Department of Homeland Security/TSA, and sent via electronic mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: TSA published a Federal Register notice, 
with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments, of the following 
collection of information on December 13, 2017, 82 FR 58650.

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.
    Consistent with the requirements of Executive Order (E.O.) 13771, 
Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory Costs, and E.O. 13777, 
Enforcing the Regulatory Reform Agenda, TSA is also requesting comments 
on the extent to which this request for information could be modified 
to reduce the burden on respondents.

Information Collection Requirement

    Title: Screening Partnership Program Application.
    Type of Request: Renewal.
    OMB Control Number: 1652-0064.
    Form(s): TSA Form 424 Screening Partnership Program Application.
    Affected Public: Airport Operators.
    Abstract: Under 49 U.S.C. 44920, an airport may submit an 
application to TSA to have the screening of passengers and property 
required by 49 U.S.C. 44901 conducted by non-Federal personnel. TSA 
must approve the application if the approval ``would not compromise 
security or detrimentally affect the cost-efficiency or the 
effectiveness of the screening of passengers or property at the 
airport.'' TSA implements this requirement through the Screening 
Partnership Program (SPP). Participation in the SPP is initiated with 
the application covered by this information collection.
    Number of Respondents: 2.
    Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An estimated 0.50 hours annually.
