SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comments Invited
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 is available
at http://www.reginfo.gov. 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.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control No. 1652-0035; Enhanced Security Procedures at Ronald
Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). TSA is seeking approval to
renew this collection of information.
TSA requires GA aircraft operators who wish to fly into and out of
DCA to designate a security coordinator and adopt the DASSP. Once
aircraft operators have adopted the DASSP, the operators must request a
tentative slot reservation from the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) and request authorization from TSA to fly into or out of DCA.
This information is collected under OMB control number 1652-0033 TSA
Airspace Waiver Program. If TSA approves the flight, TSA will transmit
that information to FAA.
The DASSP application collects basic information about the
applicant, the aircraft operator, and the security coordinator that the
operator wishes to designate, as well as the identifier of the airport
used as a base of operation and whether the operator presently complies
with a TSA Standard Security Program.
TSA also requires individuals designated as security coordinators
and flight crewmembers assigned to duty on a GA aircraft into and out
of DCA to submit fingerprints for a Criminal History Records Check
(CHRC). In addition, GA aircraft operator must also maintain CHRC
records of all employees and authorized representative for which a CHRC
has been completed. These records must be made available to TSA upon
request.
TSA estimates a total of 4,887 respondents annually. The total
number of annual burden hours is estimated to be 5,547 hours per year.
Dated: January 4, 2016.

TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology.
