Intent to Request Renewal From OMB
of One Current Public Collection of
Information: TSA Claims Management

ACTION: 60-day notice.

Sfmt 4703
The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) invites public
comment on one currently approved
Information Collection Request (ICR),
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number 1652–0039,
abstracted below that we will submit to
OMB for renewal in compliance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA).
The ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. The collection involves the
submission of information from
claimants in order to thoroughly
examine and resolve tort claims against
the agency.
DATES: Send your comments by June 1,
2015.
ADDRESSES: Comments may be emailed
to [email protected] or delivered to
the TSA PRA Officer, Office of
Information Technology (OIT), TSA–11,
Transportation Security Administration,
601 South 12th Street, Arlington, VA
20598–6011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Christina A. Walsh at the above address,
or by telephone (571) 227–2062.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
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.

the agency. TSA receives approximately

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 62 / Wednesday, April 1, 2015 / Notices
1,000 tort claims per month arising from
airport screening activities and other
circumstances, including motor vehicle
accidents and employee loss. The
Federal Tort Claims Act (28 U.S.C.
1346(b), 1402(b), 2401(b), 2671–2680) is
the authority under which the TSA
Claims Management Branch adjudicates
tort claims.
The data is collected whenever an
individual believes s/he has
experienced property loss or damage, a
personal injury, or other damages due to
the negligence or wrongful act or
omission of a TSA employee, and
decides to file a Federal tort claim
against TSA. Submission of a claim is
entirely voluntary and initiated by
individuals. The claimants (or
respondents) to this collection are
typically the traveling public. Currently,
claimants file a claim by submitting to
TSA a Standard Form 95 (SF–95), which
has been approved under OMB control
number 1105–0008. Because TSA
requires further clarifying information,
claimants are asked to complete a
Supplemental Information page added
to the SF–95. If TSA determines
payment is warranted, TSA will send
the claimant a form requesting banking
information (routing and accounting
numbers) in order to direct payment to
the claimant. This form has been
approved under OMB control number
1652–0039.
Claim instructions and forms are
available through the TSA Web site at
http://www.tsa.gov. Claimants must
download these forms and mail or fax
them to TSA. On the Supplemental
Information page, claimants are asked to
provide additional claim information
including: (1) Email address, (2) airport,
(3) location of incident within the
airport, (4) complete travel itinerary, (5)
whether baggage was delayed by airline,
(6) why they believe TSA was negligent,
(7) whether they used a third-party
baggage service, (8) whether they were
traveling under military orders, and (9)
whether they submitted claims with the
airlines or insurance companies.
If TSA determines payment is
warranted, TSA sends the claimant a
form requesting: (1) Claimant signature,
(2) banking information, and (3) Social
Security number (required by the U.S.
Treasury for all Government payments
to the public pursuant to 31 U.S.C.
3325).
Under the current system of claims
submitted by mail or fax, TSA estimates
there will be approximately 10,000
respondents on an annual basis, for a
total annual hour burden of 6,000 hours.

Use of Results
TSA will use all data collected from
claimants to examine and analyze tort
claims against the agency to determine
alleged TSA liability and to reimburse
claimants when claims are approved. In
some cases, TSA may use the
information to identify victims of theft
or to aid any criminal investigations
into property theft.
