ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This notice is given pursuant to the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act and Executive Order 12866 (``Regulatory Planning and Review''), which require the publication by the Department of a semiannual agenda of regulations. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The Agency contact identified in the item relating to that regulation. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The semiannual regulatory agenda includes regulations that the Department has issued or expects to issue and rules currently in effect that are under departmental or bureau review. Beginning with the fall 2007 edition, the Internet has been the primary medium for disseminating the Unified Agenda. The complete Unified Agenda will be available online at www.reginfo.gov and www.regulations.gov, in a format that offers users an enhanced ability to obtain information from the Agenda database. Because publication in the Federal Register is mandated for the regulatory flexibility agenda required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 602), Treasury's printed agenda entries include only: (1) Rules that are in the regulatory flexibility agenda, in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, because they are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities; and (2) Rules that have been identified for periodic review under section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Printing of these entries is limited to fields that contain information required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act's Agenda requirements. Additional information on these entries is available in the Unified Agenda available on the Internet. The semiannual agenda of the Department of the Treasury conforms to the Unified Agenda format developed by the Regulatory Information Service Center (RISC). Brian J. Sonfield, Deputy Assistant General Counsel for General Law and Regulation.

RIN: 1506-AB25 BILLING CODE 4810-02-P [[Page 37367]] DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY (TREAS) Customs Revenue Function (CUSTOMS) Proposed Rule Stage 224.Mandated Use of the Automated Commercial Environment for Submission of International Trade Data System Agency Information Accompanying Electronic Entry/Entry Summary (Cargo Release and Related Entry) Legal Authority: Not Yet Determined Abstract: This document proposes to amend the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations to reflect new requirements for filing in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). Pursuant to the Security and Accountability for Every (SAFE) Port Act of 2006, CBP plans to implement the International Trade Data System (ITDS) by making ACE the single window for processing of all entry and entry summary data. CBP expects that making ACE the single window for trade processing will help CBP eliminate redundant information submissions, efficiently regulate the flow of commerce, and effectively enforce laws and regulations relating to international trade, as mandated by the SAFE Port Act of 2006. To realize the full benefit of the single window, CBP proposes new regulations that will require filers submitting entry or entry summary data electronically in ACE also to file associated ITDS Agency data electronically in ACE, subject to limited exceptions. This rule will make each discrete entry or entry summary more uniform, as each transaction will be filed entirely in electronic format or entirely in paper format. This will enhance the ability of the U.S. Government to enforce the legal requirements pertaining to those transactions.
