Business Continuity Planning is now part of US
federal law!
It was included in part of the "IMPLEMENTING RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE 9/11
COMMISSION ACT OF 2007".
An excerpt can be found at
www.k-r-m.com
Buried at the
end of the act is something called NFPA 1600.
NFPA stands for National Fire Protection Association. NFPA 1600 contains the
teeth in Title IX of the 9/11 act.
"NFPA 1600
Standard on Disaster/Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs 2007
Edition" is a comprehensive set of standards that companies would use to certify
themselves for the 9/11 act.

Even though Title IX is a voluntary program, the
standards contained in the 9/11 act and NFPA 1600 could easily be used in a
lawsuit related to an incident.
