SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.), an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it

Therefore,
[[Page 77885]]
in preparation for OMB review and approval of the following information
collection, TSA is soliciting comments to--
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed information requirement is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including using appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms
of information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652-0005; Security Programs for Foreign Air
Carriers, 49 CFR part 1546. TSA uses the information collected to
determine compliance with 49 CFR part 1546 and to ensure passenger
safety by monitoring foreign air carrier security procedures. Foreign
air carriers must carry out security measures to provide for the safety
and security of persons, property, and cargo transported on aircraft
provided by the foreign air carrier against acts of criminal violence
and air piracy, and the introduction of unauthorized explosives,
incendiaries, or other destructive devices, items, or substances aboard
an aircraft. The information TSA collects includes identifying
information on foreign air carriers' flight crews, passengers, and
cargo. Specifically, TSA requires foreign air carriers to
electronically submit the following information: (1) a master crew list
of all flight and cabin crew members flying to and from the United
States; (2) the flight crew list on a flight-by-flight basis; (3)
passenger identifying information on a flight-by-flight basis; and (4)
cargo shipment information. This information collection is mandatory
for foreign air carriers and must be submitted before entry into the
United States.
Additionally, foreign air carriers must maintain these records, as
well as training records for crew members and individuals performing
security-related functions and other records of compliance associated
with the security programs, and make them available to TSA for
inspection upon request. TSA will continue to collect information
described above to determine foreign air carrier compliance with
requirements of 49 CFR part 1546. TSA estimates that there will be
approximately 180 respondents to the information collection, with an
annual burden estimate of 241,485 hours.
Dated: September 19, 2024.

TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Information Technology.
