explosives (USATODAY.com)
09/17/2004 06:56 AMUSATODAY.com - Starting Monday, the government will intensify airport
screening, requiring passengers, for example, to remove coats. The
Transportation Security Administration announced changes Thursday,
motivated by recommendations of the Sept. 11 commission and the recent
explosions of two Russian airliners in flight.Taken together, new
procedures are intended to deter terrorists from sneaking explosives
onto planes under clothing or in carry-on bags.Awaiting air
travelers:More discretion. TSA screeners will be given greater
authority to refer passengers for extra scrutiny if clothing looks
bulky, misshapen or otherwise suspicious. Some passengers also will
receive expanded pat-downs when screeners consider it warranted.
Currently, they concentrate mostly on arms and legs. Now, they'll be
able to pat other areas if they look suspicious. TSA spokeswoman
Yolanda Clark would not elaborate, citing security.Explosive
detection. All travelers who receive secondary screening will have
belongings run through devices that can detect trace amounts of
explosives. Outer garments. Passengers must take off blazers, warm-up
jackets and other outer layers before walking through security
checkpoints. A woman wearing only a blazer as a top would not have to
take it off. But if it looked like it was concealing something, she
could receive additional screening. As before, female screeners will
be matched to female passengers and males to males, Clarke says.TSA
says it's too early to say how many more travelers will be detained.
"We don't anticipate any significant change in operations or wait
time," Clark says. The agency will track effects on passenger
flow.Critics say additional pat-downs could make some people,
especially young women, feel uncomfortable."There's more opportunity
for abuse," says James Plummer, a policy analyst at advocacy group
Consumer Alert. Frequent-flier Steve Lipson of Tampa calls the changes
"a farce" and doubts they'll improve security. "Anyone could get
easily around such ridiculous things if they wanted to," he says. Some
travelers disagree. "It's a no-brainer," says frequent-flier Lucas
Ferrara, a lawyer in Manhattan. "If given a choice, I'd opt for more
security rather than less."Discussions about upgrading TSA security
gained urgency last month after two Russian commercial airliners
crashed, killing 90 people on board. Explosives were found at both
crash sites. Authorities suspect Chechen women on each plane.The TSA
has been taking other steps, most recently installing document
scanners at Reagan Washington National that examine drivers licenses
and boarding passes for traces of explosives.
