information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;

Information Collection Requirement
Title: Imposition and Collection of
Passenger Civil Aviation Security
Service Fees.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0001.
Forms(s): TSA Form 2502.
Affected Public: Air carriers and
foreign air carriers.
Abstract: TSA regulations, 49 CFR
part 1510, require air carriers and
foreign air carriers to collect the
‘‘September 11th Security Service Fee’’
from passengers and to remit the fee to
TSA on a monthly basis. Air carriers
and foreign air carriers are further
required to submit quarterly reports to
TSA that provide an accounting of the
fees imposed, collected, refunded to
passengers, and remitted to TSA and to
retain this data for three years. TSA has
temporarily suspended an additional
requirement for air carriers with over
50,000 passengers to submit annual
audits of its fee collections and
remittance; this requirement may be
reinstated in the future. In December
2013, the fee was statutorily
restructured to be based on one-way

trips rather than enplanements (the
statute was further amended to state that
the fee shall be $5.60 per one-way trip
or $11.20 per round trip.) TSA
published an interim final rule (IFR) to
implement changes to the regulations
required by these amendments to 49
U.S.C. 44940. This information
collection request covers both the
quarterly reports and the estimated
impact should annual audits be
reinstated in the future.

Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652–0064;
Screening Partnership Program (SPP).
TSA’s SPP (codified as amended at 49
U.S.C. 44920) 1 enables commercial
airports to apply for a qualified private
screening company, under contract with
TSA, to provide passenger and baggage
security screening services, rather than
Federal employees. An authorized
representative of the airport or airport
owner submits a copy of the SPP
application to the airport’s TSA Federal
Security Director (FSD) to begin the
application process.
Purpose and Description of Data
Collection
The application process is the initial
notification to TSA of an airport’s desire
to opt-out of the security screening
provided by TSA Federal employees.
1 The Aviation and Transportation Security Act
(ATSA), Public Law 107–71, sec. 108 (115 Stat. 597,
611, Nov. 19, 2001).
PO 00000
Frm 00063
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 9990
The SPP application collects the
following from each airport seeking to
participate in SPP:
• Basic airport information: Airport
name, FAA identifier, and airport
operating authority.
• Authorized Requestor information:
Name, position, primary and alternate
phone number, mailing address and
email address.
• An indication of whether or not the
airport authority desires to provide its
own private security screening services.
• A recommendation on which
private screening company should
perform the screening function and the
basis for the recommendation.
• Information on any major activities
scheduled to occur at the airport within
the next 18 months that could impact
the transition from Federal screening to
private screening (for example, major
construction).
• Optional information may be
provided to support the consideration of
their application.
Use of the Information
TSA will acknowledge receipt of the
application, review for completeness,
and provide an official response within
120 days from the date of
acknowledgement. The application
contains no personally identifiable
information, sensitive security
information, or classified information,
so no special handling or protection is
required.
TSA currently has a screening
presence at approximately 450 airports,
of which 22 airports are participating in
SPP, an increase from the 18 airports
that participated in 2014. The annual
burden for the information collection
related to SPP is estimated to be 30
minutes (0.5 hours). While TSA
estimates that only two airports will
respond annually, it is presumed that
ten or more airports could respond. The
agency estimates that each respondent
airport will spend approximately onequarter (.25) hour to complete the
application for a total burden of one-half
hour (0.50 hours). TSA does not require
the airports to maintain records of the
application submission. However, if the
airport chooses to do so, the burden
associated with this action is
anticipated to be minimal.
