TSA Claims Management Office (CMO)
requests certain information to investigate tort claims filed
against TSA for property damage, property loss, personal injury, or
death. TSA needs to collect certain information from claimants, in
addition to that collected on the Standard Form 95, to investigate
claims properly. TSA is seeking approval for its two supplemental
forms, as well as for a pilot electronic claims system currently in
development, which will ease the burden on claimants and streamline
the claims process.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
