Overview

o

The attacks of September 11,
2001, led to the largest and most
complex reorganization of the
federal government since the
department of defense was
created over 60 years ago
The post 9/11 re-organization
included the establishment of the
U.S. Department of Homeland
Security (DHS)
On March 1, 2003 DHS took
over operational control of
nearly 180,000 employees from
incoming agencies and offices,
including some 60,000 TSA
employees from the Department
of Transportation

What we do…
Layers of Security
We have layers of security to enhance the security of the
traveling public and the Nation's transportation system.
Each one of these layers alone is a deterrent, capable of
deterring criminal acts.
In combination their security value is multiplied, creating
a much stronger, formidable system.

100% Screening Requirement
Background
 President Bush approved Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission
Act of 2007 on August 3, 2007.
 The legislation mandates 100% screening by
August 2010 and requires TSA to:
– Establish a system to screen 100% of cargo
transported on passenger aircraft.
– Provide a level of security commensurate to that
of passenger baggage.
– Meet inspection benchmarks.

100% Screening Requirement
Impacts
 All cargo must be screened at the piece level by TSA-approved methods prior to
being loaded on a passenger aircraft.
 Screening capacity at a single point in the supply chain is not sufficient enough to
accomplish this requirement.
 Significant carrier delays, cargo backlogs, and transit time increases are expected.
~15 million pounds
moves on PAX daily.
Cargo must be broken down
to piece level and screened
by piece.

Piece Level Cargo
 Piece level cargo is the individual item within a
shipment. The number of pieces is determined by
the number of pieces identified by the shipper-level
documentation.
 By February 3, 2009, all cargo must be broken
down and 50% of the individual pieces must be
screened prior to being loaded on a passenger
aircraft.
 By August 3, 2010, cargo must be 100% screened
at the piece level.

Certified Cargo Screening Program Overview
The Certified Cargo Screening Program (CCSP) is a facility based program.
CCSP was developed to:
 Allow screening of cargo early in the air cargo supply chain by a trusted, vetted, and audited
facility.
 Establish the integrity of a shipment through enhanced physical and personnel security
standards at Certified Cargo Screening Facilities (CCSFs).
 Maintain the integrity of a shipment throughout the supply chain by utilizing stringent chain of
custody methods.
Participation in CCSP is voluntary, but once in, CCSFs must:
 Adhere to increased TSA-directed security standards.
 Share responsibility for supply chain security.
 Employ chain of custody.
 Permit onsite validations.
 Submit a Facility Security Plan (FSP).
 Be subject to TSI-C inspections.

What is a regulated entity?
 A regulated entity is an entity that TSA has imposed mandatory requirements on
through an order, regulation, or other means to impose binding and enforceable
requirements. Regulations are first published in the Federal Register and codified
in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).

 Certified Cargo Screening Facilities (CCSFs) will need to be regulated:
– To count CCSF cargo as screened.
– To enable compliance to be enforced.
Newly Regulated Entities: CCSFs
Shippers, Manufacturers,
Warehouses, Third Party
Logistic Companies

Who can become a Certified Cargo Screening Facility?
Facilities screening under the CCSP will be known as Certified Cargo Screening Facilities
(CCSFs).
 Facilities currently applying to become Certified Cargo Screening Facilities:
Shipping
Facilities
Freight Forwarding
Facilities
Third Party
Logistics Providers
Manufacturing
Facilities
Warehouses
Distribution Centers
 Independent facilities may emerge to screen cargo for other entities.
 Any entity with a desire to screen cargo must have a secure facility.
 CCSFs must be no more than one node back from a currently regulated entity (freight
forwarder/air carrier).
 Facilities that are not currently regulated by TSA will become regulated under the program.

CCSP Program Standards
 During Phase One:
– Non-regulated entities will operate under a regulatory Order issued by TSA.
– Freight forwarders and air carriers will operate under Alternate Procedures (APs) to their
standard security programs (SSPs).
 At full rollout, all CCSFs will operate under the Certified Cargo Screening Standard
Security Program (CCSSSP).

CCSP Benefits
 The benefits of participating in the Certified Cargo Screening Program may outweigh costs
carried by the facility in meeting program guidelines.
CCSF Benefits
CCSF Costs
CCSP:
 Decreased log jams (carrier delays) and
expedited supply chain flow.
 Implement facility and chain of custody
standards*.
 Ability to build bulk configurations.
 Facility audits.
 Ability to continue to ship certain cargo
types without potential invasive
screening later on in the chain.
*Facility Standards include physical access controls,
personnel, procedural, physical, and information
technology security.
