President Obama Signs Wyoming Disaster Declaration
1) Release Date: July, 14, 2010
2) Federal Aid Programs
The President today declared a major disaster exists in the State of Wyoming and ordered Federal aid to supplement State and local recovery efforts in the area struck by flooding during the period of June 4-18, 2010.
Federal funding is available to State and eligible local governments and certain private nonprofit organizations on a cost-sharing basis for emergency work and the repair or replacement of facilities damaged by the flooding in Fremont County and the portions of the Wind River Indian Reservation that lie within Fremont County.
Federal funding is also available on a cost-sharing basis for hazard mitigation measures statewide.
Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources (CIKR)
Release Date: 2009
“…our critical infrastructure and key resources (CIKR) may be directly exposed to the event themselves or indirectly exposed as a result of the dependencies and interdependencies among CIKR. Within the CIKR protection mission area, national priorities must include preventing catastrophic loss of life and managing cascading, disruptive impact on the U.S. and global economies across multiple threat scenarios. Achieving this goal requires a strategy that appropriately balances resiliency - a traditional American strength in adverse times – with focused, risk-informed prevention, protection, and preparedness activities so that we can manage and reduce the most serious risks that we face.
These concepts represent the pillars of our National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) and its 18 sup-porting Sector-Specific Plans (SSPs). The plans are carried out in practice by an integrated network of Federal departments and agencies, State and local government agencies, private sector entities, and a growing number of regional consortia—all operating together within a largely voluntary CIKR protection framework. This multidimensional public-private sector partnership is the key to success in this inherently complex mission area. Building this partnership under the NIPP has been a major accomplishment to date and has facilitated closer cooperation and a trusted relationship in and across the 18 CIKR sectors. Integrating multi-jurisdictional and multi-sector authorities, capabilities, and resources in a unified but flexible approach that can also be tailored to specific sector and regional risk landscapes and operating environments is the path to successfully enhancing our Nation’s CIKR protection.

Rewriting Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) Standards
Release Date: May 20, 2010
Rewriting Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) Standards
For almost a year several representatives from North American Electric Utilities have been rewriting the CIP standards CIP-002 to CIP-009. The draft products of this review and rewrite effort are CIP-010, Bulk Electric System (BES) Cyber System Categorization, and CIP-011, BES Cyber System Protection.
CIP-010 is a complete re-examination of how Critical Cyber Assets are defined and identified in CIP-002, Critical Cyber Asset Identification. CIP-010 completely changes the approach to defining a utility’s critical assets and the process for identifying critical cyber assets. Instead, CIP-010 retires the terms “Critical Assets,” “Critical Cyber Assets,” and “Cyber Assets” and instead includes the following new terms Bulk Electric System (BES) Cyber System Component and BES Cyber System.
CIP-011 appears to be a means of compiling CIP-003 to CIP-009 into a single document rather than having seven separate, stand-alone standards. Interestingly enough, CIP-011 also retires the terms “Physical Security Perimeter,” and “Electronic Security Perimeter” that were fundamental to CIP-005, Electronic Security Perimeter(s) and CIP-006, Physical Security of Critical Cyber Assets.

New Violation Severity Levels for CIP Standards Become Effective Immediately
03.26.2010
On March 18, 2010, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or the Commission) approved, with modifications, certain Violation Severity Level (VSL) assignments for Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) reliability standards as proposed by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC).[1] The Commission also provided additional guidance for determining appropriate VSLs in the context of requirements in the cyber security reliability standards.

FCC Narrowbanding Mandate
Understanding FCC Narrowbanding Requirements
Private land mobile radio (LMR) systems blocks of radio spectrum called channels. Which use 25 kHz-wide channels. By December 31, 2012, all private LMR users operating below 512 MHz must convert and migrate to 12.5 kHz narrowband voice
channels and highly efficient data channel operations. Using narrowband channels will ensure that agencies take advantage of more efficient technology and, by reducing channel width, will allow additional channels to exist within the same spectrum space, as illustrated in figure 1. Deadlines
To phase in the migration deadline of January 1, 2013, the FCC has established interim deadlines. The first important deadline is January 1, 2011, after which:
- The FCC will not grant applications for new voice operations or applications to expand the authorized contour of existing stations that use 25 kHz channels. Only narrowband authorizations will be granted.
- The FCC will prohibit manufacture or importation of new equipment that operates on 25 kHz channels. This will reduce the availability of new equipment for legacy radio systems and will affect how agencies maintain and upgrade older systems.
