The ICR documentation will be available at https://www.reginfo.gov upon its submission to OMB.

Information Collection Requirement OMB Control Number 1652–0013; Aviation Security Customer Satisfaction Performance Measurement Passenger Survey. TSA, with OMB’s approval, has conducted surveys of passengers at airports nationwide and now seeks approval to continue this effort. The surveys are administered using an PO 00000 Frm 00085 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 intercept methodology. The intercept methodology uses TSA personnel who are not in uniform to approach passengers immediately following their screening experience and offer, but not require, the opportunity to complete a survey. The surveyors will have IDs displayed, showing they are Government employees or contractors. TSA uses the intercept methodology to randomly select passengers to complete the survey (such as by approaching 1 out of every 10 passengers in a given screening area) in an effort to gain survey data representative of the most relevant passenger demographics to capture data from a wide range of passengers, 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; • 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 no more than 10 questions. All questions concern aspects of the passenger’s security screening experience and are designed to help TSA identify areas in need of improvement. Participation is always voluntary. Before each survey collection at an airport, TSA personnel determine whether to offer individuals a chance to participate using a printed card, an online portal accessed with a QR code link, or using a tablet or similar device. The method selected is usually based on the objective of a particular collection. For example, if internet access is limited, a paper based survey would be more appropriate than using tablets displaying an online survey. Passengers may be given an opportunity to respond in writing to the survey questions on the customer satisfaction card and depositing the card in a drop-box at the airport. In other situations, passengers may be provided an opportunity to follow a QR code link to an online survey or following a link listed on a printed card to an online survey). OMB previously approved a total of 82 questions from which the survey questions were selected. TSA is reducing the number of questions to 46 and revising the list of questions to align with OMB Circular No. A–11’s focus areas, such as trust and overall satisfaction, and allow for more meaningful data collection. The new set of questions also creates flexibility to E:\FR\FM\23AUN1.SGM 23AUN1 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 160 / Monday, August 23, 2021 / Notices adapt the questions to new and emerging technology. TSA collects this information to continue to assess customer satisfaction in an effort to manage TSA employee performance more efficiently. TSA is requesting approval of the revision of the information collection. TSA personnel have the capability to conduct this survey at approximately 25 airports each year. Based on prior survey data and research, TSA estimates 384 responses from the passengers at each airport. The average number of respondents is estimated to be 9,600 per year (384 passengers × 25 airports). TSA estimates that the time it takes to complete the survey either online or by writing on the form ranges from 3 to 7 minutes, with an average of 5 minutes (0.083 hours) per respondent. Therefore, the annual burden is 800 hours (9,600 responses × 0.083 hours). Dated: August 17, 2021. Christina A. Walsh, TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology.
