The ICR describes the nature of the information collection and its expected burden. This collection requires individuals to successfully complete a security threat assessment in order to operate an aircraft to or from one of the three Maryland airports that are located within the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Area Flight Restricted Zone (Maryland Three Airports), or to serve as an airport security coordinator at one of these three airports. DATES: Send your comments by March 5, 2012. ADDRESSES: Comments may be emailed to *TSAPRA@dhs.gov* or delivered to the TSA PRA Officer, Office of Information Technology (OIT), TSA-11, Transportation Security Administration, 601 South 12th Street, Arlington, VA 20598-6011. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joanna Johnson at the above address, or by telephone
(571)227-3651. 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 *OMB Control Number 1652-0029; Maryland Three Airports: Enhanced Security Procedures at Certain Airports in the Washington, DC Area, 49 CFR part 1562.* Codified under 49 CFR part 1562, TSA has responsibility for ground security requirements and security procedures at three Maryland airports that are located within the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Area Flight Restricted Zone (Maryland Three Airports), and for individuals operating aircraft to or from these three airports. The Maryland Three Airports are College Park Airport (CGS), Potomac Airfield (VKX), and Washington Executive/Hyde Field (W32). The information collected is used to determine compliance with 49 CFR part 1562. Part 1562 allows an individual who is approved by TSA to operate an aircraft to or from one of the Maryland Three Airports or to serve as an airport security coordinator in one of these three airports. In order to be approved, an individual is required to successfully complete a security threat assessment. As part of this threat assessment, an individual (pilot or airport security coordinator) is required to undergo a criminal history records check and a check of Government terrorist watch lists and other databases to determine whether the individual poses, or is suspected of posing, a threat to transportation or national security. An individual will not receive TSA's approval under this analysis if TSA determines or suspects the individual of being a threat to national or transportation security. Prospective pilots must be fingerprinted at the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport's
(DCA)badging office with the airport security coordinator, as well as provide the following information to TSA as part of the application process: full name, Social Security number, current Airmen Certificate and medical certificate, date of birth, home address, home and work phone numbers, email address, emergency contact number, aircraft make and model, and FAA aircraft registration number. TSA receives approximately 312 applications annually, and estimates respondents spend approximately 180 minutes to submit the information to TSA, which is a total annual burden of 56,160 hours. Issued in Arlington, Virginia, on December 29, 2011. Joanna Johnson, TSA Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Office of Information Technology. [FR Doc. 2011-33792 Filed 1-4-12; 8:45 am]
