Protecting and Securing Chemical Facilities from Terrorist Attacks Act of 2023
This bill extends the deadline for chemical facilities to comply with federal security standards under the Department of Homeland Security's program. It changes the compliance date from July 27, 2023, to October 1, 2028, affecting facilities currently regulated under the 2014 law. The key provision simply modifies the existing timeline without altering the security requirements themselves. This procedural change provides additional time for affected facilities to meet the established safety protocols.
