[Federal Register Volume 80, Number 153 (Monday, August 10, 2015)] [Notices] [Pages 47938-47942] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2015-19532] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY U.S. Customs and Border Protection Modification of National Customs Automation Program (NCAP) Test Concerning the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Partner Government Agency (PGA) Message Set Regarding Types of Transportation Modes and Certain Data Required by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) AGENCY: U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Department of Homeland Security. ACTION: General notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document announces U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP's) plan to modify the National Customs Automation Program (NCAP) test concerning the transmission of electronic filings through the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), known as the Partner Government Agency (PGA) Message Set test. These modifications extend the current PGA Message Set to cover entries arriving by ocean, truck, rail, and air modes of transportation at CBP-designated ports and expands the use of the ACE PGA Message Set for the transmission of U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) import data for entries of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment items. CBP invites public comment concerning the test program. DATES: The modified PGA Message Set test will commence no earlier than August 10, 2015, and will continue until concluded by way of announcement in the Federal Register. Comments will be accepted through the duration of the test. ADDRESSES: Comments concerning this notice and any aspect of this test may be submitted at any time during the test via email to Josephine Baiamonte, ACE Business Office (ABO), Office of International Trade at [email protected]. In the subject line of your email, please indicate, ``Comment on NHTSA PGA Message Set Test FRN''. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For NHTSA-related PGA Message Set test questions, interested parties should send an email message to Clint Lindsay at [email protected] or Coleman Sachs at [email protected], and they should send a copy of that message to their assigned CBP client representative. For technical questions related to the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) or Automated Broker Interface (ABI) transmissions, contact your assigned client representative. Interested parties without an assigned client representative should direct their questions to Steven Zaccaro at [email protected] with the subject heading ``PGA Message Set NHTSA Test FRN-Request to Participate''. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background This test notice, and the Customs related electronic functions it describes, are part of the National Customs Automation Program (NCAP). NCAP was established in Subtitle B of Title VI--Customs Modernization, in the North American Free Trade Agreement Implementation Act (Pub. L. 103-182, 107 Stat. 2057, December 8, 1993) (Customs Modernization Act). See 19 U.S.C. 1411. Through NCAP, the initial focus of customs modernization was on trade compliance and the development of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), the planned successor to the legacy Customs Automated Commercial System (ACS). ACE is an automated and electronic system for commercial trade processing. ACE will streamline business processes, facilitate growth in trade, ensure cargo security, and foster participation in global commerce, while ensuring compliance with U.S. laws and regulations and reducing costs for CBP and all its communities of interest. The ability to meet these objectives depends upon successfully modernizing CBP's business functions and the information technology that supports those functions. CBP's modernization efforts are accomplished through phased releases of ACE component functionality, designed to introduce a new capability or to replace a specific legacy ACS function. Each release will begin with a test, and will end with mandatory compliance with the new ACE feature, thus retiring the legacy ACS function. Each release builds on previous releases, and sets the foundation for subsequent releases. On December 13, 2013, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) published in the Federal Register a notice announcing a National Customs [[Page 47939]] Automation Program (NCAP) test called the Partner Government Agency (PGA) Message Set test. See 78 FR 75931. This test is in furtherance of key CBP International Trade Data System (ITDS) initiatives, as provided in the Security and Accountability For Every Port Act of 2006 (``SAFE Port Act''), Pub. L. 109-347, 120 Stat. 1884 (19 U.S.C. 1411(d)), to achieve the vision of ACE as the ``single window'' for the Government and trade community. ACE will automate and enhance the interaction between international trade partners, CBP, and PGAs by facilitating electronic collection, processing, sharing, and review of trade data and documents required by Federal agencies during the cargo import and export process. The use of ACE to process trade data will significantly increase efficiency and reduce costs compared to the traditional manual method of processing of paper forms. The PGA Message Set is the data required to satisfy the PGAs' reporting requirements. ACE will enable the trade community to submit trade-related data, required by the PGAs, only once to CBP, thus improving communications between agencies and filers, and shortening entry processing time. This data must be submitted at any time prior to the arrival of the merchandise on the conveyance transporting the cargo to the United States as part of the ACE Cargo Release process. The data will be validated and made available to the relevant PGAs involved in import, export, and transportation-related decision making. The data will satisfy the filer's obligation to make entry and will allow for earlier release decisions and more certainty for the importer in determining the logistics of cargo delivery. Also, by virtue of being electronic, the PGA Message Set will eliminate the necessity for the submission and subsequent manual processing of paper documents. The December 2013 Federal Register notice announced that ACE would be accepting certain PGA data elements for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) for type ``01'' (consumption) and type ``11'' (informal) commercial entries filed at specified ports. The December 2013 Federal Register notice also provides additional background on the NCAP and the International Trade Data System (ITDS). On February 4, 2015, CBP published the announcement that it had broadened the PGA Message Set test to accept additional PGA data elements for the EPA, for type ``01'' (consumption) and type ``11'' (informal) commercial entries filed at specified ports. See 80 FR 6098. For the convenience of the public, a chronological listing of Federal Register publications detailing ACE test developments is set forth below in Section XIV, entitled, ``Development of ACE Prototypes''. The procedures and criteria related to participation in the previous ACE notices remain in effect unless otherwise explicitly changed by this or subsequent notices published in the Federal Register. I. Authorization for the Test The Customs Modernization Act provides the Commissioner of CBP with authority to conduct limited test programs or procedures designed to evaluate planned components of the NCAP. This test is authorized pursuant to section 101.9(b) of title 19 of the Code of Federal Regulations (19 CFR 101.9(b)) which provides for the testing of NCAP programs or procedures. See Treasury Decision (T.D.) 95-21. II. Partner Government Agency Message Set for Four Transportation Modes This document announces CBP's plan to expand the PGA Message Set to allow submission of certain data, which PGAs require, for informal and formal consumption entries arriving by air, ocean, rail, or truck mode of transportation. At this time, a limited number of ports will be accepting PGA Message Set data. A list of those ports is provided on the following Web site: http://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/list-aceitds-pga-message-set-pilot-ports. Those ports will accept PGA Message Set data for entries arriving by air, ocean, rail, or truck mode of transportation. CBP may expand this test to include additional ports in the future. CBP may also expand the commodities that are within the scope of the test, as indicated by the Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) codes, on the following Web site: http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/catair#field-content-tab-group-tab-4. Test participants should monitor the Web site for updates to the list of ports accepting PGA Message Set data and the list of HTS codes covered by the test. III. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) In addition, this document announces CBP's plan to expand the PGA Message Set test to include electronic filings of the NHTSA PGA Message Set for the importation of motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment items. NHTSA is responsible for implementing and enforcing the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966, as amended, codified at 49 U.S.C. Chapter 301 (49 U.S.C. 30101 et seq.). Under its authority, NHTSA issues and enforces the Federal motor vehicle safety standards (``FMVSS''), which apply to motor vehicles and certain items of motor vehicle equipment. Section 30112(a)(1) of Title 49 U.S.C. contains a general prohibition on, among other things, importing into the United States motor vehicles or motor vehicle equipment items that do not comply with all applicable FMVSS and that are not covered by a certification issued under 49 U.S.C. 30115. Under 49 CFR 591.5, any person offering a motor vehicle or item of motor vehicle equipment for importation into the United States must file a declaration. This declaration is known as the DOT HS-7 Declaration Form. Under its parallel regulation at 19 CFR 12.80, CBP requires that a declaration be filed in duplicate for motor vehicles or motor vehicle equipment items. In practice, importers or brokers file the HS-7 Declaration Form and supporting documents for these products. The DOT HS-7 Declaration Form, the form's supporting documents, and NHTSA's regulations require the identification of parties associated with the entry of the products that are presented for importation, as well as information on the identity of imported motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment items. Importers of motor vehicles or motor vehicle equipment items are required to file a HS-7 Declaration Form and supporting documents with CBP at the time of making entry. Alternatively, importers may file the HS-7 Declaration Form electronically via the Automated Broker Interface (ABI) and present the HS-7 Declaration Form's supporting documents to CBP at the time of entry. NHTSA staff may review the importer's entry information and make a determination as to whether the shipment should be released, detained, or refused. This may involve manual checking of key information against NHTSA databases. The current process is costly and inefficient because it relies on paper documents, and manual data validation and error correction. The review process can take several days during which more costs may be incurred for storage. CBP is expanding the use of the PGA Message set to include the electronic filing of NHTSA-regulated motor vehicles and motor vehicle equipment items for type ``01'' (consumption) and type ``11'' (informal) commercial entries [[Page 47940]] filed at specified ports. The data elements to be filed electronically through the PGA message set are those found in the current paper form (DOT HS-7 Declaration Form), collectively the ``NHTSA Vehicle/Equipment Information Collection.'' Supporting documents such as the DOT conformance bond form (DOT HS-474) must be submitted electronically at any time prior to the arrival of the merchandise on the conveyance transporting the cargo to the United States via a CBP-approved Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). In a notice published in the Federal Register (79 FR 36083) on June 25, 2014, CBP set forth the rules for filing submissions via DIS and a list of CBP and PGA forms that may be submitted via DIS. Technical information regarding the use of DIS is available at the following Web site: http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features. The technical requirements for submitting the NHTSA data elements are set forth in the supplemental Customs and Trade Automated Interface Requirements (CATAIR) guidelines for NHTSA. These technical specifications, including the CATAIR chapters and applicable Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) codes, can be found at the following link: http://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/national-highway-traffic-safety-administration-nhtsa-pga-message-set-manual. The NHTSA-required entry data will be filed electronically once through the single window for use by both NHTSA and CBP, for pre- arrival screening, using the PGA Message Set. This will eliminate separate document filings for participating importers and as a result, reduce the overall paperwork burden on the importer and the port associated with these NHTSA-regulated shipments. It will also significantly reduce the initial processing and review time for motor vehicle and motor vehicle equipment item entries, provide consistency of these reviews, and eliminate the costs of filing paper documents. The electronic filing will also allow automated checks of certain required information facilitating pre-arrival admissibility verifications, thereby focusing CBP and NHTSA resources on shipments of interest. At this time, the test will include entries originating in the ocean, truck, rail, and air environment. Upon acceptance into this test, participants will be allowed to transmit the NHTSA data elements for entries originating in the air, ocean, rail, and truck environments, as specified in this notice. During this test, participants will collaborate with CBP and NHTSA to examine the effectiveness of the single window capability. IV. Test Participant Responsibilities PGA Message Set test participants will be required to:Transmit the NHTSA Vehicle/Equipment Information Collection with the ports that are accepting the ACE PGA Message Set data. A current list of those ports is posted on the following Web site: http://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/list-aceitds-pga-message-set-pilot-ports. Transmit, when applicable, the NHTSA Vehicle/Equipment Information Collection using the NHTSA PGA Message Set and the supporting documents via DIS. This information must be electronically transmitted to ACE using an ACE Entry Summary certified for cargo release at any time prior to the arrival of the merchandise on the conveyance transporting the cargo to the United States; Transmit the NHTSA Vehicle/Equipment Information Collection only as part of an ACE Entry Summary certified for cargo release; Transmit import filings to CBP via ABI in response to a request for documentation or in response to a request for release information for certified ACE Cargo Release; Only transmit to CBP information that has been requested by CBP or NHTSA; Use a software program that has completed ACE certification testing for the PGA Message Set; and Take part in a CBP evaluation of this test. Participants are reminded that they should only file documents that CBP can accept electronically. The documents CBP can accept electronically are listed under the Document Image System (DIS) tab of the ACE Features page on the Web site http://www.cbp.gov/trade/ace/features, and, for participants using ABI, in the PGA Message Set part of the CATAIR. When CBP cannot accept additional information electronically, the filer must file the additional information by paper. See 78 FR 75931 at 75934-35 (December 13, 2013), for information on Confidentiality (Section XIII) and Misconduct under the PGA Message Set Test (Section XIV). V. Waiver of Regulation Under the Test For purposes of this test, 19 CFR 12.80 will be waived for test participants only insofar as eliminating any requirement that may appear in these regulations to file a paper version of the DOT HS-7 Declaration Form or its supporting documents. In its place, test participants are required to transmit electronically the data elements contained in the DOT HS-7 Declaration Form via the PGA Message Set and the HS-7 Declaration Form's supporting documents via DIS. This document does not waive any recordkeeping requirements found in part 163 of title 19 of the CFR (19 CFR part 163) and the Appendix to part 163 (commonly known as the ``(a)(1)(A) list''). VI. Eligibility Criteria As announced in this notice, the use of the PGA Message Set test is expanding to accept DOT HS-7 Declaration Form data elements, also known as the NHTSA Vehicle/Equipment Information Collection, and supporting documents. All other eligibility criteria as specified in prior PGA Message Set test notices remain the same. To be eligible to apply for this modification of the PGA data message set test, the applicant must: Be a self-filing importer who has the ability to file ACE Entry Summaries certified for cargo release or a broker who has the ability to file ACE Entry Summaries certified for cargo release; and File entries for NHTSA-regulated commodities that are the subject of this test at the ports that are accepting PGA Message Set data. CBP will accept an unlimited number of participants for the test. Test applicants must meet the eligibility criteria described in this document to participate in the test program. VII. Application Process Any party seeking to participate in the modified PGA Message Set test concerning NHTSA data should send an email message to Clint Lindsay at [email protected] or Coleman Sachs at [email protected] to request participation in the modified test. They should send a copy of that request also to their CBP Client Representative, ACE Business Office (ABO), Office of International Trade. Interested parties without an assigned client representative should submit an email to Steven Zaccaro at [email protected] with the subject heading ``PGA Message Set NHTSA Test FRN-Request to Participate''. Emails sent to the CBP client representative or to Steven Zaccaro must include the applicant's filer code and the port(s) at which they are interested in filing the appropriate PGA Message Set information.
