63237) extending the ACAS pilot period
through July 26, 2014, and reopening
the application period through
December 23, 2013. On July 28, 2014,
CBP published a notice in the Federal
Register (79 FR 43766) extending the
ACAS pilot period through July 26,
2015, and reopening the application
period through September 26, 2014.
Finally, on July 27, 2015, CBP published
a notice in the Federal Register (80 FR
44360) extending the ACAS pilot period
through July 26, 2016, and reopening
the application period through October
26, 2015.
Each extension of the pilot period and
reopening of the application period has
allowed for a significant increase in the
diversity and number of pilot
participants. The current pilot
participants now represent a strong
sample size of the air cargo community
and new pilot participants will not be
accepted.
CBP intends to issue a notice of
proposed rulemaking to incorporate
ACAS as an ongoing regulatory program
taking into account the results of the
pilot and has begun work on that
process. CBP would like the pilot to
continue during the rulemaking process.
This will provide continuity in the flow
of advance air cargo security
information and serve as a stop-gap
measure to address the vulnerability of
the air cargo supply chain identified by
the October 2010 Yemen cargo plot. CBP
would also like to provide pilot
participants with the additional
opportunity to adjust and test business
procedures and operations in
preparation for the forthcoming
rulemaking.
For these reasons, CBP is extending
the ACAS pilot period through July 26,
2017.
Dated: July 19, 2016.

Executive Assistant Commissioner, Office of
Field Operations.
