Agency Information Collection Activities: Request for Verification of Naturalization, Form N-25; Extension, Without Change, of a Currently Approved Collection, 85244-85245 [2016-28279]

Download as PDF 85244 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 227 / Friday, November 25, 2016 / Notices submit a proposal in response to a request for proposal by TSA. The prospective bidder may request certain SSI to perfect their bid. Applicants seeking access to SSI in Federal district court litigation and the bidder will be required to complete TSA Form 2211 in order to have a security threat assessment completed before they can receive the requested SSI. In order to determine if the individual may be granted access to SSI for this purpose, TSA will conduct a threat assessment that includes: (1) A fingerprint-based criminal history records check (CHRC), (2) a name-based check to determine whether the individual poses or is suspected of posing a threat to transportation or national security, including checks against terrorism, immigration, or other databases TSA maintains or uses; and (3) a professional responsibility check (for attorneys and court reporters). TSA will use the information collected to conduct the security threat assessment for the purpose of determining whether the provision of such access to the information for the proceeding presents a risk of harm to the Nation. The results of the security threat assessment will be used to make a final determination on whether the individual may be granted access to the SSI at issue in the case or to perfect a bid to be submitted to TSA. TSA estimates that the total annual hour burden for this collection will be 127 hours, based on an estimated 127 annual respondents and a one-hour burden per respondent. Dated: November 18, 2016. Joanna Johnson, TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology.
