Selectee Lists". On August 26, TSI --visited the operations office and requested access to the TSA's No fly/Selectee comparison list, it was discovered at this time that 0P5 did not have access to the list and therefore was not conducting the daily checks as required, This issue was immediately reported to Airport Management. Upon investigation, it was noted that a request allegedly had been lorwarded to exempt from this procedure by the previous Alfpon Operations Manager. Further investigation reveals that details about the original request are unsubstantiated due to the departure of said previous Airport Operations Manager. Once indicated by TSl_that SWF was still responsible for completing the No flv/Selectee comparison list checks, the Airport immediately developed and implemented the following contingency plan: 0 HPN was contacted to assist swr. lt was agreed that if approved by TSA, would provide HPN a current copy ofall the badge holders at and HPN would perform the checks. .
