Overview of This Information Collection

    Title: Small Vessel Reporting System.
    OMB Number: 1651-0137.
    Abstract: The Small Vessel Reporting System (SVRS) is a pilot 
program that allows certain participants using small pleasure boats to 
report their arrival telephonically instead of having to appear in 
person for inspection by a CBP officer each time they enter the United 
States. In some cases, a participant may also be asked to report to CBP 
for an in person inspection upon arrival. Participants may be U.S. 
citizens, U.S. lawful permanent residents, Canadian citizens, and 
permanent residents of Canada who are nationals of Visa Waiver Program 
countries listed in 8 CFR 217.2(a). In addition, participants of one or 
more Trusted Traveler programs and current Canadian Border Boater 
Landing Permit (CBP Form I-68) holders may participate in SVRS.
    In order to register for the SVRS pilot program, participants enter 
data via the SVRS website, which collects information such as 
biographical information and vessel information. Participants will go 
through the in person CBP inspection process during SVRS registration, 
and in some cases, upon arrival in the United States.
    For each voyage, SVRS participants will be required to submit a 
float plan about their voyage via the SVRS website in advance of 
arrival in the United States. The float plan includes vessel 
information, a listing of all persons on board, estimated dates and 
times of departure and return, and information on the locations to be 
visited on the trip. Participants in SVRS can create a float plan for 
an individual voyage or a template for a float plan that can be used 
multiple times.
    SVRS in accordance with 8 U.S.C. 1225, 8 CFR 235.1, 19 U.S.C. 1433, 
and 19 CFR 4.2. The SVRS website is accessible at: https://svrs.cbp.dhs.gov/.
    Current Actions: CBP proposes to extend the expiration date of this 
information collection with no change to the burden hours. There is no 
change to the information being collected.
    Type of Review: Extension (without change).
    Affected Public: Individuals.
