New members of Aviation Security Advisory Committee announced by TSA

airplane
August 21, 2020

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced the new members of the Aviation Security Advisory Committee (ASAC), which includes the appointment of four new members, the reappointment of 15 members, and the full list of other committee members serving their term.

ASAC is a congressionally-mandated committee of aviation industry stakeholders and provides a formalized mechanism for consultation with key industry stakeholders on aviation security matters, including the development, refinement, and implementation of policies, programs, rulemaking, and security directives pertaining to aviation security.

Comprised of 33 members who broadly represent transportation organizations and interests, the ASAC is a permanent committee authorized by the Aviation Security Stakeholder Participation Act of 2014. The committee meets quarterly and holds one public meeting each year. Congress established the ASAC in 1989, following the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988. Initially, the advisory committee supported the Federal Aviation Administration. On November 19, 2001, Congress established the TSA and realigned the ASAC to advise the TSA Administrator.

The standard appointment term is two years. However, members serve on staggered terms, which means that approximately one-half of the committee members’ terms expire in alternating years to ensure continuity, says TSA.

Reappointments are marked with one asterisk (*). New appointments are marked with a double asterisk (**). A direct appointment made in December 2019 is marked with a triple asterisk (***). The remaining members continue serving their two-year term without change.

The 33 members below represent 19 mandated membership categories on the committee:
