Information Collection Requirement
Title: TSA Reimbursable Screening Services Program (RSSP) Pilot
Request.
Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652-0073.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Public or private entities regulated by TSA.
Abstract: The RSSP is authorized by section 225, Division A, of the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2019, as amended to extend RSSP
through 2026.\1\ 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, ``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.'' TSA
is collecting this information to enable public and private entities
regulated by TSA to request screening services under the RSSP.
