for liquidated damages and the
mitigation of those claims when
participants in the National Customs
Automation Program (NCAP) test for the
Periodic Monthly Statement Payment
Process fail to pay estimated duties in
the time period prescribed by law. In
addition, CBP may exercise the
authority to suspend any bond principal
(the importer of record) from
participation in the Periodic Monthly
Payment Statement test and require that
the bond principal pay estimated duties
and fees on an entry-by-entry basis.
Further, CBP may exercise the authority
to require the bond principal to file
entry summary documentation with
estimated duties and fees attached
before merchandise is released from any
CBP port.
DATES: Effective Date: The guidelines
are effective on October 17, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Comments concerning this
Notice should be submitted via e-mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On February 4, 2004, Customs and
Border Protection (CBP) published a
General Notice in the Federal Register
(69 FR 5362) announcing the National
Customs Automation Program (NCAP)
test for the Periodic Monthly Payment
Statement Process. The test, which is
part of CBP’s Automated Commercial
Environment (ACE), benefits
participants by giving them access to
operational data through the ACE
Secured Data Portal (‘‘ACE Portal’’),

interact electronically with CBP, and by
allowing them to deposit estimated
duties and fees on a monthly basis
based on a Periodic Monthly Statement
generated by CBP.
As provided in the February 4, 2004
General Notice announcing the test,
