Method to Assess the Vulnerability of U.S. Chemical Facilities November 2002 Presents an overview of a tool for assessing the potential security risks at chemical facilities, focusing on terrorist or criminal actions that could have significant national impact or could cause the airborne release of hazardous chemicals resulting in deaths and contamination.
