| Title: Electronic Reporting of Chemical Import Data in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) | |
| Abstract: EPA will consult with Customs and Border Protection (CBP), in the Department of Homeland Security, about the development of proposed regulatory revisions necessary for the implementation of electronic reporting of chemical import information in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE). Congress has mandated participation in the International Trade Data System (ITDS) through passage of the SAFE Port Act in October 2006. The ITDS Program is a government-wide organizational framework managed by CBP to assist every Federal agency that has import/export responsibilities to integrate their requirements into ACE. Participation in the ITDS Program has also been recommended by the Import Safety Working Group (ISWG), established under Executive Order 13439 (July 18, 2007). ACE is a data warehouse being designed by CBP that will serve as a single portal for the electronic collection and processing of all data required by any federal agency pertaining to the importation of commodities into, and their exportation from, the U.S. After testing the electronic collection of such data in ACE under the National Customs Automation Program (19 U.S.C. 1411; 19 C.F.R. 101.9), CBP will need to amend its regulations to require electronic reporting by importers into ACE. Other amendments to the regulations (e.g., relating to detention of shipments) may also be considered by CBP. For EPA, this includes amendments to related regulations under the Toxics Substances Control Act (TSCA) and the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), which impose reporting requirements for importers and exporters of chemical substances and pesticides. Regulations regarding imports under TSCA and FIFRA are promulgated by CBP, in consultation with EPA. | |
