The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) is seeking a revision of the TSA Customer
Comment Card information collection. The card is being used at
airports for customer complaints, compliments, and
suggestions.
Several new response elements
were added to the ICR, resulting in a change in the both the number
of responses and burden hours associated with this information
collection. TSA developed online submission forms with multiple
dropdown menu options in response to GAO audit recommendations, OMB
terms of clearance, and initiatives of the Deputy Secretary of
Homeland Security. The forms will permit customers to submit
feedback and Civil Rights and Liberties comments and complaints
electronically. These online submission forms include the Security
Issue, the Request for Information, and the form to allow
passengers to submit requests for assistance at the TSA checkpoint
before they travel.
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.
