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 is available 
at http://www.reginfo.gov. 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

    Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 44917, TSA has authority to provide for 
deployment of Federal Air Marshals (FAMs) on passenger flights and 
provide for appropriate training, equipping, and supervision of FAMs. 
In furtherance of this authority, TSA policy requires that applicants 
for the Office of Law Enforcement/Federal Air Marshal Service positions 
meet certain medical and mental health standards.
    In order to evaluate whether applicants meet TSA standards, 
applicants must undergo a psychological evaluation determining that 
they do not have an established medical history or clinical diagnosis 
of psychosis, neurosis, or any other personality or mental disorder 
that clearly demonstrates a potential hazard to the performance of FAM 
duties or the safety of self or others. As part of the psychological 
evaluation, applicants are required to complete a certification form 
regarding their mental health history and provide an explanation for 
anything they cannot certify. Applicants will be asked whether they can 
certify various statements including that they have never been removed 
from work for medical or psychological reasons.
    Upon completion, applicants submit the certification form directly 
to the FAMS' Medical Programs Section (FAMS MPS) for initial screening 
via fax, electronic upload via scanning document, mail, or in person. 
The FAMS MPS screens all certification forms received. Any explanations 
for uncertified items received will generally require further review 
and follow-up by a personal psychologist or psychiatrist. This 
certification is carefully geared to capitalize on other elements of 
the assessment process, such as personal interviews, physical task 
assessment, background investigation, as well as the other components 
of the medical

examination and assessment. TSA estimates that there will be 600 
respondents annually.
    It will take each respondent approximately one hour to complete the 
certification form for a total annual hour burden of 600 hours.

    Dated: October 19, 2015.

TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology.
