Abstract
Oklahoma, known for its oil, is home to the Cushing Pipeline Junction (CPJ), one of the nation’s most critical infrastructure assets. In wake of the modern terrorism threat that has specifically identified the petroleum industry as a target, CPJ stakeholders have implemented the most basic of tools – cooperation – to counter this threat; in doing so, they have sharpened this tool to a degree that their cooperation has become a model for the nation.
