Information Collection Requirement
Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 44917, TSA has
authority to provide for deployment of
Federal Air Marshals (FAMs) on
passenger flights and provide for
appropriate training, supervision, and
equipment of FAMs. In furtherance of
this authority, TSA policy requires that
applicants for the Office of Law
Enforcement/Federal Air Marshal
positions meet certain medical and
mental health standards.
In order to evaluate whether
applicants meet TSA standards,
applicants must undergo a
psychological evaluation determining
that they do not have an established
medical history or clinical diagnosis of
psychosis, neurosis, or any other
personality or mental disorder that
clearly demonstrates a potential hazard
to the performance of FAM duties or the
safety of self or others. As part of the
psychological evaluation, applicants are
required to complete a certification form
regarding their mental health history
and provide an explanation for anything
they cannot certify. Applicants will be
asked whether they can certify various
statements including that they have
never been removed from work for
medical or psychological reasons.
Upon completion, applicants submit
the certification form directly to the
FAMS’ Medical Programs Division
(FAMS MPD) for initial screening via
fax, electronic upload via scanning
document, mail, or in person. The
FAMS MPD screens all certification
forms received. Any explanations for
uncertified items received will generally
require further review and follow-up by
a personal psychologist or psychiatrist.
This certification is carefully geared to
capitalize on other elements of the
assessment process, such as personal
interviews, physical task assessment,
background investigation, as well as the
other components of the medical
examination and assessment. TSA
estimates that there will be 600
respondents annually.
It will take each respondent
approximately one hour to complete the
certification form for a total annual hour
burden of 600 hours.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND
SECURITY
Transportation Security Administration
New Agency Information Collection
Activity Under OMB Review: Generic
Clearance for the Collection of
Qualitative Feedback on Agency
Service Delivery
Transportation Security
Administration, DHS.
ACTION: 30-day Notice.
AGENCY:

This notice announces that
the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) has forwarded the
new Information Collection Request
(ICR) abstracted below to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The
ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. TSA published a Federal
Register notice, with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments, of the
following collection of information on
May 16, 2012 (77 FR 28893). The
proposed information collection activity
provides a means to gather qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in
an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery.
DATES: Send your comments by August
20, 2012. A comment to OMB is most
effective if OMB receives it within 30
days of publication.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, OMB. Comments should be
addressed to Desk Officer, Department
of Homeland Security/TSA, and sent via
electronic mail to
[email protected] or faxed
to (202) 395–6974.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Susan L. Perkins, TSA PRA Officer,
Office of Information Technology (OIT),

Administration, 601 South 12th Street,

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 is
available at http://www.reginfo.gov.
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: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
Type of Request: New collection.
OMB Control Number: Not yet
assigned.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Individuals,
households, businesses, organizations,
and State, Local or Tribal Government.
Abstract: The proposed information
collection activity provides a means to
gather qualitative customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the
Administration’s commitment to
improving service delivery.
From the TSA perspective, qualitative
feedback from customers and
stakeholders is information that
provides useful insights on their
perceptions, experiences, opinions, and
expectations regarding TSA products or
services, provides TSA with an early
warning of issues with service, and
focuses attention on areas where
improvement is needed regarding
communication, training, or changes in
operations that might improve delivery
of products or services. These
collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between the Agency
and its customers and stakeholders.
They will also allow feedback to
contribute directly to the improvement

Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 140 / Friday, July 20, 2012 / Notices
of program management. The
solicitation of feedback will target areas
such as: Timeliness, appropriateness,
accuracy of information, courtesy,
efficiency of service delivery, and
resolution of issues with service
delivery. Responses will be assessed to
plan and inform efforts to improve or
maintain the quality of service offered
by TSA. If this information is not
collected, vital feedback from customers
and stakeholders on the Agency’s
services will be unavailable.
As a general matter, information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy
information and will not ask questions
of a sensitive nature. Information
gathered is intended to be used only
internally for general service
improvement and program management
purposes and is not intended for release
outside of the agency (if released, the
agency must indicate the qualitative
nature of the information). Feedback
collected under this generic clearance
provides useful qualitative information,
but it does not yield data that can be
generalized to the overall population.
Qualitative information is not designed
or expected to yield statistically reliable
or actionable results; it will not be used
for quantitative information collections.
Depending on the degree of influence
the results are likely to have, there may
be future information collection
submissions for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
Below we provide the Transportation
Security Administration’s projected
average estimates for the next three
years:
Number of Respondents: 125,000.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 33,450 hours annually.
Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on July 16,
2012.
