The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) issued a notice and request for comments regarding their request to the OMB to renew an existing information collection authority for the Pipeline Corporate Security Review (PCSR) Program. The purpose of the PCSR program is to develop first-hand knowledge of a pipeline operator’s corporate security policies and procedures, establish and maintain working relationships with key pipeline security personnel, and identify best practices observed at individual facilities to help enhance and improve the security of the pipeline industry. The data collection will assess the current security practices in the pipeline industry which includes site visits and interviews, and is part of the larger domain for awareness, prevention and protection program supporting the TSA’s and Department of Homeland Security’s missions.

Comments are due by April 29, 2013 and can be TSAPRA@dhs.gov For a copy of this TSA notice and request for comments, contact Jessica Roger
