Information Disclosure and Security Information Protection at Water Utilities
This article discusses information disclosure and security information protection at water utilities. It focuses on security‐oriented vulnerability assessments (VAs) that may be used by terrorists as a roadmap of key system components/processes if reported to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as required by the Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act of 2002. Because of this concern, the Bioterrorism Act exempted VAs from Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) release. Contradicting this, most water utilities were already subject to state “sunshine laws” that required disclosure of most information requested by any member of the public. Consequently, the article discusses how water utilities face a difficult and ongoing challenge of identifying and managing the release of potentially sensitive information.
