Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Comm. Act of 2007 requires the Transportation Security Admin. (TSA) to implement a system to physically screen 100% of cargo on passenger aircraft by Aug. 2010. To fulfill these requirements, the TSA is developing the Certified Cargo Screening Program (CCSP), which would allow the screening of cargo to occur prior to placement on an aircraft. This testimony addresses 4 challenges TSA may face in developing a system to screen 100% of cargo: (1) deploying effective technologies; (2) changing TSA air cargo screening exemptions; (3) allocating compliance inspection resources to oversee CCSP participants; and (4) securing cargo transported from a foreign nation to the U.S. Illus.

The SPP allows commercial airports to use private sector screeners through qualified private-screening contractors approved by TSA. In 2008, TSA issued a report comparing the cost and performance of screening services at SPP and non-SPP airports. This report addresses these questions: (1) To what extent did the design of study affect the usefulness of the study?; (2) Has TSA identified and eliminated any unnecessary overhead/supervisory redundancies at SPP airports between TSA and contractor personnel?; (3) What factors do airport operators cite as having contributed to airports' decisions about whether to participate in the SPP?

This book was released on 2019-01-09 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law Library presents the complete text of the FR - Air Cargo Screening (Federal Register Publication) (US Transportation Security Administration Regulation) (TSA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This rule amends two provisions of the Air Cargo Screening Interim Final Rule (IFR) issued on September 16, 2009, and responds to public comments on the IFR. The IFR codified a statutory requirement of the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007 that the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) establish a system to screen 100 percent of cargo transported on passenger aircraft not later than August 3, 2010. It established the Certified Cargo Screening Program, in which TSA certifies shippers, indirect air carriers, and other entities as Certified Cargo Screening Facilities (CCSFs) to screen cargo prior to transport on passenger aircraft. Under the IFR, each CCSF applicant had to successfully undergo an assessment of their facility by a TSA-approved validation firm or by TSA. In response to public comment, this Final Rule removes all validation firm and validator provisions, so that TSA will continue to conduct assessments of the applicant's facility to determine if certification is appropriate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report formally responds to Congress' request that GAO review the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) Screening Partnership Program (SPP). In accordance with the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, TSA created the SPP to allow commercial airports an opportunity to apply to TSA to use private sector screeners through qualified private-screening contractors approved by TSA. In February 2008, TSA issued a report on its study comparing the cost and performance of screening services at SPP and non-SPP airports. Our briefing addresses the following questions: (1) To what extent did the design of TSA's study of the cost and performance of passenger and checked baggage screening services at selected SPP and non-SPP airports affect the usefulness of the study? (2) To what extent has TSA taken actions to identify and eliminate any unnecessary overhead/supervisory redundancies at SPP airports between TSA and contractor personnel? (3) What factors do airport operators cite as having contributed to airports' decisions about whether to participate in the SPP? We are recommending that if TSA plans to rely on its comparison of costs and performance of SPP and non-SPP airports for future decision making, the agency update its study to address the limitations we identified, for example, by including various cost elements that were excluded and conducting statistical tests to determine the level of confidence in any observed differences in screening performance. TSA generally agreed with our findings and recommendation. --P. 1.
