Overview of This Information 

Collection 

Title: Global Interoperability 

Standards (GIS) 

OMB Number: 1651–0NEW. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Current Actions: New Collection of

Abstract: The Silicon Valley 

Innovation Program (SVIP), part of the 

Department of Homeland Security’s 

Science and Technology Directorate, 

helps develop and find new 

technologies that strengthen national 

security with the goal of reshaping how 

government and industry work together 

to find cutting-edge solutions to 

problems such as those involved in 

pipeline-borne goods. Neoflow (a SVIP 

participant) has a platform (the Neoflow 

platform) to document the movement 

(including ownership changes) of crude 

oil. The Neoflow platform will monitor 

Canadian crude oil, a continuous flow 

commodity, using global 

interoperability standards (GIS) adopted 

by test participants who will supply and 

input the GIS data into the Neoflow 

platform where CBP will be able to view 

the data in near real time. GIS data 

utilizes decentralized identifiers (DIDs) 

and verifiable credentials (VCs) to help 

in identifying legitimate products and 

associated companies to build a 

transparent supply chain. 

A transparent supply chain will be 

achieved in the Neoflow platform 

through the recordation of bi-lateral 

transaction data at each step in a supply 

chain, allowing for dynamic updates of 

ownership and destination information, 

securing supply chains from disclosure 

to unauthorized parties, and making this 

data available to CBP in near real time 

while creating an immutable chain of 

custody from wellhead to refinery. 

If successful, the test could result in 

the ability to potentially eliminate all 

port-level paper processes as well as 

create an automation environment in 

which pre-arrival data collection, inbond tracking, and Free Trade 

Agreement compliance traceability no 

longer pose issues. 

Therefore, the purpose of the test is to 

measure the usefulness and accuracy of 

the Neoflow platform’s GIS with a view 

toward resolving any issues prior to 

determining next steps (which could 

include implementing new policies and 

regulations leading to the integration of 

GIS data with the Automated 

Commercial Environment (ACE) for 

Canadian crude oil and other pipeline 

commodities for entry purposes). The 

test will be limited to pipeline oil 

products coming from Canada but may 

be expanded in the future to other 

commodities upon successful 

implementation of the test. 

This collection of information is 

authorized by 19 U.S.C. 1411 National 

Customs Automation Program.

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

Title: Collection of Advance 

Information from Certain Individuals on 

the Land Border. 

OMB Number: 1651–0140. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Current Actions: This submission will 

revise the collection to include 

documented individuals and extend the 

expiration date of this information 

collection. 

Type of Review: Revision. 

Affected Public: Individuals. 

Abstract: The Department of 

Homeland Security (DHS) and its 

component U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) have established a 

process to streamline the processing of 

travelers under title 8 of the United 

States Code at ports of entry (POEs). 

This process involves the submission of 

certain biographic and biometric 

information to CBP, via the CBP One TM

application, in advance of arrival at a 

POE. 

Under this collection, CBP collects 

certain biographic and biometric 

information from travelers via the CBP 

One TM application, prior to their arrival 

at a POE, to streamline their processing 

at the POE. The requested information 

is that which CBP would otherwise 

collect from these individuals during 

primary and/or secondary processing. 

This information is provided directly by 

travelers. Providing this information 

reduces the amount of data entered by 

CBP Officers (CBPOs) and the 

corresponding time required to process 

travelers at the POE. 

The biographic and biometric 

information being collected in advance, 

that would otherwise be collected 

during primary and/or secondary 

processing at the POEs, includes 

descriptive information such as: Name, 

Date of Birth, Country of Birth, City of 

Birth, Country of Residence, Contact 

Information, Addresses, Nationality, 

Employment history (optional), Travel 

history, Emergency Contact (optional), 

U.S. and foreign addresses, Familial 

Information, Marital Status, Identity 

Document (not a Western Hemisphere 

Travel Initiative (WHTI) compliant 

document) (optional), Name and contact 

information for someone who assisted 

the user (Optional), Gender, Preferred 

Language, Height, Weight, Eye color and 

Photograph. 

This collection may require the 

submission of a live facial photograph 

for all noncitizens who choose to 

provide advance information to CBP via 

CBP One TM. The submission of a live 

photograph in advance provides CBPOs 

with a mechanism to match a noncitizen 

who arrives at the POE with the 

photograph submitted in advance, 

therefore identifying those individuals, 

and verifying their identity as well as 

conducting advance vetting. The live 

photograph is particularly important for 

identity verification if an NGO/IO is not 

assisting an individual in scheduling 

their presentation at a POE. In addition, 

the requirement for a live photo that 

contains latitude and longitude data 

points allows CBP to ensure the 

individual is physically located within 

the designated geofence areas. Creating 

designated areas allows an individual to 

secure an appointment without 

congregating in potentially dangerous 

conditions at the U.S. Southwest 

Border; and only traveling to or through 

Mexico for the intended purpose of 

presenting themselves to CBP for 

inspection. Documented travelers will 

be required to submit a photo but will 

not be required to utilize the liveness 

feature. 

In addition, CBP allows individuals to 

request to present themselves for 

processing at a specific POE on a 

specific day or days, although such a 

request does not guarantee that an 

individual will be processed on a given 

date or at a given time. Individuals also 

have the opportunity to modify their 

requests within the CBP OneTM

application to an alternate day or time. 

The functionality to modify their 

request to an alternative date and time 

does not require the collection of new 

Personal Identification Information (PII) 

data elements. 

Noncitizens who use CBP One are 

processed in a more streamlined manner 

at the POE, since their advance 

information is prepopulated into CBP 

systems, which reduces manual data 

entry during processing. Travelers who 

did not submit information through CBP 

One may need to wait to be processed 

in a separate line from those who used 

CBP One (reserved for those who 

submitted their advance information 

and scheduled a presentation date). 

CBP invites the public to comment on 

the previously approved Emergency 

Revision for Noncitizens only: 

1. Change in CBP One Geofence 

Designated Areas: 

In response to a request from the 

Government of Mexico, CBP is adjusting 

the specific boundaries from where 

individuals can request and confirm 

CBP One appointments. 

Under the current process, 

individuals seeking appointments must 

be located within Central or Northern 

Mexico. The Government of Mexico has 

requested an adjustment to the geofence 

to assist in its efforts to influence where 

individuals congregate while they seek 

a CBP One appointment. CBP will be 

expanding the geofence for Mexican 

nationals to all of Mexico and CBP will 

be adding the Mexican states of Tabasco 

and Chiapas to the current boundaries 

for all other nationalities. By adjusting 

the boundaries, CBP will assist the 

Government of Mexico in its efforts to 

enforce its immigration laws and 

regulations and align resources to those 

areas where migrants are located. The 

Government of Mexico has the right to 

enforce their immigration laws and 

regulations and the current geofence 

boundaries hinder their migration 

enforcement approach. Further geofence 

adjustments may be made in the future 

in response to Government of Mexico 

requests. 

2. Validation Tool: 

Due to the volume of individuals 

traveling through Mexico to present at a 

POE at a designated date and time, the 

Government of Mexico is requesting 

assistance in validating appointments of 

individuals or groups of individuals it 

encounters transiting through Mexico. 

In response, CBP is deploying a 

validation mechanism to assist Mexican 

government officials when they 

encounter an individual or group who 

claim to have a CBP One appointment. 

The tool will require the Mexican 

government official to enter an 

individual’s CBP One confirmation 

number and date of birth. Once 

submitted, the tool will return 

confirmation of any valid CBP One 

appointment with the appointment date, 

time, and location, as well as the total 

number of people in the group. 

This Revision Submission: 

In the previous 60-day FRN CBP 

announced no changes to the collection, 

however in this notice CBP has added 

a new change that enables documented 

travelers to utilize the CBP One 

application, previously a feature only 

available for undocumented travelers.

Affected Public: Individuals. 

Abstract: Travelers seeking to enter 

under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) 

by air or sea, are required to receive a 

travel authorization through the 

Electronic System for Travel 

Authorization (ESTA) prior to travel to 

the United States. ESTA is a mobile and 

web-based application and screening 

system used to determine whether 

certain noncitizens are eligible to travel 

to the United States under the VWP in 

the air, sea, and land environments. 

Travelers who are not eligible to travel 

under VWP may apply for a visa at a 

U.S. Embassy or Consular Office. 

ESTA was provided for by the Secure 

Travel and Counterterrorism 

Partnership Act of 2007 (section 711 of 

the Implementing Recommendations of 

the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007, also 

known as the ‘‘9/11 Act,’’ Public Law
