regulations and requirements associated
with the entry process.
After an initial six-month period (or at
such earlier time as CBP deems
appropriate), a test participant may be
subject to discontinuance from
participation in this test for any of the
following repeated actions:
• Failure to follow the terms and
conditions of this test;
• Failure to exercise due diligence in
the execution of participant obligations;
• Failure to abide by applicable laws
and regulations that have not been
waived; or
• Failure to deposit duties or fees in
a timely manner.
If the Director, Interagency
Collaboration Division (ICD), Trade
Policy and Programs (TPP), Office of
Trade (OT), finds that there is a basis to
discontinue a participant’s participation
in the test, then CBP will provide
written notice, via email, proposing the
discontinuance with a description of the
facts or conduct supporting the
proposal. The test participant will be
offered the opportunity to respond to
the Director’s proposal in writing within
10 business days of the date of the
written notice. The response must be
submitted to the ICD Director, TPP, OT,
by emailing GBI@cbp.dhs.gov, with a
subject line reading ‘‘Appeal—GBI
Discontinuance.’’
The Director, ICD, will issue a final
decision in writing on the proposed
action within 30 business days after
receiving a timely filed response from
the test participant, unless such time is
extended for good cause. If no timely
response is received, the proposed
notice becomes the final decision of
CBP as of the date that the response
period expires. A proposed
discontinuance of a test participant’s
privileges will not take effect unless the
response process under this paragraph
has been concluded with a written
decision that is adverse to the test
participant, which will be provided via
email.
J. Confidentiality
Data submitted and entered into ACE
may include confidential commercial or
financial information which may be
protected under the Trade Secrets Act
(18 U.S.C. 1905), the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), and the
Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a). However, as
stated in previous notices, participation
in this or any of the previous ACE tests
is not confidential and, therefore, upon
receipt of a written Freedom of
Information Act request, the name(s) of
an approved participant(s) will be
disclosed by CBP in accordance with 5
U.S.C. 552.

IV. Comments on the Test
All interested parties are invited to
comment on any aspect of this test at
any time. CBP requests comments and
feedback on all aspects of this test,
including the design, conduct and
implementation of the test, in order to
determine whether to modify, alter,
expand, limit, continue, end, or fully
implement this program. Comments
should be submitted via email to GBI@
cbp.dhs.gov, with the subject line
reading ‘‘Comments/Questions on GBI
EPoC.’’
V. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507(d)) requires that
CBP consider the impact of paperwork
and other information collection
burdens imposed on the public. An
agency may not conduct, and a person
is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless the
collection of information displays a
valid control number assigned by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB).
The new GBI collection of
information gathered under this test has
been approved by OMB in accordance
with the requirements of the PRA and
assigned OMB control number 1651–
0141. In addition, the Entry/Immediate
Delivery Application and ACE Cargo
Release (CBP Form 3461 and 3461 ALT)
has been updated to accommodate the
GBI test, and approved by OMB under
OMB control number 1651–0024.
VI. Evaluation Criteria
The test is intended to evaluate the
feasibility of replacing the current
manufacturer or shipper identification
code (MID) with unique entity
identifiers (GBIs) to more accurately
identify legal business entities, their
different business locations and
addresses, as well as their various
functions and supply chain roles, based
upon information derived from the
unique D–U–N–S®, GLN, and LEI entity
identifiers. The test will assist CBP in
enforcing applicable laws and
protecting the revenue, while fulfilling
trade modernization efforts by assisting
the agency in verifying the roles,
functions and responsibilities that
various entities play in a given
participants’ importation of
merchandise. CBP’s evaluation of the
test, including the review of any
comments submitted to CBP during the
duration of the test, will be ongoing
with a view to possible extension or
expansion of the test.
CBP will evaluate whether the test: (1)
improves foreign entity data for trade
PO 00000
Frm 00039

Sfmt 4703
74161
facilitation, risk management, and
statistical integrity; (2) ensures U.S.
Government access to foreign entity
data; (3) institutionalizes a global,
managed identification system; (4)
implements a cost-effective solution; (5)
obtains stakeholder buy-in; and (6)
facilitates legal compliance across the
U.S. Government. At the conclusion of
the test, an evaluation will be conducted
to assess the efficacy of the information
received throughout the course of the
test. The final results of the evaluation
will be published in the Federal
Register as required by section
101.9(b)(2) of the CBP regulations (19
CFR 101.9(b)(2)).
Should the GBI EPoC be successful
and ultimately be codified under the
CBP regulations, CBP anticipates that
this data would greatly enhance ongoing
trade entity identification and
resolution, reduce risk, and improve
compliance operations. CBP would also
anticipate greater supply chain visibility
and verified, validated information on
legal entities, which will support better
decision-making during customs
clearance processes.
