4056 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 17 / Thursday, January 26, 2012 / Notices 

security programs and associated 

records available for inspection and 

copying by TSA to ensure transportation 

security and regulatory compliance. 

The information requested of aircraft 

operators has increased due to the 

security measures mandated by the 

Federal Government since September 

11, 2001. The information TSA now 

collects includes identifying 

information on aircraft operators’ flight 

crews, passengers and cargo. 

Specifically, TSA requires aircraft 

operators to submit the following 

information: (1) A master crew list of all 

flight and cabin crew members flying to 

and from the United States; (2) the flight 

crew list on a flight-by-flight basis; (3) 

passenger information on a flight-byflight basis; (4) total amount of cargo 

screened; and (5) total amount of cargo 

screened at 100%. Aircraft operators 

may provide the information 

electronically or manually. Under this 

regulation, aircraft operators must 

ensure that flight crew members and 

employees with unescorted access 

authority to a Security Identification 

Display Area (SIDA) or who perform 

screening, checked baggage, or cargo 

functions submit to and receive a 

criminal history records check (CHRC). 

As part of the CHRC process, the 

individual must provide identifying 

information, including fingerprints. 

Additionally, aircraft operators must 

maintain these records, and records 

associated with compliance with 

Security Directives, and make them 

available to TSA for inspection and 

copying upon request. 

TSA estimates that there will be 

approximately 800 respondents to the 

information requirements described 

above, requiring approximately 

1,841,130 hours per year to process.
