Summary

What changed
TSA is extending OMB Control Number 1652-0067 for the TSA Canine Training Center Adoption Application (Form 433). This is a routine Paperwork Reduction Act renewal for an existing collection that gathers information from individuals seeking to adopt retired TSA explosive detection canines. The collection supports TSA's Congressionally-mandated canine program, which trains and deploys explosive detection canine teams for transportation security. Canines that attrit from the program and are not repurposed for government use may be placed for adoption through this program.
Affected parties include individuals and families interested in adopting retired TSA canines. No new compliance obligations are created— TSA is merely seeking renewal of an existing collection that has already been approved. The public may submit comments on the necessity, accuracy of burden estimates, utility, and clarity of the information collection, as well as suggestions for minimizing respondent burden.
