That section authorizes TSA to ‘‘[e]stablish requirements to implement trusted passenger programs and use available technologies to expedite security screening of passengers who participate in such programs, thereby allowing security screening personnel to focus on those passengers who should be subject to more extensive screening.’’ In addition, the DHS Appropriations Act, 2006, Public Law 109–90 (119 Stat. 2064, 2088–89, Oct. 18, 2005), authorizes TSA to establish and collect a fee for any registered traveler program by publication of a notice in the Federal Register.

Information Collection Requirement

Purpose and Description of Data Collection

    The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is implementing 
the TSA Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program pursuant to 
its authority under section 109(a)(3) of the Aviation and 
Transportation Security Act (ATSA), Public Law 107-71 (115 Stat. 597, 
613, Nov. 19, 2001, codified at 49 U.S.C. 114 note). That section 
authorizes TSA to ``[e]stablish requirements to implement trusted 
passenger programs and use available technologies to expedite security 
screening of passengers who participate in such programs, thereby 
allowing security screening personnel to focus on those passengers who 
should be subject to more extensive screening.'' In addition, the DHS 
Appropriations Act, 2006, Public Law 109-90 (119 Stat. 2064, 2088-89, 
Oct. 18, 2005), authorizes TSA to establish and collect a fee for any 
registered traveler program by publication of a notice in the Federal 
Register.
    Under the TSA Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program, 
individuals may submit information to TSA, which in turn will use the 
information to conduct a security threat assessment of the individual 
using existing systems and processes. For those individuals who meet 
the standards of that assessment, TSA will issue a unique number, 
called a Known Traveler Number,\1\ which individuals may submit to 
airlines when making flight reservations. Airline passengers who submit 
Known Traveler Numbers when making airline reservations are eligible 
for expedited screening on flights originating from U.S. airports with 
TSA Pre[check]TM lanes.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The Known Traveler Number is a component of Secure Flight 
Passenger Data (SFPD), both of which are defined in the Secure 
Flight regulations at 49 CFR 1560.3. See also the Secure Flight 
regulations at 49 CFR part 1560.
    \2\ Passengers who are eligible for expedited screening through 
a dedicated TSA Pre[check]TM lane typically will receive 
more limited physical screening, e.g., will be able to leave on 
their shoes, light outerwear, and belt, to keep their laptop in its 
case, and to keep their 3-1-1 compliant liquids/gels bag in a carry-
on. TSA Pre[check]TM lanes are available at 40 airports 
nationwide, with additional expansion planned. See ``TSA

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TSA seeks to establish enrollment sites and implement a mobile 
enrollment capability. Those seeking to become a TSA 
Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program member will have the 
option to apply online by submitting biographic information and paying 
the fee using a secure web portal (or by money order at an enrollment 
center) to TSA's contracted vendor. Applicants then will submit 
biometric data (e.g., fingerprints) in-person at an enrollment center.
    Eligibility for the TSA Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler

involving criminal records, and before making a final eligibility 
decision, TSA will advise the applicant that the FBI criminal record 
discloses information that would disqualify him or her from the TSA 
Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program.
    Within 30 days after being advised that the criminal record 
received from the FBI discloses a disqualifying criminal offense, the 
applicant must notify TSA in writing of his or her intent to correct 
any information he or she believes to be inaccurate. The applicant must 
provide a certified revised record, or the appropriate court must 
forward a certified true copy of the information, prior to TSA 
approving eligibility of the applicant for the TSA

immigration records indicate that the applicant is ineligible for the 
TSA Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program, the applicant 
must notify TSA in writing of his or her intent to correct any 
information believed to be inaccurate. TSA will review any information 
submitted and make a final decision. If neither notification nor a 
corrected record is received by TSA, TSA may make a final determination 
to deny eligibility. Individuals who TSA determines are ineligible for 
the TSA Pre[check]TM Trusted Traveler Program will continue
