Download as PDF 74788 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 229 / Monday, November 30, 2015 / Notices annual burden is 40 hours. TSA estimates the annual hour burden associated with the initial application of entities requesting to be approved as CCSFs is 2,400 (60 new applicants × 40 hours). In addition, TSA currently has 950 CCSFs that must recertify every 3 years. According to the CCSP Section of the TSA Office of Security Operations (OSO), about half of these, or 475, will renew their certification or will relocate annually. TSA estimates that a renewal of the CCSF or relocation update to the CCSF will take 3 hours per entity. A site visit to approve the renewal of the CCSF will take an additional 2 hours for each entity. TSA estimates that a site visit takes place for approximately 20 percent of renewals, or 95 entities (475 × .20). Thus, TSA estimates that the annual hour burden associated with the renewal applications of existing CCSFs is 1,615 (475 renewals × 3 hours + 95 site visits × 2 hours). 4. Recordkeeping Requirements. TSA estimates a time burden of approximately five minutes (0.083 hours) annually per employee who is required to have an STA for each CCSF to prepare and file the training records and other records of compliance. TSA estimates it will receive a total of 26,400 STA applications in 3 years, for an average of 8,800 STA applications annually. TSA estimates an annual hour burden of approximately 730.4 hours (8,800 STA applicants × 0.083 hours). Dated: November 23, 2015.
