Full Description

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 44903(c) and 49 C.F.R. Part 1542, each Airport operator is required to establish an air transportation security program that provides a law enforcement presence and capability at the airport that is adequate to ensure the safety of passengers. This cooperative agreement is part of the cooperative effort of TSA through the FSD and the airport operator to deploy sufficient law enforcement officers to meet their dual responsibility to ensure the safety of passengers and to counter risks to transportation security by partially funding the increased costs of Law Enforcement Officer presence in support of passenger screening activity.
