Self-Assessment form.
Affected Public: Pipeline companies.
Abstract: The 9/11 Act specifically
tasked TSA to develop and implement
a plan for reviewing the pipeline
security plans and inspecting critical
facilities of the 100 most critical
pipeline operators. See sec. 1557 of the
9/11 Act (Pub. L. 110–53; 121 Stat. 266,

facility security policies, procedures,
and physical security measures. TSA
uses the information to determine
strengths and weaknesses at the nation’s
critical pipeline facilities, areas to target
for risk reduction strategies, pipeline
industry implementation of the TSA
Pipeline Security Guidelines, and
operator implementation of
recommendations made during TSA
critical facility visits.
The collection of information is being
revised to align the Critical Facility
Security Review question set with the
revised Pipeline Security Guidelines
(with Change 1 (April 2021)), and to
capture additional criticality criteria. In
addition, on May 26, 2021, OMB
approved the emergency request,
requiring owner/operators of a critical
hazardous liquid and natural gas
pipeline or liquefied natural gas facility
to review Section 7 of TSA’s Pipeline
Security Guidelines (with Change 1
(April 2021)), and assess current
activities, using the TSA Pipeline
Cybersecurity Self-Assessment form, to
address cyber risk, and identify
remediation measures that will be taken
to fill those gaps and a timeframe for
achieving those measures.
Number of Respondents: 260.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An
estimated 1400 hours annually.1

Information Collection Requirement
Title: Pipeline Operator Security
Information.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number: 1652–0055.
Forms(s): CISA Reporting System
form.
Affected Public: Pipeline system
operators.
Abstract: In addition to TSA’s broad
responsibility and authority for
‘‘security in all modes of transportation’’
under 49 U.S.C. 114(d), TSA is
statutorily required to develop and
transmit to pipeline operators security
recommendations for natural gas and
hazardous liquid pipelines and pipeline
facilities. See sec. 1557 of the
Implementing Recommendations of the
9/11 Commission Act of 2007, Public
Law 110–53 (121 Stat. 266; August 3,
2007), codified at 6 U.S.C. 1207.
Consistent with these requirements,
TSA produced Pipeline Security
Guidelines in December 2010, and April
2011, with updates published in March
2018 and April 2021. Among the
recommendations, TSA encourages
pipeline operators to notify TSA 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.
In addition, on May 26, 2021, OMB
approved TSA’s request for an
emergency revision of this information
collection based on TSA’s issuance of a
Security Directive (SD) with
requirements for TSA-specified critical
pipeline owner/operators of hazardous
liquid and natural gas pipelines and
liquefied natural gas facilities to report
cybersecurity incidents or potential
cybersecurity incidents on their
information and operational technology
systems to the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
within 12 hours of identification of a
cybersecurity incident using the CISA
Reporting System. The SD also requires
critical pipeline owner/operators to
appoint cybersecurity coordinators, who
must be available to TSA and CISA 24/
7 to coordinate cybersecurity practices
and address any incidents that arise,
and to provide contact information for
the coordinators to TSA.1
Number of Respondents: 100.
1 The additional requirement in the SD to conduct
a cybersecurity assessment is covered under a
separate OMB control number 1652–0050 Critical
Facility Information of the Top 100 Most Critical
Pipelines.
