CBP’s pilot test of electronic export ocean manifests (CBP Form 1302A) using the CBP Document Image System (DIS) will be expanded in mid-August to cover all East Coast ports, as well as the ports of Chicago, Buffalo, and Detroit, said Cynthia Allen of CBP’s ACE Business Office. The pilot, which began March 28, included eight ports in the Southeast and was based at CBP’s Atlanta office. The 18 participating carriers were given the option of entirely electronic filing of their ocean export manifests. “One carrier has calculated savings of $20,000 per month” due to the pilot, said Allen.
