Advance Electronic Presentation of
Cargo Information for Truck Carriers
Required To Be Transmitted Through
ACE Truck Manifest at Ports in the
States of Maine and Minnesota
Customs and Border Protection,
Department of Homeland Security.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 343(a) of
the Trade Act of 2002 and implementing
regulations, truck carriers and other
eligible parties are required to transmit
advance electronic truck cargo
information to Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) through a CBPapproved electronic data interchange. In
a previous document, CBP designated
the Automated Commercial
Environment (ACE) Truck Manifest
System as the approved interchange and
announced that the requirement that
advance electronic cargo information be
transmitted through ACE would be
phased in by groups of ports of entry.
This document announces that at all
land border ports in Maine and
Minnesota truck carriers will be
required to file electronic manifests
through the ACE Truck Manifest
System.
DATES: Trucks entering the United
States through land border ports of entry
in the states of Maine and Minnesota
will be required to transmit the advance
information through the ACE Truck
Manifest system effective October 16,
2007.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
James Swanson, via e-mail at
james.d.swanson@dhs.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 343(a) of the Trade Act of
2002, as amended (the Act; 19 U.S.C.
2071 note), required that CBP
promulgate regulations providing for the
mandatory transmission of electronic
cargo information by way of a CBPapproved electronic data interchange
(EDI) system before the cargo is brought
into or departs the United States by any
mode of commercial transportation (sea,
air, rail or truck). The cargo information
required is that which is reasonably
necessary to enable high-risk shipments
to be identified for purposes of ensuring
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
cargo safety and security and preventing
smuggling pursuant to the laws enforced
and administered by CBP.
On December 5, 2003, CBP published
in the Federal Register (68 FR 68140) a
final rule to effectuate the provisions of
the Act. In particular, a new section
123.92 (19 CFR 123.92) was added to
the regulations to implement the
inbound truck cargo provisions. Section
123.92 describes the general
requirement that, in the case of any
inbound truck required to report its
arrival under section 123.1(b), if the
truck will have commercial cargo
aboard, CBP must electronically receive
certain information regarding that cargo
through a CBP-approved EDI system no
later than 1 hour prior to the carrier’s
reaching the first port of arrival in the
United States. For truck carriers arriving
with shipments qualified for clearance
under the FAST (Free and Secure Trade)
program, section 123.92 provides that
CBP must electronically receive such
cargo information through the CBPapproved EDI system no later than 30
minutes prior to the carrier’s reaching
the first port of arrival in the United
States.
ACE Truck Manifest Test
On September 13, 2004, CBP
published a notice in the Federal
Register (69 FR 55167) announcing a
test allowing participating Truck Carrier
Accounts to transmit electronic manifest
data for inbound cargo through ACE,
with any such transmissions
automatically complying with advance
cargo information requirements as
provided in section 343(a) of the Trade
Act of 2002. Truck Carrier Accounts
participating in the test were given the
ability to electronically transmit the
truck manifest data and obtain release of
their cargo, crew, conveyances, and
equipment via the ACE Portal or
electronic data interchange messaging.
A series of notices announced
additional deployments of the test, with
deployment sites being phased in as
clusters. Clusters were announced in the
following notices published in the
Federal Register: 70 FR 30964 (May 31,
2005); 70 FR 43892 (July 29, 2005); 70
FR 60096 (October 14, 2005); 71 FR
(January 24, 2006); 71 FR 23941 (April
25, 2006); 71 FR 42103 (July 25, 2006),
71 FR 77404 (December 26, 2006); 72 FR
7058 (February 14, 2007); 72 FR 14127
(March 26, 2007); and 72 FR 32135
(June 11, 2007).
CBP has now tested ACE at all of the
planned ports, with the exception of
Alaska. CBP expects to announce the
test of the ACE truck manifest system at
the land border ports in Alaska in a
future notice in the Federal Register.

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 137 / Wednesday, July 18, 2007 / Rules and Regulations
Designation of ACE Truck Manifest
System as the Approved Data
Interchange System
In a notice published October 27,
2006 (71 FR 62922), CBP designated the
Automated Commercial Environment
(ACE) Truck Manifest System as the
approved EDI for the transmission of
required data and announced that the
requirement that advance electronic
cargo information be transmitted
through ACE would be phased in by
groups of ports of entry.
ACE will be phased in as the required
transmission system at some ports even
while it is still being tested at other
ports. However, the use of ACE to
transmit advance electronic truck cargo
information will not be required in any
port in which CBP has not first
conducted the test.
The October 27, 2006, document
identified all land border ports in the
states of Washington and Arizona and
the ports of Pembina, Neche, Walhalla,
Maida, Hannah, Sarles, and Hansboro in
North Dakota as the first group of ports
where use of the ACE Truck Manifest
System is mandated. Subsequently, CBP
announced on January 19, 2007 (72 FR
2435) that, after 90 days notice, the use
of the ACE Truck Manifest System will
be mandatory at all land border ports in
the states of California, Texas and New
Mexico. On February 23, 2007 (72 FR
8109), CBP announced that, after 90
days notice, the ACE Truck Manifest
System will be mandatory at all land
border ports in Michigan and New York.
On April 13, 2007 (72 FR 18574), CBP
announced that, after 90 days notice, the
ACE Truck Manifest System will be
mandatory at all land border ports in
Vermont and New Hampshire, and at
the land border ports in North Dakota at
which ACE had not been required by
any previous notice. On May 8, 2007 (72
FR 25965), CBP announced that, again
after 90 days notice, the ACE Truck
Manifest System will be mandatory at
all land border ports in the states of
Idaho and Montana, as well.
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC71 with RULES
ACE Mandated at Land Border Ports of
Entry in Maine and Minnesota
Applicable regulations (19 CFR
123.92(e)) require CBP, 90 days prior to
mandating advance electronic
information at a port of entry, to publish
notice in the Federal Register informing
affected carriers that the EDI system is
in place and fully operational.
Accordingly, CBP is announcing in this
document that, effective 90 days from
the date of publication of this notice,
truck carriers entering the United States
through land border ports of entry in the
states of Maine and Minnesota will be
VerDate Aug<31>2005
10:08 Jul 18, 2007
Jkt 211001
required to present advance electronic
cargo information regarding truck cargo
through the ACE Truck Manifest
System.
Although other systems that have
been deemed acceptable by CBP for
transmitting advance truck manifest
data will continue to operate and may
still be used in the normal course of
business for purposes other than
transmitting advance truck manifest
data, use of systems other than ACE will
no longer satisfy advance electronic
cargo information requirements at the
ports of entry announced in this
document as of October 16, 2007.
Compliance Sequence
CBP has now either required the use
of ACE for the transmission of advance
electronic truck cargo information, or
provided 90 days notice that it intends
to do so, at every land border port in
which CBP originally planned to require
the use of ACE, with the exception of
the land border ports in the state of
Alaska.
Following the testing of the ACE truck
manifest system at the land border ports
in Alaska, CBP expects to announce in
a Federal Register notice that it is
providing 90 days’ notice before ACE
will be the mandatory transmission
system for those ports as well.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On January 26, 2006, the IRS and
Treasury Department published a notice
of proposed rulemaking (REG–138879–
05, 71 FR 4319) by cross-reference to a
temporary regulation under § 1.1502–19
(TD 9244, 71 FR 4264). Prior to the
publication of the proposed and
temporary regulations, the direction of a
transaction determined whether an
excess loss account would be reduced or
eliminated. For example, if P had
owned all the stock of S with an excess
loss account of $100 and all of the stock
of T with a basis of $150, and T had
merged into S in a reorganization
described in section 368(a)(1)(D) in
which P received additional shares of S
stock, under § 1.1502–19(d), P’s excess
loss account in its original shares of S
stock was first eliminated. Therefore, P’s
original S shares would have had an
aggregate basis of $0 and P’s new S
shares would have had an aggregate
basis of $50. However, if S instead had
merged into T in a reorganization
described in section 368(a)(1)(D) in
which P received additional shares of T
stock, § 1.1502–19(d) would not have
applied because P did not already have
T shares with an excess loss account.
Therefore, P’s original T shares would
have had a basis of $150 and P’s new
T shares would have had an excess loss
account of $100.
The IRS and Treasury Department
found the electivity of the rule based on
the direction of the transaction to be
undesirable. Accordingly, the IRS and
Treasury Department added § 1.1502–
19T(d), which provides that, if a
member would otherwise determine
shares of a class of S’s stock (a new
share) to have an excess loss account
and such member owns one or more
other shares of the same class of S’s
stock, the basis of such other shares is

CBP has now tested ACE at all of the planned ports, with the
exception of Alaska. CBP expects to announce the test of the ACE truck
manifest system at the land border ports in Alaska in a future notice
in the Federal Register.

Designation of ACE Truck Manifest System as the Approved Data
Interchange System
In a notice published October 27, 2006 (71 FR 62922), CBP
designated the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Truck Manifest
System as the approved EDI for the transmission of required data and
announced that the requirement that advance electronic cargo
information be transmitted through ACE would be phased in by groups of
ports of entry.
ACE will be phased in as the required transmission system at some
ports even while it is still being tested at other ports. However, the
use of ACE to transmit advance electronic truck cargo information will
not be required in any port in which CBP has not first conducted the
test.
The October 27, 2006, document identified all land border ports in
the states of Washington and Arizona and the ports of Pembina, Neche,
Walhalla, Maida, Hannah, Sarles, and Hansboro in North Dakota as the
first group of ports where use of the ACE Truck Manifest System is
mandated. Subsequently, CBP announced on January 19, 2007 (72 FR 2435)
that, after 90 days notice, the use of the ACE Truck Manifest System
will be mandatory at all land border ports in the states of California,
Texas and New Mexico. On February 23, 2007 (72 FR 8109), CBP announced
that, after 90 days notice, the ACE Truck Manifest System will be
mandatory at all land border ports in Michigan and New York. On April
13, 2007 (72 FR 18574), CBP announced that, after 90 days notice, the
ACE Truck Manifest System will be mandatory at all land border ports in
Vermont and New Hampshire, and at the land border ports in North Dakota
at which ACE had not been required by any previous notice. On May 8,
2007 (72 FR 25965), CBP announced that, again after 90 days notice, the
ACE Truck Manifest System will be mandatory at all land border ports in
the states of Idaho and Montana, as well.
ACE Mandated at Land Border Ports of Entry in Maine and Minnesota
Applicable regulations (19 CFR 123.92(e)) require CBP, 90 days
prior to mandating advance electronic information at a port of entry,
to publish notice in the Federal Register informing affected carriers
that the EDI system is in place and fully operational. Accordingly, CBP
is announcing in this document that, effective 90 days from the date of
publication of this notice, truck carriers entering the United States
through land border ports of entry in the states of Maine and Minnesota
will be required to present advance electronic cargo information
regarding truck cargo through the ACE Truck Manifest System.
Although other systems that have been deemed acceptable by CBP for
transmitting advance truck manifest data will continue to operate and
may still be used in the normal course of business for purposes other
than transmitting advance truck manifest data, use of systems other
than ACE will no longer satisfy advance electronic cargo information
requirements at the ports of entry announced in this document as of
October 16, 2007.
Compliance Sequence
CBP has now either required the use of ACE for the transmission of
advance electronic truck cargo information, or provided 90 days notice
that it intends to do so, at every land border port in which CBP
originally planned to require the use of ACE, with the exception of the
land border ports in the state of Alaska.
Following the testing of the ACE truck manifest system at the land
border ports in Alaska, CBP expects to announce in a Federal Register
notice that it is providing 90 days' notice before ACE will be the
mandatory transmission system for those ports as well.
