Overview of This Information
Collection
Title: e-Allegations Submission.
OMB Number: 1651–0131.
Form Number: None.
Current Action: CBP proposes to
extend the expiration date of this
information collection. The time burden
hours have been adjusted to account for
the addition of the EAPA Allegations
that have been added to this collection.
Type of Review: Extension (with
change).
Affected Public: Businesses,
Individuals.
Abstract: U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) established the eAllegations program in June 2008 to
create a central location for the public
to report allegations of trade law
violations. The information provided by
the public enables CBP, in collaboration
with our partners, to protect our
economy from the effects of unfair trade
practices and guard against the entry of
products that could pose a threat to
health and safety. The information
collected through the portal includes
the name individual filing the allegation
(this individual may remain
anonymous), their contact information,
and information pertinent to the
allegation of a trade law violation.
This collection of this information is
authorized by the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (19 U.S.C.1202 et seq.), the
Homeland Security Act of 2002 (Title 6,
U.S.C. 101), and the Security and
Accountability for Every Port Act of
2006 [‘‘SAFE Port Act’’] (Pub. L. 109–
347, Oct. 13, 2006). The e-Allegations
website is accessible at https://
www.cbp.gov/trade/e-allegations/.
Congress passed the Enforce and
Protect Act (‘‘EAPA’’), in February 2016,
as a part of the Trade Facilitation and
Trade Enforcement Act (‘‘TFTEA’’) of
2015 (Pub. L. 114–125, Feb. 24, 2016).
The EAPA legislation specifically was
intended to improve trade law
enforcement and duty collection for
antidumping and countervailing duty
orders, thus helping to create a levelplaying field for U.S. businesses. To that
end, CBP designed an investigative
process that provides for a multi-party,
transparent, on-the-record
