Section 102 of the Maritime
Transportation Security Act (MTSA) of
2002 (Pub. L. 107–295) added section
70112 to title 46 of the U.S. Code, and
authorized the Secretary of the
Department in which the Coast Guard is
operating to establish Area Maritime
Security Advisory Committees for any
port area of the United States. (See 33
U.S.C. 1226; 46 U.S.C. 70112(a)(2); 33
CFR 1.05–1, 6.01; Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No.
0170.1). The MTSA includes a provision
exempting these AMS Committees from
the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), Public Law 92–436, 86 Stat.
470 (5 U.S.C. App. 2).
The VA AMS Committee will assist
the Captain of the Port in the
development, review, and update of the
AMS Plan for their area of
responsibility. Such matters may
include, but are not limited to:
Identifying critical port infrastructure
and operations; identifying risks
(threats, vulnerabilities, and
consequences); determining mitigation
strategies and implementation methods;
developing and describing the process

Frm 00047

to continually evaluate overall port
security by considering consequences
and vulnerabilities, how they may
change over time, and what additional
mitigation strategies can be applied; and
providing advice to, and assisting the
Captain of the Port in developing the
Area Maritime Security Plan.
AMS Committee Membership
At least seven members of the VA
AMS Committee need to have at least 5
years experience related to maritime or
port security operations. The Virginia
AMS Committee is made up of an
Executive Committee which currently
has 17 members selected by the Federal
Maritime Security Coordinator and also
four chartered subcommittees with
various members. The four
subcommittees are Law Enforcement,
Assessment, Response Organization and
Port Readiness.
The Law Enforcement Subcommittee
deals with law enforcement,
jurisdictional training and operational
issues. The Assessment Subcommittee
assists the FMSC by conducting
assessments or overseeing assessments
contracted by the Federal government.
The Response Organization
Subcommittee evaluates local, State and
Federal response plans for areas of
overlap, jurisdictional issues and/or
inconsistencies. The Port Readiness
Subcommittee deals with issues relative
to military out load activities in the
port. Other subcommittees and working
groups are established on an as needed
basis. Future subcommittees may
include a Recreational Boating Safety/
Security Subcommittee.
This advisory solicits members from
the maritime community that would
like to serve on one of the four
designated subcommittees. We are
seeking to add additional members to
the subcommittees with this
solicitation. Applicants may be required
to pass a background check prior to
appointment to a committee. Members’
terms of office will be for 5 years;
however, a member may be eligible to
serve an additional term of office.
Members will not receive any salary or
other compensation for their service on
an AMS Committee. In support of the
policy of the U.S. Coast Guard on
gender and ethnic diversity, we
encourage qualified women and
members of minority groups to apply.
Request for Applications
Those seeking membership are not
required to submit formal applications
to the local COTP. However, because we
do have an obligation to ensure that a
specific number of members have the
prerequisite maritime security

experience, we encourage the

experience in the maritime and security
industries.

Abstract: This information collection
established a voluntary program for
airport passengers to provide feedback
to TSA regarding their experiences with
TSA security procedures. The collection
allows TSA to determine and respond to
customer concerns about security
procedures and policies. TSA intends to
continue to make available to airports a
Customer Comment Card, which will
collect feedback and, if the passenger
desires, contact information so that TSA
staff can respond to the passenger’s
comment. For passengers who deposit
their cards in the designated dropboxes, TSA airport staff will collect the
cards, categorize comments, enter the
results into an online system for
reporting, and respond to passengers as
necessary. Passengers also have the
option to mail the cards directly to TSA.
TSA also will continue to provide the
TSA Contact Center for passengers to
make comments independently of
airport involvement. The TSA is
requesting an extension so that it can
continue to immediately collect and
respond in a timely manner to
comprehensive feedback, which serves
as critical input when the TSA must
modify its screening procedures.
Number of Respondents: 1,783,800.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 150,880 hours.
TSA is soliciting comments to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on May 12,
