...they left behind is scarred by the detritus of war and industry. To the southwest lies the Dugway Proving Ground, where the U.S. government develops chemical and biological weapons.

"Expecting a trade association to tell a business it needs to spend more money on security isn't sufficient," says Sal DePasquale, a Georgia chemical-security expert, who helped draft the industry's current voluntary plan. Congress is looking at making chemical-plant security mandatory, and DHS officials say they're ready to order beefed-up security for chemical facilities as well.
