Good morning,

I am James Smith, the Customer Support Manager for TSA in Sacramento. Whereas I do not believe there are any public ordinances against taking photos in public areas, however, do to general security concerns it would be wise to contact the public relations department at Sacramento International Airport at 916 874-0601. If you have questions concerning TSA please contact me at the number provided below.

Thank you,

J. Robert Smith, Jr.

Thank you, Mr. Smith, for confirming that TSA does not bar photography of public areas of Sacramento Metropolitan Airport. Their tends to be confusion over whether it is allowed, particularly at security checkpoints.

Can you provide an e-mail address (or alternatively, a postal mail address) for the public relations department at Sacramento International Airport? Information tends to get lost when people try to talk on the phone and take notes at the same time, and an e-mail or letter would allow the P.R. department to respond to my question at their convenience.
