SUMMARY: The Transportation Security 

Administration (TSA) invites public 

comment on one currently approved 

Information Collection Request (ICR), 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) control number 1652–0033, that 

we will submit to OMB for an extension 

in compliance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA). The ICR describes 

the nature of the information collection 

and its expected burden. The collection 

of information allows TSA to conduct 

security threat assessments on 

individuals on board aircraft operating 

in restricted airspace pursuant to an 

airspace waiver or flight authorization. 

DATES: Send your comments by 

November 19, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Comments may be emailed 

to TSAPRA@tsa.dhs.gov or delivered to 

the TSA PRA Officer, Information 

Technology (IT), TSA–11, 

Transportation Security Administration, 

6595 Springfield Center Drive, 

Springfield, VA 20598–6011. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Christina A. Walsh at the above address, 

or by telephone (571) 227–2062. 

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 will be 

available at http://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 1652–0033; 

TSA Airspace Waiver Program. TSA is 

seeking approval to extend this 

collection of information. The airspace 

waiver program allows U.S. and foreign 

general aviation aircraft operators to 

apply for approval to operate in U.S. 

restricted airspace, including flying over 

the United States and its territories. This 

program includes both processing of 

applications for airspace waivers and 

flight authorizations for flights operating 

under the Ronald Reagan Washington 

National Airport (DCA) Access Standard 

Security Program (see subpart B of 49 

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 179 / Monday, September 20, 2021 / Notices 52167 

CFR part 1562), which requires namebased security threat assessments 

(STAs) for all passengers, flight crews 

and armed security officers on board 

each flight. TSA uses the information to 

conduct STAs of persons on these 

flights to protect against and mitigate 

threats to transportation or national 

security. 

TSA collects information from 

applicants applying for a waiver or 

flight authorization either online via 

https://waivers.faa.gov, or by 

completing a waiver or flight 

authorization form, which can be 

requested via facsimile. To ensure 

adequate time to process the 

information and obtain approval, TSA 

recommends that applicants submit the 

request electronically within five 

business days before the start-date of the 

flight. 

The type of information collected 

depends upon the purpose of the 

application. Both waiver and flight 

authorization requests must include the 

purpose of the flight, the aircraft type 

and registration number, including 

aircraft operator’s company name and 

address, and the proposed itinerary. 

When applying for a waiver, the aircraft 

operator must submit the above 

information about the flight and provide 

the names, dates and places of birth, 

and Social Security or passport numbers 

for all passengers and crew on board the 

flight for TSA to perform a STA on each 

individual. Likewise, to obtain a flight 

authorization, the aircraft operator must 

submit the same information as for 

when applying for waiver on all 

passengers and flight crews, and as well 

as for armed security officers on board 

each flight for TSA to perform a namebased STA on each individual. The 

information collected about passengers, 

crew, and armed security officers, as 

applicable, must include names, dates 

and places of birth, and Social Security 

or passport numbers. 

The estimated number of respondents 

is 8,801, and the annual reporting 

burden is 6,785 hours. 

Dated: September 15, 2021.
