Information Collection Requirement Title: Aviation Security Customer Satisfaction Performance Measurement Passenger Survey. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. OMB Control Number: 1652–0013. Forms(s): Survey. Affected Public: Travelling public. Abstract: TSA, with OMB’s approval, has conducted surveys of passengers and now seeks approval to continue this effort. TSA plans to conduct passenger surveys at airports nationwide. The surveys will be administered using either an intercept methodology 1 or a systematic sampling methodology.2 Before each survey collection at an airport, TSA personnel decide the method by which passengers will be asked to complete and return the survey. Under both methodologies, TSA personnel who are not in uniform hand deliver business card survey forms to passengers immediately following the passenger’s experience with TSA’s checkpoint security functions. Passengers are invited, though not required, to complete and return the survey using either a web-based portal on their own devices, responding to TSA personnel capturing verbal responses to the survey in real time using the same web-based portal on portable devices, or by responding in writing to the survey questions on the customer satisfaction card and depositing the card in a drop-box at the airport or using U.S. mail. TSA uses the intercept methodology or the systematic sampling methodology to randomly select passengers to complete the survey in an effort to gain survey data representative of all passenger demographics, including passengers who— • Travel on weekdays or weekends; • Travel in the morning, mid-day, or evening; • Pass through each of the different security screening locations in the airport; 1 The intercept methodology utilizes surveys that are conducted in-person, generally in a public place or business. 2 Systematic sampling methodology is a method of choosing a random sample from among a larger population. The process of systematic sampling typically involves first selecting a fixed starting point in the larger population and then obtaining subsequent observations by using a constant interval between samples taken.

Each survey includes 10 to 15 questions pulled from a list of 82 questions previously approved by OMB. Each question promotes a quality response so that TSA can identify areas in need of improvement. All questions concern aspects of the passenger’s security screening experience, such as: • Confidence in Personnel. • Confidence in Screening Equipment. • Confidence in Security Procedures. • Convenience of Divesting. • Experience at Checkpoint. • Satisfaction with Wait Time. • Separation from Belongings. • Separation from Others in Party. • Stress Level. TSA personnel use random procedures to select passengers to voluntarily participate in the survey until TSA obtains the desired sample size. The samples may be selected with one randomly selected time and location or span multiple times and locations. All responses are voluntary and there is no burden on passengers who choose not to respond. TSA intends to collect this information in order to continue to assess customer satisfaction in an effort to more efficiently manage its security screening performance at airports. TSA can use this detailed, airport-specific data to enhance customer experiences and its performance at specific airports. Number of Respondents: 9,600.

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is

Information Collection Requirement

    Title: Aviation Security Customer Satisfaction Performance 
Measurement Passenger Survey.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    OMB Control Number: 1652-0013.
    Forms(s): Survey.
    Affected Public: Travelling public.
    Abstract: TSA, with OMB's approval, has conducted surveys of 
passengers and now seeks approval to continue this effort. TSA plans to 
conduct passenger surveys at airports nationwide. The surveys will be 
administered using either an intercept methodology \1\ or a systematic 
sampling methodology.\2\ Before each survey collection at an airport, 
TSA personnel decide the method by which passengers will be asked to 
complete and return the survey. Under both methodologies, TSA personnel 
who are not in uniform hand deliver business card survey forms to 
passengers immediately following the passenger's experience with TSA's 
checkpoint security functions. Passengers are invited, though not 
required, to complete and return the survey using either a web-based 
portal on their own devices, responding to TSA personnel capturing 
verbal responses to the survey in real time using the same web-based 
portal on portable devices, or by responding in writing to the survey 
questions on the customer satisfaction card and depositing the card in 
a drop-box at the airport or using U.S. mail.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The intercept methodology utilizes surveys that are 
conducted in-person, generally in a public place or business.
    \2\ Systematic sampling methodology is a method of choosing a 
random sample from among a larger population. The process of 
systematic sampling typically involves first selecting a fixed 
starting point in the larger population and then obtaining 
subsequent observations by using a constant interval between samples 
taken.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    TSA uses the intercept methodology or the systematic sampling 
methodology to randomly select passengers to complete the survey in an 
effort to gain survey data representative of all passenger 
demographics, including passengers who--
     Travel on weekdays or weekends;
     Travel in the morning, mid-day, or evening;
     Pass through each of the different security screening 
locations in the airport;

[[Page 58529]]

     Are subject to more intensive screening of their baggage 
or person; and
     Experience different volume conditions and wait times as 
they proceed through the security checkpoints.
    Each survey includes 10 to 15 questions pulled from a list of 82 
questions previously approved by OMB. Each question promotes a quality 
response so that TSA can identify areas in need of improvement. All 
questions concern aspects of the passenger's security screening 
experience, such as:
     Confidence in Personnel.
     Confidence in Screening Equipment.
     Confidence in Security Procedures.
     Convenience of Divesting.
     Experience at Checkpoint.
     Satisfaction with Wait Time.
     Separation from Belongings.
     Separation from Others in Party.
     Stress Level.
    TSA personnel use random procedures to select passengers to 
voluntarily participate in the survey until TSA obtains the desired 
sample size. The samples may be selected with one randomly selected 
time and location or span multiple times and locations. All responses 
are voluntary and there is no burden on passengers who choose not to 
respond.
    TSA intends to collect this information in order to continue to 
assess customer satisfaction in an effort to more efficiently manage 
its security screening performance at airports. TSA can use this 
detailed, airport-specific data to enhance customer experiences and its 
performance at specific airports.
    Number of Respondents: 9,600.
    Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An estimated 800 hours annually.

    Dated: August 19, 2016.
