New Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review: Application To Participate in the Screening Partnership Program (SPP)
This notice announces that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has forwarded the new Information Collection Request (ICR) abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. TSA published a Federal Register notice, with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments, of the following collection of information on July 2, 2014, 79 FR 37763. The collection involves the TSA's Screening Partnership Program (SPP) (49 U.S.C. 44920 (ATSA Sec. 108)), which enables commercial airports to apply for a qualified private screening company to provide passenger and baggage security screening services. An airport submits the SPP application to have employees of qualified private companies carry out the screening of passengers and property at the airport under a contract entered into with TSA. The application process is the initial notification to TSA Headquarters of an airport's desire to opt-out of the federal screening provided by TSA employees.
Intent To Request Renewal From OMB of One Current Public Collection of Information: TSA Pre✓® Application Program
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) invites public comment on one currently approved Information Collection Request (ICR), Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number 1652-0059, abstracted below, that we will submit to OMB for renewal in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. The collection involves the voluntary submission of biographic and biometric information that will be used for identity verification and to conduct a security threat assessment which includes vetting of an individual's voluntarily submitted information against law enforcement, immigration, and intelligence databases to determine if the person poses a low risk to transportation or national security and is eligible for expedited screening through TSA Pre[check][supreg] lanes at airports. This notice also provides initial information regarding TSA plans to expand opportunities for enrollment into the TSA Pre[check][supreg] Application Program by using additional contractors that will be permitted to market, enroll, and pre-screen individuals for TSA Pre[check][supreg] Application Program eligibility. Under the proposed expansion, selected contractors will collect biographic and biometric information from the applicant, and perform an initial prescreening of applicants using processes approved by TSA. Those applicants who meet the prescreening standards will be forwarded by the contractors to TSA, which shall perform a security threat assessment and make a final determination of the applicants' eligibility for the TSA Pre[check][supreg] Application Program.
