- CBP is informing the Office of Management and Budget that it plans to continue to collect information from a port's application to establish a centralized examination station.

- CBP is informing the Office of Management and Budget of its plan to collect information as it seeks to establish a pilot program within the Customs-Trade Partnership Against Terrorism that would allow 10 non-asset-based and 10 asset-based third-party logistics partners to participate in the CTPAT program. "This pilot will help CBP to assess whether allowing non-asset-based 3PLs and asset-based 3PLs to participate in CTPAT would enhance port security, combat terrorism, prevent supply chain security breaches, or otherwise meet the goals of CTPAT," CBP said.
