In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501

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;

In addition to TSA’s broad
responsibility and authority for
‘‘security in all modes of transportation
. . . including security responsibilities
. . . over modes of transportation[,]’’ see
49 U.S.C. 114, TSA is required to issue
recommendations for pipeline security
measures and conduct inspections to
assess implementation of the
recommendations. See sec. 1557 of the
Implementing Recommendations of the
9/11 Commission Act of 2007, Public
Law 110–53 (August 3, 2007).
Consistent with these requirements,
TSA produced Pipeline Security
Guidelines in December 2010, with an
update published in March 2018.
As the lead Federal agency for
pipeline security and consistent with its
statutory authorities, TSA needs to be
notified of all (1) incidents that may
indicate a deliberate attempt to disrupt
pipeline operations and (2) activities
that could be precursors to such an
attempt. The Pipeline Security
Guidelines encourage pipeline operators
to notify the Transportation Security
Operations Center (TSOC) via phone or
email as soon as possible if any of the
following incidents occurs or if there is
other reason to believe that a terrorist
incident may be planned or may have
occurred:
• Explosions or fires of a suspicious
nature affecting pipeline systems,
facilities, or assets.
• Actual or suspected attacks on
pipeline systems, facilities, or assets.
• Bomb threats or weapons of mass
destruction (WMD) threats to pipeline
systems, facilities, or assets.
• Theft of pipeline company vehicles,
uniforms, or employee credentials.
• Suspicious persons or vehicles
around pipeline systems, facilities,
assets, or right-of-way.
• Suspicious photography or possible
surveillance of pipeline systems,
facilities, or assets.
• Suspicious phone calls from people
asking about the vulnerabilities or

• Suspicious individuals applying for
security-sensitive positions in the

• Theft or loss of Sensitive Security
Information (SSI) (detailed pipeline
maps, security plans, etc.).
• Actual or suspected cyber-attacks
that could impact pipeline Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)
or enterprise associated IT systems.
When voluntarily contacting the
TSOC, the Guidelines request pipeline
operators to provide as much of the
following information as possible:
• Name and contact information
(email address, telephone number).
• The time and location of the
incident, as specifically as possible.
• A description of the incident or
activity involved.

The potential burden to the public is
estimated to be 16 hours.

Information Collection Requirement
Title: Security Programs for Foreign
Air Carriers.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0005.
Forms(s): N/A.
Affected Public: Foreign air carriers.
Abstract: TSA uses the information
collected to determine compliance with
49 CFR part 1546 and to ensure
passenger safety by monitoring foreign
air carrier security procedures. Foreign
air carriers must carry out security
measures to provide for the safety of
persons and property traveling on
flights provided by the foreign air
carrier against acts of criminal violence
and air piracy, and the introduction of
explosives, incendiaries, or weapons
aboard an aircraft. The foreign air
carrier’s security program must provide
a level of protection similar to the level
of protection provided by U.S. aircraft
operators serving the same airports, and
the foreign air carrier must employ
procedures equivalent to those required
of U.S. aircraft operators serving the
same airport, if TSA determines such
procedures are necessary to provide a
similar level of protection. This
information collection is mandatory for
foreign air carriers and must be
submitted prior to entry into the United
States. The TSA information collection
includes providing information to TSA
as set forth in the carrier’s security
program, which includes any
amendments; maintaining records of
compliance with 49 CFR part 1546 and
the foreign air carrier’s security
program, including security training
records; suspicious incident reporting;
and submitting identifying information
on foreign air carriers’ flight crews and
passengers.
Number of Respondents: 180.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 1,278,352 hours annually.
Dated: October 23, 2018.
