In accordance with the Paperwork

Information Collection Requirement
Title: TSA PreCheckTM Application
Program.
Type of Request: Revision of currently
approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0059.
Form(s): NA.
Affected Public: Air Travelers.
Abstract: The Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) implemented the
TSA PreCheck Application Program
pursuant to its authority under sec.
109(a)(3) of the Aviation and
Transportation Security Act (ATSA),
Public Law 107–71 (115 Stat. 597, 613,
Nov. 19, 2001, codified at 49 U.S.C. 114
note), which authorizes TSA to establish
registered traveler programs, as well as
section 540 of the DHS Appropriations
Act, 2006, Public Law 109–90 (119 Stat.
2064, 2088–89, Oct. 18, 2005), which
requires TSA to collect a fee for any
registered traveler program by
publication of a notice in the Federal
Register.
The TSA PreCheck Application
Program enhances aviation security by
permitting TSA to more effectively
focus its limited security resources on
passengers for whom TSA has little
information, 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 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 PreCheck Application
Program participants and any other
travelers authorized to receive
expedited physical screening.
Under the TSA PreCheck Application
Program, individuals submit biographic
(including, but not limited to, name,
date of birth, gender, prior and current
addresses, contact information, country
of birth, images of identity documents,
proof of citizenship/immigration status)
and biometric (such as fingerprints, iris
scans, and/or facial images) information
to TSA’s enrollment providers.
Enrollment providers transmit these
data via secure interface to TSA.
Referencing law enforcement,
citizenship or immigration, regulatory
violation, and intelligence databases,
TSA uses applicants’ biographic and
biometric information collected during
pre-enrollment, enrollment, or postenrollment to conduct security threat
assessments (STAs) and to verify
applicants’ identity (at enrollment and/
or at the time of travel) and citizenship.
TSA uses STA results to determine

30980

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 99 / Thursday, May 21, 2020 / Notices

whether an individual poses a low risk
to transportation or national security
justifying eligibility for TSA PreCheck.
TSA makes the final determination on
eligibility for the TSA PreCheck
Application Program and notifies the
applicant of the decision. On average,
applicants receive notification from
TSA within two to three weeks of the
submission of their completed
applications. Approved applicants are
issued a Known Traveler Number (KTN)
that is used for multiple purposes.
Airline passengers who submit their
KTN when making airline reservations
may be eligible for expedited screening
on flights originating from U.S.
airports.1 TSA uses the traveler’s KTN
and other information during passenger
pre-screening to verify that the
individual traveling matches the
information on TSA’s list of known
travelers and to confirm TSA PreCheck
expedited screening eligibility. TSA
may also use the information collected,
or verify the KTN and KTN-holder
information, to determine a KTN
holder’s eligibility for other programs,
such as potential eligibility for a
reduced fee for another vetting program
or participation in other DHS Trusted
Traveler programs. TSA also will use
the information submitted for identity
verification at airport security
checkpoints.
Eligibility for the TSA PreCheck
Application Program is within the sole
discretion of TSA, which provides
written notification to applicants denied
eligibility, including reasons for the
denial. Applicants who are initially
deemed ineligible or are later identified
to be ineligible due to the identification
of new disqualifying information
through recurrent vetting have an
opportunity to correct cases of
misidentification or inaccurate criminal
or citizenship/immigration records. For
example, if advised during the
application eligibility review process
that the criminal record discloses a
disqualifying criminal offense, the
applicant has 60 days from the date of
the denial letter to submit written
notification of an intent to correct any
information he or she believes to be
inaccurate. The applicant must also
provide a certified, revised record, or
the appropriate court must forward a
certified true copy of the information.
TSA will review any information
1 Passengers who are eligible for expedited
screening typically will receive more limited
physical screening, e.g., will be able to leave on
their shoes, light outerwear, and belt, to keep their
laptop in its case, and to keep their 3–1–1
compliant liquids/gels bag in a carry-on. For
airports with dedicated TSA PreCheck lanes, see

submitted and make a final decision. If
TSA does not receive a notification or
a corrected record, the agency may make
a final determination to deny eligibility.
Individuals ineligible for the TSA
PreCheck Application Program are
screened at airport security checkpoints
pursuant to TSA’s screening protocols.
TSA is seeking a revision to the
currently approved request to reflect
additional enrollment and enrollment
provider 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
enrollment providers to offer additional
TSA PreCheck Application Program
enrollment opportunities at airports to
reduce the burden on frequent travelers.
As TSA continues to improve identity
verification at enrollment, enrollment
providers may use public records,
commercial sources, or other databases
containing identity information to assist
in identity verification. 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
PreCheck members after enrollment
through additional surveys to determine
satisfaction and customer engagement
with TSA PreCheck.
Average Annual Number of
Respondents: An estimated 6,533,518
average respondents over a three-year
period. This estimate includes initial
enrollments, renewals, and current
members who would respond to
voluntary surveys, as well as nonrenewing individuals who respond to
voluntary surveys.
Average Annual Number of
Responses: An estimated 8,080,040
average responses over a three-year
period. There could be multiple
responses per respondent depending on
the requested information.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 3,397,652 average hours based
on a three-year projection.2 This
estimate includes the time for preenrollment, all aspects of enrollment
(including voluntary surveys), and
correction of records if needed.
Estimated Cost Burden: A
$252,601,799 average cost burden based
2 TSA updated the annual estimates for the
respondents and burden hours since the submission
of the 60-day notice, which indicated respondents
of 3,113,122 and burden hours of 4,211,661.

on a three-year projection. With the
addition of multiple enrollment
providers, TSA plans to allow each
provider to set its own enrollment fee.
As such, TSA expects that the publicfacing TSA PreCheck fee will vary
across providers. In addition, TSA
expects that the renewal fee will also
decrease. For the purposes of estimating
a cost burden, TSA has estimated that
the fee will be approximately $85 for
initial enrollments and drop to
approximately $75 for renewals. These
fees cover TSA’s program costs, the FBI
fee for the criminal history records
check when required, and enrollment
providers’ costs.
