Critical Infrastructure Protection. States and local governments should generally consider critical infrastructure to include any system or asset that if attacked would result in catastrophic loss of life and/or catastrophic economic loss. In addition, protection for the following specific types of facilities should also be considered: • Protective security enhancements for large public gatherings/areas, such as New Year's Eve celebrations, sporting events and outdoor concerts • Public water systems serving large population centers • Primary data storage and processing facilities, major stock exchanges and major banking centers • Chemical facilities located in close proximity to large population centers • Major power generation facilities that exceed 2000MW and if successfully attacked would disrupt the regional electric grid • Hydroelectric facilities and dams that produce power in excess of 2000MW or could result in catastrophic loss of life if breached • Nuclear Power plants • Electric substations 500KV or larger, and substations 345KV or larger that are part of a critical system supporting populations in excess of one million people • Rail and highway bridges over major waterways that, if destroyed, would cause catastrophic economic loss • Major highway tunnels under waterways that if attacked would cause catastrophic loss of life or catastrophic economic impact • Major natural gas transmission pipelines in excess of 3000 bcf throughput • Natural gas and liquid natural gas (LNG) storage facilities • Major petroleum handling facilities such as pipelines, ports, refineries and terminals • Major mass transit subway systems and the supporting ventilation systems • Telecommunications, internet, and cyber facilities Border Security. Northern and southern border jurisdictions may use FY05 LETPP funding for operational overtime costs (including travel and per diem) associated with providing enhanced law enforcement operations in support of federal agencies for increased border security at Code Orange. UASI jurisdictions at the border may also use such funds at Code Yellow. State, tribal, and local law enforcement personnel may provide increased enforcement presence by generally increasing their patrol presence at the border; by providing additional traffic control support at the border and at border patrol traffic checkpoints; and by enhancing their participation in the Integrated Border Enforcement Teams. Reimbursement for state, tribal, and local law enforcement at northern and southern border jurisdictions is contingent upon approved operational plans developed jointly DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY i OFFICE FOR DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS 27
