Security Automated Biometrics
Identification System (IDENT) and its
successor systems for recurrent vetting
of applicants’ criminal history, lawful
presence, and ties to terrorism.
TSA is revising the collection of
information to reflect additional
enrollment and vendor options in
accordance with the TSA Modernization
Act, Division K of the FAA
Reauthorization Act of 2018, Public Law
115–254 (132 Stat. 3185; Oct. 5, 2018)
at section 1937, codified at 49 U.S.C.
44919. TSA expects to offer additional
TSA Pre✓® Application Program
enrollment opportunities at airports to
reduce the burden on frequent travelers.
Enrollment vendors may use
commercial sources for the purpose of
identity verification, or they may
contact issuing sources of identity
documents, such as State departments
of motor vehicles for the same purpose.
This revision also addresses TSA’s
plans to utilize DHS components’
services, provided via U.S. Customs and
Border Protection and the Office of
Biometric Identity Management, to
support TSA’s biometric-based
identification at the checkpoint and
citizenship verification through
passport information provided by the
Department of State. Lastly, TSA
intends to collect information from TSA
Pre✓® members after enrollment
through surveys to determine
satisfaction and customer engagement
with TSA Pre✓®.
When the STA is complete, TSA
makes a final determination on
eligibility for the TSA Pre✓®
Application Program and notifies
applicants of its decision. Most
applicants generally should expect to
receive notification from TSA within
two to three weeks of the submission of
their completed applications. If initially
deemed ineligible by TSA, applicants
will have an opportunity to correct
cases of misidentification or inaccurate
criminal records. Applicants must
submit a correction of any information
they believe to be inaccurate within 60
days of issuance of TSA’s letter. If a
corrected record is not received by TSA
within the specified amount of time, the
agency may make a final determination
to deny eligibility. Individuals who TSA
determines are ineligible for the TSA
Pre✓® Application Program will
undergo standard screening at airport
security checkpoints.
The TSA Pre✓® Application Program
enhances aviation security by
permitting TSA to better focus its
limited security resources on passengers
who are unknown to TSA and whose
level of risk is undetermined, while also
facilitating and improving the

commercial aviation travel experience
for the public. Travelers who choose not
to enroll in this initiative are not subject
to any limitations on their travel
because of their choice; they will be
processed through normal TSA
screening before entering the sterile
areas of airports. TSA also retains the
authority to perform standard or other
screening on a random basis on TSA
Pre✓® Application Program participants
and any other travelers authorized to
receive expedited physical screening.
TSA estimates that there will be
1,815,779 new enrollments, 1,245,184
online renewals, and 52,159 in-person
renewals (3,113,122 total enrollments)
annualized over a three-year period.
This estimate is based on current and
projected enrollment with TSA’s
existing program. TSA estimates that
there will be 4,211,661 annualized
hours based on a three-year projection
to include enrollment, renewals, and
surveys. TSA estimates an average of
1.8968 hours per applicant to complete
the enrollment process, which includes
providing biographic and biometric
information to TSA (via an enrollment
center or pre- or post-enrollment
options) and the burden for any records
correction for the applicant, if
applicable. TSA estimates an average of
0.1666 hours per applicant to complete
the on-line renewal process. TSA
estimates an average of 0.0833 hours per
an estimated 6,310,473 annual survey
respondents to include post-enrollment,
non-renewal and other TSA Pre✓®
surveys.

approved collection under the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The
ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. TSA infoBoards (formerly
WebBoards) is an information-sharing
environment designed to serve
stakeholders in the transportation
security community and is used to
disseminate mission-critical
information. It provides stakeholders
with an online portal, which allows
authorized users to obtain, post, and
exchange information, access common
resources, and communicate with
similarly situated individuals. Utilizing
and inputting information into TSA
infoBoards is completely voluntary.

Sfmt 4703

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 will be
available at http://www.reginfo.gov
upon its submission to OMB. 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.
Consistent with the requirements of
Executive Order (E.O.) 13771, Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs, and E.O. 13777, Enforcing the
Regulatory Reform Agenda, TSA is also
requesting comments on the extent to
which this request for information could
be modified to reduce the burden on
respondents.
