
This presentation focuses on the distinctions between safety and security in terms of awareness of the hazards associated with chemicals. Participants will complete a basic hazards assessment that will illustrate concepts discussed in the session, as well as provide information used in future tabletop exercises.

10:30 – 10:45

Break

10:45 – 11:30

Chemical Security Site Characterization Overview and Vulnerability Assessment Introduction
This session will illustrate the need to analyze sites holistically, while also incorporating physical security enhancements when identified. It will also establish a basic understanding of the vulnerability assessment (VA) process, how VA is relevant to chemical facilities, and introduce the VA process.

11:30 – 12:30

Vulnerability Assessment Tabletop Exercise – Small Industrial Facility and University
The participants will examine a simulated small chemical industrial facility layout as well as a university layout to determine potential vulnerabilities and hazards.

Lunch

13:30 – 14:30

Vulnerability Assessment Tabletop Exercise Participant Presentations
The participants will share their observations of identified vulnerabilities.

Physical Protection Table Top Exercise – Small Industrial Facility and University
Participants consider low-cost, high-impact upgrades to their facilities. They will then switch groups and identify weaknesses in the systems designed by their peers.

Day Two Wrap-up

Day Two Review

Site Tour of PDPU Facilities (TBC)
The participants will participate in a guided tour of PDPU facilities, discuss existing security systems, and consider additional low-cost, high-impact upgrades.

10:30 – 10:45

Break

10:45 – 11:30

Transportation Security and Security of Materials Throughout the Supply Chain
This presentation relays the high-level concerns regarding the transport security of chemical materials and identifies elements of a transportation security plan for the secure transport of high consequence. We will also address cradle-to-grave management -- procurement, stockpile, Inventory, usage, and waste. This will look at the issue from both a facility perspective, as well as at the state and national level.

11:30 – 12:30

Transportation Security Tabletop Exercise
The participants will examine a simulated chemical transfer, identifying vulnerabilities and offering alternatives to the proposed activity.

Lunch

13:30 – 14:30

Insider Threat and Managing the Human Element of Security
This session discusses human influences to be considered when securing chemicals, sites and preforming analysis on threats. This is particularly important with institutions with students, visitors and high traffic areas.

Indian Academic Curriculum Development
Participants will hear from a nuclear security professor at Amity University about how she has incorporated security concepts in to her training.

Post-event Questionnaire
This activity will allow the participants to see how awareness of chemical security changes perceptions of security.

Day Three Wrap-up, Next Steps Discussion, and Certificates

Meet with Indian POCs

Tour local chemical industry facility
The goal of this outreach is to meet with local chemical professionals and to witness first hand industry practices as they relate to security of chemicals of interest at their chemical facility

Transit to second facility

Meet with Indian POCs
