Overview
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) issues and administers Transportation Security Regulations (TSRs), which are codified in Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Chapter XII, parts 1500 through 1699.
Docket System and Facility: TSA maintains the official regulatory docket in electronic form through the Federal Docket Management System (FDMS), a government-wide, electronic docket management system, found at Regulations.gov. The U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Docket Management Facility processes TSA’s dockets and provide a physical facility and assistance to the public. Read More.
