Annual Burden Discussion
For the voluntary Pipeline CSR
program, TSA estimates that they will
conduct 21 security reviews per year,
each involving a pipeline security
manager. TSA estimates that each CSR
will last a total of 8 hours, and then
include a follow-up regarding security
recommendations, lasting up to 3 hours.
The total time burden for this task is 231
hours ((1 security manager × 8 hours ×
21 entities = 168 hours) + (1 individual
× 3 hours × 21 entities = 63 hours)).
For the mandatory information
collections required by the SD
Pipeline—2021–02 series, all designated
pipeline Owner/Operators have
submitted and approved CIPs. TSA
estimates that a total of 100 Owner/
Operators will continue to update their
CIPs and submit changes to TSA for
approval as necessary as cyber controls
are updated or changed. The burden is
therefore the estimated time annually to
keep the CIP current and provide
changes to TSA for approval as
necessary. TSA estimates updates to the
CIP will be conducted by a team
consisting of a cybersecurity manager
and four cybersecurity analysts/
specialists. TSA assumes the team will
spend 2 weeks updating the
implementation plan; therefore, the time
burden for this task is 40,000 hours (5
individuals × 40 hours × 2 weeks × 100
entities).
All designated pipeline Owner/
Operators have established CIRPs. TSA
estimates 100 entities will update their
CIRPs annually. TSA assumes one
cybersecurity manager will spend 2
weeks updating the CIRP; therefore, the
time burden for this task is 8,000 hours
(1 individual × 40 hours × 2 weeks × 100
entities).9
All designated pipeline Owner/
Operators have a TSA approved CAP.
TSA estimates 100 entities will submit
an annual plan for their CAP and an
annual report. TSA estimates that two
people, a cybersecurity manager and an
audit compliance manager will spend
an average of 2 weeks developing and
submitting the plan and report;
therefore, the time burden for this task
is 16,000 hours (2 individuals × 40
hours × 2 weeks × 100 entities).
TSA estimates 100 entities will work
to ensure compliance documentation is
kept up to date. TSA estimates that two
9 There is no requirement for Owner/Operators to
submit CIRPs unless requested by TSA. In February
2022, under the provisions of the SD Pipeline 2021–
02 series and at TSA’s request, pipeline Owner/
Operators provided their CIRPs to TSA.

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 the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Information Collection Requirement
OMB Control Number 1652–0046;
Secure Flight Program, 49 CFR part
1560. Under the Secure Flight Program,
the TSA collects information from
covered aircraft operators, which
includes U.S. aircraft operators, foreign
air carriers, and U.S. airports, in order
to prescreen passengers and individuals
seeking access to the sterile area of the
airport. Specifically, the information
collected is used to facilitate the process
for assessing passengers’ risk by
matching against lists of persons who
pose or are suspected of posing an
elevated risk to transportation or
national security, for matching against
lists of Known Travelers to identify
passengers who may be eligible for
expedited screening, and to distinguish
individuals with identifying
information similar to those on highand low-risk lists to ensure that each
passenger receives the appropriate
screening and protect against
misidentification. The collection covers
the following:
(1) Secure Flight Passenger Data
(SFPD) for passengers of covered flights
within, to, from, or over the continental
U.S., as well as flights between two

foreign locations when operated by a
covered U.S. aircraft operator.
(2) SFPD for passengers of charter
operators and lessors of aircraft with a
maximum takeoff weight of over 12,500
pounds.
(3) Certain identifying information for
non-traveling individuals that airport
operators or airport operator points of
contact seek to authorize to enter a
sterile area at a U.S. airport (e.g., to
patronize a restaurant, to escort a minor
or a passenger with disabilities, or for
another approved purpose).
(4) Registration information critical to
deployment of Secure Flight, such as
contact information, data format, or the
mechanism the covered aircraft
operators use to transmit SFPD and
other data.
(5) Lists of low-risk individuals who
are eligible for expedited screening
provided by Federal and non-federal
entities. In support of TSA PreCheck®,
TSA implemented expedited screening
of known or low-risk travelers. Federal
and non-federal entities may maintain
lists of eligible individuals pursuant to
agreements with DHS and TSA and
provide TSA with those lists of eligible
low-risk individuals to be used as part
of Secure Flight processes. Secure Flight
identifies individuals who should
receive expedited screening and
transmits the appropriate boarding pass
printing result to the aircraft operators.
TSA estimates an average of 875
respondents (231 current and new
covered aircraft operators + 552 Twelvefive and Private Charter aircraft
operators + 75 airports + 17 non-federal
entities) per year with an estimated
average annual reporting burden of
10,950 hours.

TSA’s mission includes the screening
of individuals, accessible property,
checked baggage, and cargo before
boarding or loading on an aircraft to
prevent or deter the carriage of any
explosive, incendiary, or deadly or
dangerous weapon on an aircraft. Under
49 CFR 1540.107, individuals are
required to submit to screening and
inspection before entering a sterile area
of an airport or boarding an aircraft. The
prohibition on carrying a weapon,
however, does not apply to LEOs
required to carry a firearm or other
weapons while in the performance of
law enforcement duties at the airport.
See 49 CFR 1540.111(b). In addition,
LEOs may fly armed if they meet the
requirements of 49 CFR 1544.219. This
section includes requirements for being
a Federal, municipal, county, or state
law enforcement officer; authorization
to carry the weapon; training for flying
armed; validation of the need for the
weapon to be accessible aboard the
aircraft; and notification requirements.
This section also discusses prohibitions
related to alcoholic beverage
consumption, and the appropriate
location of the weapon while aboard the
aircraft.
TSA has established a specialized
screening process for Federal, state,
county or municipal LEOs when they
are flying armed and need to go through
screening at the checkpoint. When this
situation occurs, LEOs are required to
complete TSA Form 413A, Checkpoint
Sign-In Log.
The information collected on TSA
Form 413A includes identifying
information for the LEOs; an affirmation
that they are authorized to fly armed on
official business and that they have an
operational need to have their weapon
accessible during the flight in
accordance with 49 CFR part 1544; and
identification of weapons they are
carrying. TSA is revising the
information collection by changing the
identification of weapons section of the
form, ‘‘Carrying:’’ to ‘‘Are you
carrying?’’ and adding the option
‘‘Unarmed LEO Escort.’’ In addition,
TSA is changing the question,
‘‘Completed Required LEO Flying
Armed Training?’’ to ‘‘Completed
Required TSA LEO Flying Armed
Training?’’ TSA is making the changes
for programmatic needs to capture
information of unarmed escorts 2 and to
differentiate the TSA course from local,
state and other LEO Flying Armed
Training courses.
2 Unarmed LEO escorts may include dignitaries,
prisoners, deserters, detainees or deportees to
foreign destinations.
