SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

NSTAC advises the President on issues 

and problems related to implementing 

national security and emergency 

preparedness telecommunications 

policy. Notice of this meeting is given 

under the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act (FACA), Public Law 92–463, as 

amended (5 U.S.C. App.1 et seq.). 

At the upcoming meeting, between 2 

p.m. and 2:25 p.m., the members will 

receive comments from government 

stakeholders and receive an update from 

the NSTAC’s International Task Force 

(ITF). This portion of the meeting will 

be open to the public. 

Between 2:25 p.m. and 3 p.m., the 

committee will discuss Global 

Infrastructure Resiliency (GIR). This 

portion of the meeting will be closed to 

the public. 

Persons with disabilities who require 

special assistance should indicate this 

when arranging access to the 

teleconference and are encouraged to 

identify anticipated special needs as 

early as possible. 

Basis for Closure: The GIR discussion 

will likely involve sensitive 

infrastructure information concerning 

system threats and explicit physical/ 

cyber vulnerabilities of the undersea 

communications infrastructure. Public 

disclosure of such information would 

heighten awareness of potential 

vulnerabilities and increase the 

likelihood of exploitation by terrorists 

or other motivated adversaries. Pursuant 

to Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act, Public Law 92–463, as 

amended (5 U.S.C. App. 1 et seq.), the 

Department has determined that this 

discussion will concern matters which, 

if disclosed, would be likely to frustrate 

significantly the implementation of a 

proposed agency action. Accordingly, 

the relevant portion of this meeting will 

be closed to the public pursuant to the 

authority set forth in 5 U.S.C. 

552b(c)(9)(B). 

Sallie McDonald, 

Deputy Manager, National Communications 

System.

Automated Commercial Environment 

(ACE): Ability of Third Parties To 

Submit Manifest Information on Behalf 

of Truck Carriers Via the ACE Secure 

Data Portal in the Test of the ACE 

Truck Manifest System 

AGENCY: Customs and Border Protection, 

Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: General notice. 

SUMMARY: This document announces 

that truck carriers participating in the 

ACE Truck Manifest Test and electing to 

use third parties to submit manifest 

information to the Bureau of Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP) via the 

Automated Commercial Environment 

(ACE) Secure Data Portal are no longer 

required to have ACE portal accounts. 

Thus, truck carriers without ACE portal 

accounts, while participating in the test 

of the ACE truck manifest system, may 

now use third parties (such as Customs 

brokers or other truck carriers) with 

ACE portal accounts to electronically 

transmit truck manifest information, via 

the ACE portal, on their behalf. 

DATES: Truck carriers participating in 

the ACE Truck Manifest Test without 

ACE portal accounts may use third 

parties with ACE portal accounts to 

electronically transmit truck manifest 

information via the ACE portal, on their 

behalf, beginning March 15, 2007.

James Swanson, via e-mail at 

james.d.swanson@dhs.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 4, 2004 and September 

13, 2004, CBP published general notices 

in the Federal Register (69 FR 55167 

and 69 FR 5360) announcing a test, in 

conjunction with the Federal Motor 

Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), 

allowing participating truck carriers to 

transmit electronic manifest data in 

ACE, including advance cargo 

information as required by section 

343(a) of the Trade Act of 2002, as 

amended by the Maritime 

Transportation Security Act of 2002. 

The advance cargo information 

requirements are detailed in the final 

rule published in the Federal Register at 

68 FR 68140 on December 5, 2003. 

Truck carriers participating in the test 

opened up Truck Carrier [Portal] 

Accounts which provided them with the 

ability to electronically transmit truck 

manifest data and obtain release of their 

cargo, crew, conveyances, and 

equipment via the ACE Portal or 

electronic data interchange (EDI) 

messaging. 

In the September 13, 2004, notice, 

CBP stated that, in order to be eligible 

for participation in this test, a carrier 

must have: 

1. Submitted an application (i.e., 

statement of intent to establish an ACE 

[Portal] Account and to participate in 

the testing of electronic truck manifest 

functionality) as set forth in the 

February 4, 2004, notice;
