Abstract: The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Canine
Program is a Congressionally-mandated program that operates as a
partnership among TSA; aviation, mass transit, and maritime sectors;
and State and local law enforcement. TSA operates the Canine Training
Center (CTC) Adoption Program in accordance with 41 CFR 102-36.35(d)
(donation of surplus property) and 102-36.365 (donation of canines used
for performance of law enforcement duties). The TSA Canine Program
developed the TSA CTC to train and deploy explosive detection canine
teams to Federal, State, and local agencies in support of daily

CTC Adoption Program to find suitable individuals or families to adopt
and provide good homes to canines who do not graduate from the training
program. Individuals seeking to adopt a TSA canine must complete the
TSA CTC Adoption Application. This collection of information allows the
TSA CTC to collect personal information from the applicants to
determine their suitability to adopt a TSA canine.
Number of Respondents: 300.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: An estimated 50 hours annually.
Dated: March 16, 2020.
