Though this new program does not fall under the control of the <br /> irport, as it is an extension of the FAA, Department of Transportation, and the <br /> ransportation Security Administration (the new agency that emerged from the <br /> viation Security Bill that is charged with the oversight of all transportation <br /> ecurity matters), I thought it might be good to work a little proactively in trying to <br /> silt you in your efforts to report on this change in the screening area. <br /> t this point, the Interim Federal Security Representative is on site, and his main <br /> esponsibility is the security screening area. He has requested that all media <br /> contact be directed to the Federal Aviation Administration Public Affairs number at <br /> 206-227-2004. I hope you will find assistance at the FAA in developing a news <br /> story. <br /> 1 <br /> <br />
