On December 31, 2001, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), issued an Interim Final Rule (IFR) imposing the Passenger Civil Aviation Security Service Fee (commonly referred to as the "September 11th Security Fee") on certain civil aviation passengers (PDF-104KB | HTML-37KB). On March 28, 2002, TSA amended the reporting requirements of the IFR (PDF-41KB | HTML-18KB). These documents are available in the Federal Register or on the Internet at Regulations.Gov, searchable by key word TSA-2001-11120. Section 1510.17 of the IFR, as amended, requires certain selling carriers (as explained in the IFR) to provide the following information to the TSA on a quarterly basis:

  • Name of the reporting carrier

  • Total fee collected from passengers (for each month in the quarter)
