Are all shippers and shipping centers at Harvard required to have a security plan?
The security plans apply only to those materials that present significant security threats. The rule permits a shipper or carrier to develop a security plan that assesses the specific security risks of the materials to be transported and put into place measures that are commensurate with the assessed risks. If a shipper or carrier determines that the security risks of the materials it handles are relatively small, then its security plan may well be limited in scope and complexity.
