New initiatives to expand the role of TSA personnel beyond screening operations, as well as initiatives to improve screening efficiency and effectiveness through the deployment of new technologies, will likely require additional investment. In addition to annual appropriations of $250 million in FY2008 and FY2009, a portion of the $1 billion identified for aviation security in the stimulus measure (P.L. 111-5) has been designated for acquiring and deploying technologies to screen passengers for explosives. However, policymakers and aviation security planners have not yet agreed upon a well-defined strategy and plan for evolving airline passenger and baggage screening functions to incorporate new technologies, capabilities, and procedures to more effectively and efficiently detect potential threats to aviation security. Ongoing challenges to maintaining and improving upon screening functions include: addressing the potential impacts of projected airline passenger traffic growth on screening operations; optimizing screening efficiency and minimizing passenger wait times; addressing potential airport space constraints for screening checkpoints and equipment; improving the capability to detect explosives at passenger checkpoints; optimizing inline explosives detection systems for checked baggage; developing strategic plans for addressing screening technology and human factors needs; and defining the funding requirements to implement these strategic plans.

CBP also is describing the terms and conditions for such use. NEXUS is a program jointly administered by the United States and Canada that allows certain pre-approved, low-risk travelers expedited processing for travel be- tween the United States and Canada. The SENTRI trusted traveler program allows certain pre-approved, low-risk travelers expedited entry at specified land border ports along the U.S.-Mexico border. EFFECTIVE DATE: Eligible NEXUS or SENTRI participants may begin to utilize the Global Entry kiosks immediately upon notification of eligibility from CBP. Comments concerning this notice and all aspects of the announced Global Entry pilot may be submitted throughout the duration of the pilot.

  • US Aviation Infrastructure Policy at a Crossroads

U.S. Aviation Infrastructure Policy at a Crossroads In the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks, travelers’ fears of flying have given way to their anxieties about delays they may encounter when going through airport security, leaving the departure gate and taking off, flying to their destination, and landing and disembarking from the aircraft. In 2005 in- flight delays and earlier airport arrivals for security screening were estimated to cost passengers and airlines in the United States $40 billion annually.1 Of course, delays are hardly a new concern with airline travel. As shown in figure 2-1, travel times have been increasing for the past three decades. Fore- casts by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) call for more than 1 bil- lion passenger enplanements by 2016, indicating that landside and airborne delays and their associated costs will become significantly worse unless the nation’s aviation infrastructure—airports and air traffic control—improves the efficiency with which it helps passengers get to their destinations.2 Currently responsibility for basic aeronautical services in the United States—including terminals, gates, taxiing areas, and runways—lies with local 1. Total delay costs for 2005 are obtained as follows. The U.S. Department of Transporta- tion (2006) estimated that aircraft delays cost passengers $9.4 billion. This figure is likely to be an underestimate because the delays to passengers are inferred from delays to aircraft. Pas- senger delays are likely to be greater than aircraft delays because delays to passengers may cause them to miss connections.
