Document Number: E7-22788
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2007-11-21
Agency: Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Customs and Border Protection
This document proposes new criteria to be used by Customs and Border Protection (``CBP'') to determine whether non-coastwise- qualified vessels are in violation of the Passenger Vessel Services Act (PVSA) when engaging in cruise itineraries in which passengers board at a U.S. port, the vessel calls at several Hawaiian ports, and then the vessel proceeds to a foreign port or ports for a brief period, before ultimately returning to the original U.S. port of embarkation where the passengers disembark to complete their cruise.
