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 will be 

made available at https://

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; 

(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 Number 1652–0069; 

Military Severely Injured Joint Support 

Operations Center (MSIJSOC) and 

Travel Protocol Office (TPO) Programs. 

TSA established the MSIJSOC and the 

TPO programs to support and facilitate 

the movement of wounded warriors, 

severely injured military personnel, 

veterans, and other travelers requiring 

an escort through the airport security 

screening process. The MSIJSOC and 

TPO programs are available at 

commercial airports within the 

continental United States and its 

territories. 

The MSIJSOC program works with 

passengers who are wounded warriors, 

severely injured military members, and 

veterans. Once flight arrangements are 

made with the airlines, the traveler, his 

or her family, or other representative 

may contact the TSA Cares Hotline no 

later than 72 hours prior to their 

scheduled flight time with the details of 

the itinerary. TSA collects the traveler’s 

name, travel itinerary (flight departure 

and arrival information), and a point-ofcontact’s mobile phone number. Once 

TSA collects this information, TSA 

Cares contacts MSIJSOC, where the staff 

vets the request via the appropriate 

Wounded Warrior Care Coordinator to 

verify the eligibility for an escort of a 

wounded warrior, severely injured 

military member, or veteran. After 

verifying eligibility, the MSIJSOC 

contacts the respective TSA official at 

the appropriate airport for action. 

Additionally, the TPO program 

facilitates the movement of foreign 

dignitaries, accredited Ambassadors to 

the United States, and others who may 

require an escort through the airport 

security screening process. These 

travelers may contact the TPO office by 

submitting a request for travel support 

via telephone. Travelers and their 

points-of-contact should submit their 

travel support requests no later than 72 

hours prior to the respective scheduled 

flight to allow TSA to make timely 

notification regarding the travel. TSA 

collects the traveler’s name, travel 

itinerary (flight departure and arrival 

information), and a point-of-contact’s 

mobile phone number. 

The estimated annual burden for this 

collection is 444.7 hours. The estimated 

number of annual respondents is 5,336, 

with each response taking 

approximately 0.08333 hours (444.7 = 

5,336 × 0.08333).

Information Collection Requirement 

OMB Control Number 1652–0005; 

Security Programs for Foreign Air 

Carriers, 49 CFR part 1546. 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 and security of persons, 

property, and cargo transported on 

aircraft provided by the foreign air 

carrier against acts of criminal violence 

and air piracy, and the introduction of 

unauthorized explosives, incendiaries, 

or other destructive devices, items, or 

substances aboard an aircraft. The 

information TSA collects includes 

identifying information on foreign air 

carriers’ flight crews, passengers, and 

cargo. Specifically, TSA requires foreign 

air carriers to electronically 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 identifying 

information on a flight-by-flight basis; 

and (4) cargo shipment information. 

This information collection is 

mandatory for foreign air carriers and 

must be submitted before entry into the 

United States. 

Additionally, foreign air carriers must 

maintain these records, as well as 

training records for crew members and 

individuals performing security-related 

functions and other records of 

compliance associated with the security 

programs, and make them available to 

TSA for inspection upon request. TSA 

will continue to collect information 

described above to determine foreign air 

carrier compliance with requirements of 

49 CFR part 1546. TSA estimates that 

there will be approximately 180 

respondents to the information 

collection, with an annual burden 

estimate of 241,485 hours.
