CASS carrier means an airline that participates in CASS, pretty simple. I know for a fact that in 2008 there was a list of carriers that considered participation in CASS as a reciprocal agreement. It was about 1/4 to 1/3 of the total list, mostly smaller pax airlines and freight dogs. It is possible that has changed, but I have no way of confirming either way, as I am no longer employed directly by an air carrier.
