Streamlining Transportation Security Screening: Faster Applications, Lower Fees
This new act aims to simplify and speed up the process of obtaining and renewing security credentials for transportation workers, such as TWIC cards and Hazardous Materials Endorsement (HAZMAT). Citizens will be able to complete formalities faster, at one location, and for a lower fee, reducing bureaucracy and costs. The act also mandates an audit to identify and eliminate unnecessary expenses and improve the efficiency of security programs.
