DHS' and TSA's Compliance with Public Law 114-278, Transportation Security Card Program Assessment

We determined that although DHS commissioned its comprehensive program assessment, it did so more than one year later than the timeline mandated in the public law. The public law also required TSA to take six actions to improve the process for vetting individuals with access to secure areas of vessels and maritime facilities. We determined that TSA partially complied with two and complied with four of the six required actions stipulated in the public law. The report contains no recommendations.
