## Background 

                    In a General Notice published in the                     **Federal Register**                     (73 FR 19861) on April 11, 2008, CBP announced a pilot international registered traveler program, then referred to as International Registered Traveler (IRT), scheduled to commence operations at three initial airports on June 10, 2008. In a notice published in the                     **Federal Register**                     (73 FR 30416) on May 27, 2008, CPB announced that the program is now known as Global Entry and that the starting date had been moved to June 6, 2008. The pilot began operations as scheduled at three initial airport locations: John F. Kennedy International Airport, Jamaica, New York (JFK); the George Bush Intercontinental Airport, Houston, Texas (IAH); and the Washington Dulles International Airport, Sterling, Virginia (IAD).                 

                    The Global Entry pilot program allows for the expedited clearance of pre-approved, low-risk travelers into the                           ( print page 47205)                        United States. Among other things, the April 11, 2008 notice contained a description of the program, the eligibility criteria and the application and selection process. The April 11, 2008 notice further stated that the pilot would begin operation at a limited number of additional airports to be announced by a future notice published in the                     **Federal Register**                    . This notice announces these additional airports and the dates on which operation is expected to begin.                 

All aspects of the program as described in the April 11 notice are still in effect except for the changes set forth in this notice. Applications to participate are currently being accepted and will be accepted for the duration of the pilot. Comments will be accepted throughout the duration of the pilot to the addresses provided in the April 11, 2008 notice. 

## New Airports and Dates of Operation

Additionally, although the Global Entry pilot is currently operational at Terminal 4 of John F. Kennedy International Airport, Jamaica, New York (JFK), it will become operational at the remaining terminals of that airport as well, also on or after August 1, 2008. The exact dates of the expansion of the Global Entry pilot to the individual airports will be announced at                     *http://www.cbp.gov*.
