For Category III airports, what is the required time for law enforcement officers to respond to a criminal situation at the screening point?

  1. May not exceed 5 minutes

  2. May not exceed 1 minute

  3. 10 minutes

  4. 15 minutes

The correct answer is: 15 minutes

Category III airports are the smallest and least busy airports. Therefore, it is reasonable to require a longer time for law enforcement officers to respond in comparison to larger airports. Option A and B are too short of a timeframe for officers to arrive and effectively respond to a potential criminal situation. Option C is a reasonable amount of time, but it does not take into account the size and activity level of Category III airports. Therefore, option D is the best answer as it allows for an appropriate response time for law enforcement officers at these particular airports.
