7
Director shall identify all critical infrastructure and other

assets under subsection (b), including the specific risks

5

8

alternative sourcing, that limit or eliminate the risk
9

posed to the safety and security of the State or nation in
10

the event of a Pacific conflict.
11

(d) The report described in subsection (c) shall include a
12
risk-based list of critical infrastructure and other assets

identified under subsection (b), the order of which shall be
14
determined by:
15

(1) the degree to which each critical infrastructure
16

system is in need of protective action; and
17

18

critical infrastructure system would have on the safety
19

and security of the State and the nation.
20

(e) The report shall include a risk-based list of
21
components identified under subsection (c), but only for the

(2) the degree to which the disruption or restriction
26

of sourcing would cause a debilitating effect on the

SB3993

1

safety and security of the State and the nation; and
2

10
responsibilities under this section. The Director shall
11
develop a process for relevant stakeholders to submit
12
information to assist in identifying critical infrastructure
13
and other assets described under subsection (b).
14

(g) The Director may also, at his or her discretion,
15
coordinate with State universities of higher education,
16

critical infrastructure identified under subsection (b) of
25
this Section that they have been so identified, and ensure

owners and operators are provided the basis for the

SB3993
- 15 -
LRB104 20141 WRO 33592 b
1
determination. The Director shall also establish a process
2
