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.
The Pipeline Corporate Security
Review is a new information collection
request that will assess domain
awareness, threat prevention, and
security awareness at various pipeline
sites across the nation. TSA’s pipeline
subject matter expert(s) will visit sites,
interview pipeline operators and/or
system owners, and use a pipeline
security review form to gather
information.
Under the Aviation and
Transportation Security Act (ATSA) 1
and delegated authority from the
Secretary of Homeland Security, TSA
has broad responsibility and authority
for ‘‘security in all modes of
transportation * * * including security
responsibilities * * * over modes of
transportation that are exercised by the
Department of Transportation.’’ 2 TSA
has additional authorities as well. TSA
is specifically empowered to develop
policies, strategies, and plans for
dealing with threats to transportation,3
oversees the implementation and
ensures the adequacy of security
measures at transportation facilities,4
and carries out other appropriate duties
relating to transportation security.5
1 Public Law 107–71, 115 Stat. 597 (November 19,
2001).
2 See 49 U.S.C. 114(d). The TSA Assistant
Secretary’s current authorities under ATSA have
been delegated to her/him by the Secretary of
Homeland Security. Section 403(2) of the Homeland
Security Act (HSA) of 2002, Public Law 107–296,
116 Stat. 2315 (2002), transferred all functions of
TSA, including those of the Secretary of
Transportation and the Under Secretary of
Transportation of Security related to TSA, to the
Secretary of Homeland Security. Pursuant to DHS
Delegation Number 7060.2, the Secretary delegated
to the Assistant Secretary (then referred to as the
Administrator of TSA), subject to the Secretary’s
guidance and control, the authority vested in the
Secretary with respect to TSA, including that in
section 403(2) of the HSA.

Purpose and Description of Data
Collection
One way TSA carries out these
responsibilities in the pipeline mode is
by assessing current industry security
practices by way of its PCSR. The PCSR
encompasses site visits and interviews
and is one piece of a much larger
domain awareness, prevention, and
protection program in support of TSA’s
and DHS’ missions. TSA is seeking
OMB approval for this information
collection so that TSA can ascertain
minimum security standards and
identify coverage gaps, activities that are
critical to carrying out its transportation
security mission.
The PCSR is an ‘‘instructive’’ review
that provides TSA with an
understanding of certain surface
transportation owners’/operators’
security programs, if they have
voluntarily adopted such programs. In
carrying out PCSRs, subject matter
experts from TSA’s Pipeline Security
Division conduct site visits of pipeline
operators throughout the nation that
elected to adopt security plans. The
TSA representatives analyze the
owner’s/operator’s security plan and
determine if the mitigation measures
included in the plan are being properly
implemented. In addition to examining
the security plan document, TSA
reviews one or more assets of the
owner/operator. TSA conducts this
collection of information on security
measures to identify security gaps. The
discussions also provide TSA with a
method to encourage the pipeline
owners/operators affected by the PCSRs
to be diligent in implementing and
maintaining security-related
improvements.
During the pipeline site visits, TSA
talks with the owner/operator and
completes a PCSR form, which asks
questions concerning the following
topics: (1) Management and oversight of
the security plan, (2) threat assessment,
(3) criticality, (4) vulnerability
assessment, (5) credentialing, (6)
training, (7) physical security
countermeasures, (8) information
technology security, (9) security
exercises and drills, and (10) incident
management and communications. TSA
conducts this collection through
voluntary face-to-face visits, usually at
the headquarters facility of the pipeline
owners/operator. Typically, TSA sends
one to three employees to conduct a
three to four hour interview with
representatives from the owner/
operator. TSA then visits one or two of
the owners/operators assets to further
assess the implementation of the
owner’s/operator’s security plan. TSA

plans to collect information from
pipeline operators of all sizes in the
course of conducting these PCSRs.
Use of Results
This program provides TSA with realtime information on current security
practices within the pipeline mode of
the surface transportation sector. This
information allows TSA to adapt
programs to the changing security
threat, while incorporating an
understanding of the improvements
owners/operators make in their security
measures. Without this information, the
ability of TSA to perform its security
mission would be severely hindered.
Additionally, the relationships these
face-to-face contacts foster are critical to
the Federal government’s ability to
reach out to the pipeline stakeholders
affected by the PCSRs. The relationships
foster a sense of trust and a willingness
to share information with the Federal

government. TSA assures respondents
that the portion of their responses that
is deemed Sensitive Security
Information (SSI) will be protected in
accordance with procedures meeting the
transmission, handling, and storage
requirements of SSI set forth in 49 CFR
parts 15 and 1520.
The annual hour burden for this
information collection is estimated to be
100 hours. While TSA estimates a total
of 2,200 potential respondents, this
estimate is based on TSA conducting 12
visits per year and each visit lasting 8
hours. There is no cost burden to
respondents.
