Annual Summary of Enforcement Actions Taken Under 49 U.S.C. 114(u)

Annual Report
    Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 114(u)(7)(A), TSA provides the following 
summary of enforcement actions taken by TSA in calendar year 2020 under 
section 114(u).\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ 49 U.S.C. 114(u)(7)(A) states: In general.--the Secretary of 
Homeland Security shall--(i) provide an annual summary to the public 
of all enforcement actions taken by the Secretary under this 
subsection; and (ii) include in each such summary the docket number 
of each enforcement action, the type of alleged violation, the 
penalty or penalties proposed, and the final assessment amount of

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background
    Section 114(u) of 49 U.S.C. gives the TSA authority to assess civil 
penalties for violations of any surface transportation requirements 
under 49 U.S.C. and for any violations of chapter 701 of 46 U.S.C., 
which governs TWICs. Specifically, section 114(u) authorizes the 
Secretary of Homeland Security to impose civil penalties of up to 
$10,000 per violation \3\ for violations of any surface transportation 
requirement under 49 U.S.C. or any requirement related to TWIC under 46 
U.S.C. chapter 701.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Pursuant to title VII, sec. 701 of Public Law 114-74 (129 
Stat. 583, 599; Nov. 2, 2015), the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation 
Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015--part of the Bipartisan 
Budget Act of 2015, this $10,000 civil penalty maximum is adjusted 
for inflation annually. See 49 CFR 1503.401(b).
    \4\ TSA exercises this function under delegated authority from 
the Secretary. See DHS Delegation No. 7060-2.
    \5\ On March 23, 2020, TSA promulgated a final rule which, among 
other things, reorganized Title 49 Chapter XII Subpart D, Maritime 
and Surface Transportation Security. For example, the regulation 49 
CFR 1570.7, pertaining to fraudulent use and manufacture of 
credentials, is now located at 49 CFR 1570.301. This report cites to 
the regulatory violations as alleged in TSA's enforcement actions at 
the time of issuance.
