Markey, Edward

The U.S. government is also focused on the risk posed by attacks on industrial chemical facilities [53]. According to Massachusetts s representative, Edward Markey, Chemical facilities are at the top of the terrorists target list [14]. However, because attacks on these facilities are more likely to result in a known release of a defined chemical entity, sensors are less important than situations where either the chemical release goes undetected or where an unknown substance is released.
