Protection, Regulations and Rulings, Office of International Trade, 90 
K Street NE., 10th Floor, Washington, DC 20229-1177, at 202-325-0265.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
previously published in the Federal Register (80 FR 3973) on January 
26, 2015, allowing for a 60-day comment period. This notice allows for 
an additional 30 days for public comments. This process is conducted in 
accordance with 5 CFR 1320.10. CBP invites the general public and other 
Federal agencies to comment on proposed and/or continuing information 
collections pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 
104-13; 44 U.S.C. 3507). The comments should address: (a) Whether the 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimates of 
the burden of the collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) 
ways to minimize the burden, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or the use of other forms of information technology; and (e) 
the annual costs to respondents or record keepers from the collection 
of information (total capital/startup costs and operations and 
maintenance costs). The comments that are submitted will be summarized 
and included in the CBP request for OMB approval. All comments will 
become a matter of public record. In this document, CBP is soliciting 
comments concerning the following information collection:
    Title: Entry/Immediate Delivery Application and ACE Cargo Release.
    OMB Number: 1651-0024.
    Form Number: 3461 and 3461 ALT.
    Abstract: All items imported into the United States are subject to 
examination before entering the commerce of the United States. There 
are two procedures available to effect the release of imported 
merchandise, including ``entry'' pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1484, and 
``immediate delivery'' pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1448(b). Under both 
procedures, CBP Forms 3461, Entry/Immediate Delivery, and 3461 ALT are 
the source documents in the packages presented to Customs and Border 
Protection (CBP). The information collected on CBP Forms 3461 and 3461 
ALT allow CBP officers to verify that the information regarding the 
consignee and shipment is correct and that a bond is on file with CBP. 
CBP also uses these forms to close out the manifest and to establish 
the obligation to pay estimated duties in the time period prescribed by 
law or regulation. CBP Form 3461 is also a delivery authorization 
document and is given to the importing carrier to authorize the release 
of the merchandise.
    CBP Forms 3461 and 3461 ALT are provided for by 19 CFR parts 141 
and 142. These forms and instructions for Form 3461 are accessible at: 
http://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms.
    ACE Cargo Release is a program for ACE entry summary filers in 
which importers or brokers may file Simplified Entry data in lieu of 
filing the CBP Form 3461. This data consists of 12 required elements: 
Importer of record; buyer name and address; buyer employer 
identification number (consignee number), seller name and address; 
manufacturer/supplier name and address; Harmonized Tariff Schedule 10-
digit number; country of origin; bill of lading; house air waybill 
number; bill of lading issuer code; entry number; entry type; and 
estimated shipment value. Three optional data elements are the 
container stuffing location; consolidator name and address, and ship to 
party name and address. The data collected under the ACE Cargo Release 
program is intended to reduce transaction costs, expedite cargo 
release, and enhance cargo security. ACE Cargo Release filing minimizes 
the redundancy of data submitted by the filer to CBP through receiving 
carrier data from the carrier. This design allows the participants to 
file earlier in the transportation flow. Guidance on using ACE Cargo 
Release may be found at http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features.

[[Page 16692]]

    Current Actions: This submission is being made to extend the 
expiration date with a change in the burden hours resulting from the 
transition from Form 3461 to ACE Cargo Release. There are no changes to 
the information collected.
    Type of Review: Extension (with change).
    Affected Public: Businesses.
