Information Collection Requirement
Title: Air Cargo Security
Requirements.
Type of Request: Renewal of one
currently approved Information
Collection Request (ICR).
OMB Control Number: 1652–0040.
Form(s): Aviation Security Known
Shipper Verification Form, Aircraft
Operator or Air Carrier Reporting
Template, Security Threat Assessment
Application, Aviation Security Known
Shipper Verification Form.
Affected Public: The collections of
information that make up this ICR
involve regulated entities including
airports, passenger aircraft operators,
foreign air carriers, indirect air carriers
operating under a security program, and
all-cargo carriers.
Abstract: TSA is seeking renewal of
an expiring collection of information.
Congress set forth in the Aviation and
Transportation Security Act (ATSA),
Public Law 107–71, two specific
requirements for TSA in the area of air
cargo security: (1) To provide for
screening of all property, including U.S.
mail, cargo, carry-on and checked
baggage, and other articles, that will be
carried aboard a passenger aircraft; and
(2) to establish a system to screen,
inspect, report, or otherwise ensure the
security of all cargo that is to be
transported in all-cargo aircraft as soon
as practicable. TSA must proceed with
the ICR for this program in order to meet
the Congressional mandates and current
regulations (49 CFR 1542.209, 1544.205,
1546.205, and part 1548) that enable
them to accept, screen, and transport air
cargo. The uninterrupted collection of
this information will allow TSA to
continue to ensure implementation of
these vital security measures for the
protection of the traveling public.
This information collection requires
the ‘‘regulated entities,’’ who may
include passenger and all-cargo aircraft
operators, foreign air carriers, and
indirect air carriers (IACs), to
implement a standard security program
or to submit modifications to TSA for
approval, and update such programs as
necessary. The regulated entities must
also collect personal information and
submit such information to TSA so that
TSA may conduct security threat
assessments (STA) for individuals with
unescorted access to cargo, and any
individual who has responsibility for
screening cargo under 49 CFR parts
1544, 1546, or 1548. Aircraft operators
and foreign air carriers must report the
volume of accepted and screened cargo
transported on passenger aircraft.

Jkt 223001
Further, TSA will collect identifying
information for both companies and
individuals whom aircraft operators,
foreign air carriers, and IACs have
qualified to ship cargo on passenger
aircraft. This information is primarily
collected electronically via the Known
Shipper Management System (KSMS).
Whenever the information cannot be
entered into KSMS, the regulated entity
must conduct a physical visit of the
shipper using the Aviation Security
Known Shipper Verification Form and
subsequently enter that information into
KSMS. These regulated entities must
also maintain records pertaining to
security programs, training, and
compliance.
Number of Respondents: 4,890.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 73,567 hours.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on January
18, 2011.

(1) Pre-Award
a. HUD estimates that each applicant
spends approximately 7 person-hours to
complete the preliminary application
phase. Almost all of this time is
invested by a researcher, expert, analyst.
HUD estimates the mean hourly rate at
$30. For 15 applications, the
computation is as follows: 15
applications × 7 hours × $30 per hours
= $3,150.
HUD estimates that each applicant
spends approximately 41.25 personhours to complete an application.
Almost all of this time is invested by a
researcher, expert, analyst. HUD
estimates the mean hourly rate at $30.
For 10 applications, the computation is
as follows: 10 applications × 41.25
hours × $30 per hours = $12,375.
(2) Post-Award
Number of

Description of information collection
Responses
per year
HUD estimates that each grantee will
spend approximately 6 hours a year
maintaining records. HUD also
estimates that each grantee will spend
approximately 4 hours a year preparing
monitoring reports. Clerical staff and
faculty/supervisory staff will share this
burden. HUD estimates the applicable
hourly rate at $15. The computation is
as follow: 2 grantees × 10 hours × $15
an hour = $300.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: HUD has
the authority to address deficiencies in
the performance of lenders’ loans as
provided in HUD’s mortgagee approval
regulations at 24 CFR 202.3. On May 17,
1999 HUD published a notice (64 FR
26769), on its procedures for
terminating Origination Approval
Agreements with FHA lenders and
placement of FHA lenders on Credit
Watch status (an evaluation period). In
the May 17, 1999 notice, HUD advised
that it would publish in the Federal
Register a list of mortgagees, which
have had their Approval Agreements
terminated. On January 21, 2010 HUD
issued Mortgagee Letter 2010–03 which
advised the extended procedures for
terminating Underwriting Authority of
Direct Endorsement mortgagees.
Termination of Direct Endorsement
Approval: Approval of a DE mortgagee
by HUD/FHA authorizes the mortgagee
to underwrite single family mortgage

loans and submit them to FHA for
insurance endorsement. The Approval
may be terminated on the basis of poor
performance of FHA-insured mortgage
loans underwritten by the mortgagee.
The termination of a mortgagee’s DE
Approval is separate and apart from any
action taken by HUD’s Mortgagee
Review Board under HUD’s regulations
at 24 CFR part 25.
Cause: HUD’s regulations permit HUD
to terminate the DE Approval with any
mortgagee having a default and claim
rate for loans endorsed within the
preceding 24 months that exceeds 250
percent of the default and claim rate
within the geographic area served by a
HUD field office, and also exceeds the
national default and claim rate. For the
quarterly review period ending
September 30, 2010, HUD is terminating
the DE Approval of mortgagees whose
default and claim rate exceeds both the
national rate and 250 percent of the
field office rate.
Effect: Termination of the DE
Approval precludes the mortgagee from
underwriting FHA-insured single-family
mortgages within the area of the HUD
field office(s) listed in this notice.
Mortgagees authorized to purchase,
hold, or service FHA-insured mortgages
may continue to do so.
Loans that closed or were approved
before the Termination became effective
may be submitted for insurance
