Information Collection Requirement Title: Pipeline Corporate Security Review (PCSR). Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. OMB Control Number: 1652-0056. Forms(s): Pipeline Corporate Security Review (PCSR) Protocol Form. Affected Public: Hazardous Liquids and Natural Gas Pipeline Industry. Abstract: Under the Aviation and Transportation Security Act (ATSA) and delegated authority from the Secretary of Homeland Security, TSA is tasked with developing policies, strategies, and plans for dealing with transportation security. To carry out this responsibility regarding pipelines, TSA assesses current industry security practices through its PCSR program. The PCSR is a voluntary, face-to-face visit with a pipeline owner/operator during which TSA discusses an owner/operator's corporate security planning and the entries made by the owner/operator on the PCSR Form. The PCSR Form includes 218 questions concerning the owner/operator's corporate level security planning, covering security topics such as physical security, vulnerability assessments, training, and emergency communications. TSA uses the information collected during the PCSR process to determine baseline security standards, potential areas of security vulnerability, and industry ``smart'' practices throughout the pipeline mode. Number of Respondents: 15 respondents annually. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 120 hours annually. Dated: June 22, 2016.
