Overview of This Information Collection

    Title: Report of Diversion.
    OMB Number: 1651-0025.
    Form Number: CBP Form 26.
    Current Actions: CBP plans to automate CBP Form 26. No change to 
the information being collected and no change to burden hours 
previously reported.
    Type of Review: Extension with change of an existing information 
collection.
    Affected Public: Businesses.
    Abstract: CBP Form 26, Report of Diversion, is used to track 
vessels traveling coastwise from U.S. ports to other U.S. ports when a 
change occurs in scheduled itineraries. This form is initiated by the 
vessel owner or agent to notify and request approval by CBP for a 
vessel to divert while traveling coastwise from a U.S. port to another 
U.S. port, or a vessel traveling to a foreign port having to divert to 
a U.S. port when a change occurs in the vessel itinerary. CBP Form 26 
collects information such as the name and nationality of the vessel, 
the expected port and date of arrival, and information about any 
related penalty cases, if applicable. This information collection is 
authorized by 46 U.S.C. 60105 and is provided for in 19 CFR 4.91. CBP 
Form 26 is accessible at: https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms?title=26.
    Proposed Change: This form is anticipated to be submitted 
electronically as part of the maritime forms automation project through 
the Vessel Entrance and Clearance System (VECS), which will eliminate 
the need for any paper submission of any vessel entrance or clearance 
requirements under the above referenced statutes and regulations. VECS 
will still collect and maintain the same data but will automate the 
capture of data to reduce or eliminate redundancy with other data 
collected by CBP.
    Type of Information Collection: CBP Form 26.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,400.
    Estimated Number of Annual Responses per Respondent: 2.
    Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 2,800.
    Estimated Time per Response: 5 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 233.


    Dated: March 30, 2022.
Seth D. Renkema,
Branch Chief, Economic Impact Analysis Branch, U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection.
