Terrorist attacks on industrial sites can occur anywhere at any time. While many past attacks against industrial targets in the U.S. have been small, received little attention outside the local area, and were intended primarily to draw attention to a perceived or real injustice, others were severe and resulted in the deaths of dozens of individuals. This session will survey past attacks carried out against industrial targets and will address the intended and actual consequences of the attacks as well as the weapons used. The lesson learned from these attacks will also be shared.

Meyer Senior Director, Corporate Security Dynegy Corporation Texas and Louisiana business and industry face a triple threat from hurricanes, tornadoes and flooding. The Gulf regions have experienced wake-up calls emanating from three recent hurricanes, with more major hurricanes predicted in the future. Additionally, companies must address disasters that include fire, explosions and pandemic diseases. Businesses are obligated to prepare for any disaster. Publicly traded companies must be able to demonstrate to the Board of Directors and the stockholders that they have a plan to minimize the impact of disasters on the company’s ability to conduct business. Likewise, private companies have obligation to their employees, customers, lenders and the community that they have a plan to stay in business after a disaster. Businesses can not expect the government to protect them or provide assistance after a disaster. The fate of each company rests on its ability to plan and prepare. Companies that survive a major disaster will be the ones that have created a well thought out plan, trained their personnel according to the plan, and implemented the plan in a timely basis. This presentation will provide a summary of what companies should be doing NOW to prepare for survival later.
