Auditor Version 7.0 Includes New Security Assessment Module

October 10, 2007--Dakota released Auditor Version 7.0 with a new Security Assessment Module, new International Modules and more updated regulations. The interim final rule (72 FR 17688) of the Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards has been published. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in what is being emphasized as a "partnership" between chemical facilities and the DHS, is proposing a list of chemicals and quantities--called "Appendix A". If your facility possesses any of the chemicals in Appendix A, you will be subject to the above standards. The DHS intends to ensure plant compliance with its new security plan by initiating on-site inspections.

Dakota's new International Protocol collection, authored by ENHESA-EPC, now includes new versions of France, Mexico, Australia-Victoria, United Kingdom-England and Canada-Ontario.

Consider converting to "Software as a Service" (Saas). It is the most economical approach to ensuring your access to the most current information available.

Dakota introduces "Profiler" which provides the most pro-active approach for capturing, filtering and addressing regulations specific to your site. Call 216-896-0600 for more information.
