Excerpt
Introduction: On September 30, 2004, the Aviation Security Advisory Committee (ASAC) voted unanimously to create an industry Working Group to advise TSA on the establishment of a Freight Assessment System (FAS) designed to identify air cargo posing an elevated security risk. This concept of identifying suspect freight (and screening/inspecting that freight found to possess an elevated risk) is a major element of TSA?s Air Cargo Strategic Plan and has been supported by a broad spectrum of the aviation industry. That support continues, and the industry pledges both resources and personnel to ensure the success of this effort.
