The objective was to determine the extent to which TSA has implemented requirements of the 9/11 Act and TSA Mod Act to develop strategies, programs, regulations, reports, and other initiatives to strengthen transportation security. Although TSA implemented 167 of the 251 (67 percent) requirements in both Acts, 55 of the 167 (33 percent) were not completed by the Acts’ established deadlines, and TSA did not complete the remaining 84 requirements. TSA was unable to complete 33 of these requirements because the actions relied on external stakeholders acting first or depended on conditions outside of TSA's control.
