Modification of National Customs Automation Program Test Regarding Reconciliation

A notice published in the Federal Register on February 6, 1997, announced Customs plan to conduct a prototype test of reconciliation. This document is a replacement for that notice. This document notifies the trade community of changes to the prototype test and sets forth the policy which makes this prototype the exclusive means to reconcile entries, pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1484(b). The prototype will henceforth be referred to as the Automated Commercial System (ACS) Reconciliation Prototype. This document invites public comments concerning any aspect of the planned test, informs interested members of the public of the requirements for voluntary participation, and establishes the process for developing evaluation criteria. To participate in this prototype, certain information, as outlined in this notice, must be filed with Customs prior to filing Reconciliations. It is important to note that resources expended by the trade and Customs on these prototypes may not carry forward to the final program.
