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 75684) on December 
3, 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: User Fees.
    OMB Number: 1651-0052.
    Form Number: CBP Forms 339A, 339C and 339V.
    Abstract: The Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 
1985 (COBRA- Pub. L. 99-272; 19 U.S.C. 58c) authorizes the collection 
of user fees by Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The collection of 
these fees requires submission of information from the party remitting 
the fees to CBP. This

information is submitted on three forms including the CBP Form 339A for 
aircraft at: http://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/CBP%20Form%20339A.pdf, CBP Form 339C for commercial vehicles at: http://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/CBP%20Form%20339C.pdf, and 
CBP Form 339V for vessels at: http://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/documents/CBP%20Form%20339V.pdf. The information on these forms may 
also be filed electronically at: https://dtops.cbp.dhs.gov/. This 
collection of information is provided for by 19 CFR 24.22.
    In addition, CBP requires express consignment courier facilities 
(ECCFs) to file lists of couriers using the facility in accordance with 
19 CFR 128.11. In cases of overpayments, carriers using the courier 
facilities may send a request to CBP for a refund in accordance with 19 
CFR 24.23(b). This request must specify the grounds for the refund. 
ECCFs are also required to file a quarterly report in accordance with 
19 CFR 24.23(b)(4).
    Current Actions: This submission is being made to extend the 
expiration date with a change to the burden hours as a result of a new 
pilot that CBP is planning that will allow for a new payment option for 
commercial truck single-crossing user fees. This new pilot program will 
allow commercial truck carriers who opt for the single-crossing user 
fee to prepay the single-crossing user fee online via the DTOPS Web 
site prior to arrival at a port of entry. As a result, the estimated 
number of users for the DTOPS Web site (Form 339C--Vehicles) was 
increased from 50,000 to 90,000.
    Type of Review: Extension (with change).
    Affected Public: Carriers.
