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. 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
Title: Transportation Security Officer
(TSO) Medical Questionnaire.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0032.
Forms(s): Transportation Security
Officer Medical Questionnaire; further
evaluation forms.
Affected Public: Candidates under
employment consideration for
Transportation Security Officer
positions.
Abstract: TSA is requesting approval
to revise this collection of information
to comply with 49 U.S.C. 44935, which
requires TSA to establish qualification
standards for the employment of
security screening personnel. With
approval from OMB, TSA currently
collects information via a
Transportation Security Officer (TSO)
Medical Questionnaire. TSA now seeks
approval to make revisions to the form
(and to adjust the title as a result of the
conversion from Transportation
Security Screeners to Transportation
Security Officers on February 5, 2005).
TSA also seeks approval to include
additional supplemental medical forms,
which are required in circumstances
where TSA needs the additional
medical information to make a
determination regarding the candidate’s
qualifications for the TSO job. Only
those TSOs who are required to undergo
a follow-up medical exam will be
required to bring a supplemental form
(or forms) to the exam, a portion of
which their physician will complete.
This collection of information assists
the agency in ensuring that candidates
under employment consideration for
TSO positions meet the qualification
standards to perform the functions of
the positions successfully. TSA collects
the information through a medical
questionnaire and supplemental forms.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
57,038. After further evaluation of the
annual respondent population, TSA is
revising the estimate noted in its April
2006 notice from 22,800 respondents.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
19,013. After further evaluation of the
respondent population and hour burden
estimate, TSA is revising the estimate
