摘要

Senate Republicans say a Democratic proposal to force the chemical industry to reduce the hazards of its products as part of chemical plant security legislation should fall under the jurisdiction of the Environment & Public Works (EPW) Committee instead of the homeland security panel, an assertion aimed at throwing a procedural roadblock at the contentious proposal. The assertion reflects a strategy by industry and Republican opponents of so-called inherently safer technology (IST) rules to frame the IST proposals as an environmental issue that should not be debated as part of chemical plant security legislation. The argument over committee oversight could be cited in the coming weeks by opponents to help kill a planned Democratic amendment to chemical security legislation that would force the industry to implement IST rules, when the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee holds a long-awaited markup of chemical security legislation authored by its chairman, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME).
