Exit Lanes 2022

Exit Lane Monitoring

Despite clear direction from Congress and permanent provisions in federal law requiring TSA to staff exit lanes, the President's FY23 budget request proposes to shift these responsibilities to airport operators.  Please fill out this survey to provide us additional information as we work with Congress to continue to require TSA to staff exit lanes and provide the necessary resources to do so, as it has done every year since 2013. Rough estimates are welcome.  Based on responses, we may reach out to you for individual follow-up with Congressional offices.
1.Please provide your contact information.
2.Does TSA monitor exit lanes at your airport facility?
3.If yes, how much would it cost per year (rough estimate) to assume this responsibility from TSA?
4.Do you have exit lane monitoring technology in place at your airport facility?
5.If yes, how much did it cost to procure and install the exit lane technology?
6.How much does it cost to maintain the exit lane technology per year?
7.Does local TSA require staffing in addition to the exit lane technology at your airport facility?
8.Please share any challenges or concerns regarding exit lane monitoring at your airport.
