Surface Transportation Security is a series in which relevant information is assembled into single, concise volumes—each pertaining to a specific security problem and closely related issues. The volumes focus on the concerns that transportation agencies are addressing when developing programs in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the anthrax attacks that followed. This Volume 7 `System security awareness for transportation employees' provides transportation department employees, supervisors, and managers with practical knowledge and skills that will help them effectively carry out their responsibilities concerning operational and infrastructure security. The practices put forth in the program help "harden the target" for state, county, local, and tribal transportation systems and assets relative to terrorism and enhance overall crime prevention efforts.
