This slide presentation outlines a project to produce a Screening Tool and a sector-specific guidance (SSG) for the Water and Wastewater Sectors to support Federal decision-making and to encourage owners and operators in the sector to manage their terrorism risks. Objectives include: evaluate existing sector-specific methodologies for compatibility with RAMCAP and integrate to make them RAMCAP compatible, or incorporate their methods into RAMCAP Screen and SSG; draft the RAMCAP process and metrics, or variations on existing tools, and pilot test them in selected utilities; tailor the method to the specific technologies, practices and culture of the respective sectors; refine through a series of stakeholder reviews, seeking consensus; and, assure explicit alignment and full consistency with the RAMCAP Framework and the Screening Tools/SSGs for other sectors. The Scope of Work included: designate the Subject Matter Expert (SME) Team; compare major risk analysis methodologies used in the Water Sector, e.g., RAM-W, VSAT and SENS, with RAMCAP Framework and other SSGs; develop a draft roster for the Voluntary Stakeholders Committee in consultation with EPA, DHS, Water Sector Coordinating Council; convene the Volunteer Stakeholders Committee, initial briefing and identify additional members; adapt/draft a preliminary Screening Tool and SSG building on earlier tools; review with Stakeholders Committee; define pilot assessment and identify participants; perform pilot assessment; review results with Stakeholders Committee, DHS and EPA; revise as needed; identify methods by which information can be disseminated to appropriate stakeholders within 12 months; alignment and consistency with the RAMCAP Framework and other sectors. Benefits and incentives of using RAMCAP are listed.
