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
displays a valid OMB control number. The ICR documentation will be
available at <a href="https://www.reginfo.gov">https://www.reginfo.gov</a> upon its submission to OMB.
Therefore, 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
The Reimbursable Screening Services Program (``RSSP'') is
authorized by section 225, Division A, of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2019, Public Law 116-6, 133 Stat. 13 (Feb. 15,
2019), as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, Section
223, Division F, Public Law 116-260, 134 Stat. 1459 (Dec. 27, 2020),
and as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, Section
222, Division F, Public Law 117-328 (Dec. 29. 2022), which extended
RSSP through fiscal year 2025. Under this provision, TSA may establish
a pilot for public or private entities regulated by TSA to request
reimbursable screening services outside of an existing primary
passenger terminal screening area where screening services are
currently provided or eligible to be provided under TSA's annually
appropriated passenger screening program. For purposes of section 225
(k), ``screening services'' means ``the screening of passengers, flight
crews, and their carry-on baggage and personal articles, and may
include checked baggage screening if that type of screening is
performed at an offsite location that is not part of a passenger
terminal of a commercial airport.'' See 133 Stat. 13, 26. TSA
established an application process for public and private entities
regulated by TSA to request screening services under the RSSP.
Public or private entities regulated by TSA interested in
participating in the RSSP may submit an application to the TSA
Administrator requesting that TSA provide screening services outside of
an existing primary passenger terminal screening area where screening
services are currently provided or eligible to be provided under TSA's
annually appropriated passenger screening program as a primary
passenger terminal screening area. The request may only be submitted to
TSA after consultation with the relevant local airport authority. The
application is used to identify basic information to grant approval or
denial. The application process includes TSA Form 459, TSA Reimbursable
Screening Services Program (RSSP) Pilot Request, which collects the
following information: stakeholder information, services being
requested, location of requested services and available facilities to
perform requested services.
The respondents to this information collection request are public
or private entities regulated by TSA requesting the screening services
at an airport that is a commercial service airport (as defined by 49
U.S.C. 47107(7)). TSA estimates the annual respondents to be no more
than 15. The annual burden for the information collection related to
providing screening services is estimated to be 492 hours.
Dated: July 29, 2025.

Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Information Technology, Transportation
Security Administration.
