Title: Aviation Security Infrastructure Fees (ASIF) | |
Abstract: The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will take final action on the February 20, 2002, interim final rule (IFR) by completing an economic analysis and responding to comments received. The IFR established the Aviation Security Infrastructure Fee (ASIF) imposed on air carriers and foreign air carriers in air transportation, foreign air transportation, and intrastate air transportation to help defray TSA's costs of providing U.S. civil aviation security services. The Aviation and Transportation Security Act (ATSA) (Pub. L. 107-71; Nov. 19, 2001), codified at 49 U.S.C. 44940, requires TSA to impose a uniform fee, the "September 11th Security Fee," on certain aviation passengers at no more than $2.50 per enplanement originating in the United States, up to $5.00 per one-way trip and $10.00 per round trip. To the extent that TSA estimates that the September 11th Security Fee will not cover TSAs estimated annual costs for providing specified security services, ATSA authorizes TSA to impose a second fee, the ASIF, on carriers based on the costs they incurred for screening passengers and property in calendar year 2000. Beginning in fiscal year 2005, TSA may change the way the ASIF is apportioned among air carriers according to a carriers market share or other appropriate measure, in lieu of the carriers actual screening costs in calendar year 2000. See 49 U.S.C. 44940(2)(B)(iii). Reapportionment of the ASIF will not be the subject of this rulemaking and may be the subject of a separate proceeding. | |
