Revision of Agency Information Collection Activity Under OMB Review: Pipeline Corporate Security Reviews and Security Directives
This notice announces that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has forwarded the Information Collection Request (ICR), Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number 1652-0056, abstracted below, to OMB for review and approval of a revision of the currently approved collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. This collection combines TSA's voluntary Pipeline Corporate Security Review (PCSR) program with the mandatory requirements under the TSA Security Directive (SD) Pipeline-2021-02 series. The collection allows TSA to assess the current security practices in the pipeline industry through TSA's PCSR program, which is part of the larger domain awareness, prevention, and protection program supporting TSA's and the Department of Homeland Security's missions. The collection also allows for the continued institution of mandatory cybersecurity requirements under the TSA SD Pipeline-2021-02 series. The updated ICR reflects changes to collection requirements based on TSA's update to the SD Pipline-2021-02 series, released on July 21, 2022.
Frequency of Renewal Cycle for Indirect Air Carrier Security Programs
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is proposing to modify its regulations to reduce the frequency of renewal applications by indirect air carriers (IACs). Rather than requiring these entities to submit an application to renew their security program each year, TSA is proposing to require renewal once every three years. This modification would reduce the burden of compliance without a negative impact on security and would support this industry's economic recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 public health crisis.
Enhancing Surface Cyber Risk Management
On November 30, 2022, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM) seeking input regarding ways to strengthen cybersecurity and resiliency in the pipeline and rail (including freight, passenger, and transit rail) sectors. The ANPRM solicited comment on specific questions, which would assist TSA in better understanding how the pipeline and rail sectors implement cyber risk management in their operations, support TSA in achieving objectives related to the enhancement of pipeline and rail cybersecurity, and help TSA develop a comprehensive and forward-looking approach to cybersecurity requirements. Through this document, TSA is extending the comment period by 15 calendar days to provide additional time for the public to provide comments.
