Chinese origin, and many significant
processing operations occur in China,
the Chinese operations require less skill
and precision, and the product remains
inoperable when imported into the
United States. In contrast, the final
assembly of the product, 15 out of 25
operational sequences of which are
performed in the United States, requires
a good deal more skill, precision and
technical expertise. Many of the critical
operations involved in completing the
product, such as installing the work
platforms’ software, manufacturing the
‘‘brain’’ of the system and attaching the
modules to the product, are also
performed in the United States. More
importantly, 40 percent of the remaining
components of the electric scissor lifts
are of U.S.-origin. This includes the
three control modules, which act as the
‘‘brain’’ of the machine, without which
the machine cannot function; batteries;
the platform control box; and, the
ground control panel. We also recognize
that the software contained in the three
modules is completely developed and
programmed in the United States. In
addition, significant operations to
produce the product are performed in
the United States, such as sophisticated
testing, inspection, calibration and
preparation of the product.
Consequently, we find that the imported
partially assembled R Series lifts are
substantially transformed as a result of
the assembly operations performed in
the United States to produce the fully
functional and operational electric
scissor lifts. Based on the information
presented, it is our opinion that the
country of origin of the RS Scissor Lift
is the United States.

HOLDING:
Based on the facts provided, the
finished electric scissor lifts will be
considered a product of the United
States for purposes of U.S. Government
procurement.
Notice of this final determination will
be given in the Federal Register, as
required by 19 C.F.R. § 177.29. Any
party-at-interest other than the party
which requested this final
determination may request, pursuant to
19 C.F.R. § 177.31, that CBP reexamine
the matter anew and issue a new final
determination. Pursuant to 19 C.F.R.
§ 177.30, any party-at-interest may,
within 30 days of publication of the
Federal Register Notice referenced
above, seek judicial review of this final
determination before the Court of
International Trade.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: TSA
published a Federal Register notice,
with a 60-day comment period soliciting
comments, of the following collection of
information on January 26, 2018, 83 FR
4502.
Comments Invited
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 not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation will be
available at https://www.reginfo.gov
upon its submission to OMB. Therefore,
in preparation for OMB review and
approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments
to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Consistent with the requirements of
Executive Order (E.O.) 13771, Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs, and E.O. 13777, Enforcing the
Regulatory Reform Agenda, TSA is also
requesting comments on the extent to
which this request for information could
be modified to reduce the burden on
respondents.
Information Collection Requirement
Title: TSA End of Course Level 1

personnel, as well as to State and local
civilian personnel. State and local
civilian personnel (primarily, law
enforcement agencies that are
responsible for the security at airports
throughout the United States)
participate under agency-specific
cooperative agreements with TSA’s
National Explosives Detection Canine
Team Program. This information
collection captures ratings and written
comments and feedback from students
about the quality of the referenced
training.
TSA is revising the information
collection to standardize all Level 1
course evaluations across TSA. A Level
1 evaluation is a measure of the degree
to which participants react to a learning
activity. In addition, TSA is removing
from the form all personally identifiable
information (PII) as well as course code
and location, as these elements are not
necessary to the collection. Finally, TSA
is revising the name of the collection
from ‘‘TSA OTWE Canine Training and
Evaluation Branch End of Course Level
1 Evaluation’’ to ‘‘TSA End of Course
Level 1 Evaluation—Instructor-Led
Classroom Training.’’
Number of Respondents: 79.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 39.5 hours annually.
Dated: May 23, 2018.

partnered with local law enforcement agencies
(Legacy) under a reimbursement agreement to train
students and canines and pair the canine teams
through annual evaluations. To ensure
standardization of all TSA student training, the
civilian students attend the same courses as TSA
students. This may include pairing civilian students
with an explosives-only canine in the CTC
Explosives Detection Canine Handler Course;
pairing civilian students with trained canines in the
Passenger Screening Canine Handler Course; or
enrolling students previously certified by the TSA
to attend the Bridge Course to enhance their
skillset. Doing so ensures all students with the
TSA’s National Explosives Detection Canine Team
Program receive the same course materials to
successfully operate in the operational
environments associated with TSA (airports, mass
transit, and water vessels with the transportation
triad). Lastly, CTC will be developing a course
specifically for Legacy civilian supervisors and
trainers that incorporates much of the content and
materials in the Canine Technical Operations
Course and Canine Management Course.

Information Collection Requirement
LEOSA
Under 18 U.S.C. 926C, which codifies
a portion of LEOSA,1 a ‘‘qualified
retired law enforcement officer’’ may
carry a concealed firearm in any
jurisdiction in the United States,
regardless of State or local laws, with
certain limitations and conditions. In
accordance with LEOSA, the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) issued DHS Directive and
Instruction Manual 257–01, Law
Enforcement Officers Safety Act (Nov. 5,
2009). DHS Directive 257–01 requires
DHS components to implement the
provisions of LEOSA pertaining to
qualified retired LEOs as cost-effectively
and efficiently as possible consistent
with the requirements and intent of the
statute for LEOs formerly employed by
DHS and predecessor agencies.
TSA subsequently issued TSA
Management Directive (MD) 3500.1,
LEOSA Applicability and Eligibility
(Oct. 7, 2001), to implement the LEOSA
statute and DHS directive. Under this
MD, TSA issues photographic
identification to retired LEOs who
separated or retired from TSA in ‘‘good
standing’’ and meet other qualification
requirements identified in this MD.
Retired Badge/Credential
Under TSA MD 2800.11, Badge and
Credential Program, an employee
retiring from Federal service is eligible
to receive a ‘‘retired badge and/or
credential’’ if the individual: (1) Was
issued a badge and/or credential, (2)
qualifies for a Federal annuity under the
Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS)
or the Federal Employees Retirement
System (FERS), and (3) meets all of the
1 Public Law 108–277, 118 Stat. 865, July 22,
2004, codified in 18 U.S.C. 926B and 926C, as
amended by the Law Enforcement Officers Safety
Act Improvements Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–272,
124 Stat. 2855; Oct. 12, 2010) and National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (Pub. L.
