What is the Top-Screen?
The Top-Screen is an easy-to-use online questionnaire that facility owners and operators complete to provide DHS with a basic understanding of the facility’s potential level of consequence. After answering a series of simple questions, DHS will be able to preliminarily determine whether the facility presents a high level of security risk. Not all facilities that complete the Top-Screen will be subject to further regulation by DHS. The Top-Screen is part of the Chemical Security Assessment Tool (CSAT). To register to use the CSAT Top-Screen, facilities should visit www.dhs.gov/chemicalsecurity.
