Information Collection Requirement ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Title: Security Training for Surface Transportation Employees. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. OMB Control Number: 1652–0066. Forms(s): NA. Affected Public: Higher-risk public transportation agencies and passenger railroads, freight railroads, and Overthe-Road Buses. Abstract: TSA was established by the Aviation and Transportation Security Act (ATSA) as the primary federal authority to enhance security for all modes of transportation.1 The scope of TSA’s authority includes assessing security risks, developing security measures to address identified risks, and enforcing compliance with these measures.2 TSA also has broad regulatory authority to issue, rescind, revise, and enforce, regulations as necessary to carry out its transportation security functions.3 As part of the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007 (9/11 Act),4 Congress mandated regulations to enhance surface transportation security through security training of frontline employees. The mandate includes prescriptive requirements for who must be trained, what the training must encompass, and how to submit and obtain approval for a training program.5 The 9/11 Act also mandates regulations requiring higher-risk railroads and overthe-road buses to appoint security coordinators.6 1 Public Law 107–71 (115 Stat. 597; Nov. 19, 2001). ATSA created TSA as a component of the Department of Transportation. Section 403(2) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002 (HSA), Public Law 107–296 (116 Stat. 2135; Nov. 25, 2002), transferred all functions related to transportation security, including those of the Secretary of Transportation and the Under Secretary of Transportation for Security, to the Secretary of Homeland Security. Pursuant to DHS Delegation Number 7060.2, the Secretary delegated to the Administrator, subject to the Secretary’s guidance and control, the authority vested in the Secretary with respect to TSA, including the authority in sec. 403(2) of the HSA. 2 See 49 U.S.C. 114, which codified section 101 of ATSA. 3 49 U.S.C. 114(l)(1). 4 Public Law 110–53 (121 Stat. 266; Aug. 3, 2007). 5 See secs. 1408, 1517, and 1534 of the 9/11 Act, codified at 6 U.S.C. 1137, 1167, and 1184, respectively. 6 See secs. 1512 and 1531 of the 9/11 Act, codified at 6 U.S.C. 1162 and 1181, respectively. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:08 Apr 17, 2023 Jkt 259001 In accordance with these authorities and mandates, TSA published the Security Training for Surface Transportation Employees Final Rule (Rule). See 85 FR 16456 (March 23, 2020). This Rule requires owner/ operators of higher-risk freight railroad carriers, public transportation agencies (including rail mass transit and bus systems), passenger railroad carriers, and over-the-road bus companies to provide TSA-approved security training to employees who perform securitysensitive functions. In addition, TSA expanded its requirements for security coordinators and the reporting of significant security concerns, including bus operations, within the scope of the regulation. See 49 CFR parts 1570, 1580, 1582, and 1584. The information collection mandated by the Rule includes requiring a security training program, maintaining security training records, designating security coordinator and reporting significant security concerns information. Number of Respondents: 218. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An estimated 4,623 hours annually. Dated: April 12, 2023 . Christina A. Walsh, TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Information Technology.
