According to the speech, as it is under consideration, ISI teams of CBP officers would work with the National Targeting Center, the foreign authorities, the air carriers, and other U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies to: (1) utilize advance manifest information to identify potentially high-risk passengers; (2) work with the airlines and the host-nation authorities to question the high-risk passengers and examine their travel documents; and (3) make a determination whether the high-risk passengers are admissible into the U.S. prior to boarding. Commissioner Bonner stated that he would propose that ISI be piloted at 5 to 10 foreign hub airports and that ISI be evaluated and then expanded.
