Customs Service Field Organization; Establishment of Sanford Port of Entry

摘要

This document delays the effective date for implementation of a final rule document published in the Federal Register July 11, 1997, as T.D. 97-64, which would establish a new port of entry at Orlando- Sanford Airport in Sanford, Florida effective November 10, 1997. Since publication of the final rule document, the Airport Operator has brought to Customs attention that the date chosen by Customs significantly impairs its agreements with air carriers that were signed prior to Customs announcement of its decision. In addition, the Airport Operator claims that cargo and warehousing space currently available at the airport must be expanded to accommodate projected needs. Because of these factors, Customs is delaying the effective date to May 1, 1998 for the port of entry designation. The user-fee status of the airport will continue until the new effective date.
