That sounds like monitoring. Especially if you need an access card to enter the gate.canvasbck wrote:Another question, under the petrochemical exemption a parking area has to meet a three pronged test to be considered secure. It must 1) physically contain the plant, 2) be closed to the public, and 3) the ingress must be continuously monitored by security personnel.
Under 3, there is not a definition of "monitored" or of "security personnel". Would a camera that broadcasts to a board operator meet this standard? In other words, could a chemical storage facility that does not have security guards mount a camera on their entrance and have the image from that camera displayed for the board operator and then be considered a secure area?
However, I think many of the plants (with air permits, etc.) already have full-time on-site security, if my last visit to facilities in the Houston Ship Channel area are any indication.
