Congress finds the following: On October 19, 1995, six months after the Oklahoma City bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, President Clinton issued Executive Order 12977, creating the Interagency Security Committee to address continuing Government-wide security for Federal facilities. The Committee’s mandate is to enhance the quality and effectiveness of physical security in, and the protection of, non-military Federal facilities in the United States, whether Government-owned, -leased, or -managed.
Today, the Committee is comprised of chief security officers and other senior executives from 54 Federal agencies and departments. On September 7, 2012, the primary members of the Interagency Security Committee approved The Risk Management Process: An Interagency Security Committee Standard , which was issued in August 2013. Consistent with Executive Order 12977, The Risk Management Process: An Interagency Security Committee Standard is intended to be applied to all facilities in the United States occupied by Federal employees for non-military activities.
This standard defines the criteria and processes that those individuals responsible for the security of such a facility should use to determine such a facility’s security level, and provides an integrated, single source of physical security countermeasures for all such non-military Federal facilities. It is the sense of Congress that the Interagency Security Committee standards for Federal facilities established by the Interagency Security Committee in the document entitled The Risk Management Process:
An Interagency Security Committee Standard published in August 2013 and successor documents should be utilized, as appropriate, to protect all non-military Federal facilities. The Secretary of Homeland Security shall submit to the Committee on Homeland Security of the House of Representatives and the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs of the Senate an assessment of the degree to which the standards specified in the The Risk Management Process: An Interagency Security Committee Standard , approved by the Interagency Security Committee, is utilized by all non-military Federal facilities and what, if any, barriers exist to utilization of such standards.
