TSA solicits feedback on plans for frequent flier program
By Chris Strohm

The Transportation Security Administration is seeking industry and
public input on its plan to begin an airline passenger verification
program at airports across the country.

NB that there was actually a session *yesterday*, apparently, in DC where TSA solicited feedback; the posting of notice of the meeting to FedBizOpps was made a scant day before the deadline to register for it. It would be interesting to hear if any of the privacy issues groups attended, or if attendance was, through happenstance or design, limited to vendors... certainly, agitators could take them up on their suggestion that a second industry day be held...:

8.     Public Meeting Notice
A meeting will be held on December 20, 2005 from 10:30 to 12:30 ET at TSA Headquarters, 601 South 12th Street, Arlington, VA. The meeting is for fact-finding and is provided as a courtesy to all interested parties to discuss the RFI submittal. All available details have been provided in this RFI and on the TSA Web site. TSA will make a reasonable effort to respond to all written questions and comments. Questions and comments submitted after January 06, 2005 may not receive a direct response from TSA; however, all responses will be posted to the Federal Business Opportunities website. If the demand presents itself, TSA may conduct a second industry day after January 03, 2006.

The meeting facility is limited to 145 people; therefore, TSA will also provide a conference call bridge for your participation. RSVP your preference to attend the meeting in person or via conference call, by email, to Freda Powell, no later than 12:00 p.m. ET on December 16, 2005. Include with the RSVP the names of the individuals planning to attend this meeting. TSA will confirm your reservation in a return email by COB December 16, 2005. TSA reserves the right to limit number of attendees per entity. Attendees should plan to arrive at the TSA Visitors Center at least 30 minutes prior to the meeting.
