SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    In its continuing efforts to achieve more efficient use of its 
personnel, facilities, and resources, to provide better services to 
carriers, importers, and the public in general, Customs is changing the 
structure of its organization both in the field and at Headquarters.
    The current organizational structure is the result of 
reorganizations of the Customs Service by the President's 
Reorganization Plan No. 1 of 1965 and Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 
1973; Headquarters reorganizations of 1979 and 1990; and a Regional 
consolidation in 1982.
    The present reorganization is prompted by a number of changes 
within Customs and its operating environment: the tremendous growth in 
our workload; the size of the organization; the growth in 
administrative and overhead positions; changes in technology; new 
requirements placed on the agency; changes in trade and travel 
patterns; and unnecessary layers and barriers in the organization that 
have grown over time. Creating an organizational structure that 
addresses these current problems facilitates a move to process-oriented 
management, which allows adaptation to an environment of continuous 
change.
    In the Fall of 1993, Customs began a study of its organizational 
structure. During the study, comments and suggestions were received 
from Customs Headquarters and field offices, the Treasury Department, 
the National Treasury Employees Union, consultants, trade 
organizations, and other government agencies. At the completion of the 
study in the Spring of 1994, a report entitled ``People, Processes, & 
Partnerships: A Report on the Customs Service for the 21st Century'' 
was issued which recommended that Customs reduce its management layers 
in the field and reorganize its Headquarters functions. As a result of 
the study, Customs has determined to reorganize from the ground up, 
with the ports of entry serving as the foundation.
    Districts and regions will, for the most part, be eliminated. They 
will still exist as geographical descriptions for limited purposes such 
as for broker permits and certain cartage and lighterage purposes. The 
ports of entry now will be empowered with most of the functions and 
authority that have been held in the district and regional offices. 
Some ports will be designated as service ports, and will have a full 
range of cargo processing functions, including inspection, entry, 
collection, and verification. Headquarters will also be reorganized. 
The full reorganization will be effective at 11:59 p.m., EST on 
September 30, 1995.
    Customs is also creating twenty Customs Management Centers (CMCs), 
which will report to the Assistant Commissioner of Field Operations at 
Customs Headquarters. While these CMCs will provide oversight of the 
core business processes at the ports of entry within their respective 
geographic areas, they will not play a substantive role in the trade 
community's interaction with Customs. They will not be a formal level 
of appeal for external matters; their most important function will be 
to ensure that Customs delivers high quality uniform service at the 
ports.
    Five Strategic Trade Centers (STCs), each with a defined area of 
responsibility, are also created in the reorganization to enhance 
Customs capacity to address major trade issues, such as textile 
transshipments, valuation, antidumping, and the enforcement of 
intellectual property rights.
    Because the CMCs and STCs will not have direct contact with the 
public, Customs is not including any reference to these organizational 
entities in the regulations.
    The current regulations contain a significant number of references 
(over 2,000) to organizational entities which will no longer exist or 
which will have a different functional context on October 1, 1995. 
Accordingly, regulatory references to ``district directors'', 
``regional commissioners'', etc., are replaced with ``port directors'', 
``Assistant Commissioner'', etc., to reflect the new field and 
Headquarters structure of Customs and where decisional authority will 
now lie. The changes set forth in this document are nonsubstantive or 
merely procedural in nature.
    In a separate technical correction document published in today's 
Federal Register, changes are made throughout Chapter 1 of the Customs 
Regulations to reflect the reorganization. This document serves to 
revise certain sections contained in 15 Parts of the Customs 
Regulations (parts 4, 19, 24, 101, 103, 111, 112, 113, 118, 122, 127, 
141, 142, 146, and 174) which are either obsolete or require such 
extensive rewriting that they cannot be presented in the column format 
adopted in the other technical correction document.

Discussion of Amendments

    In Part 4, 13 footnotes (footnotes 2, 21, 29, 63, 64, 66, 68, 69, 
73, 90, 93, 94, and 100) are removed which reference the field term 
``collector'' of Customs, an obsolete position, and applicable 
statutory text is added where appropriate to Secs. 4.1(c)(2), 4.9(c), 
4.31(a), and 4.61(b)(6) and (23). Also, Sec. 4.14(c) is revised to 
remove references to regional field positions, and Sec. 4.24(f) is 
revised to replace references to Regional Commissioners with references 
to the Director of the service port (a new organizational entity, 
defined at Sec. 101.1) located nearest to the port of entry.
    In Part 19, a parenthetical reference to a definition of 
``district'' found at Sec. 112.1 is added to Sec. 19.44(g).
    In Part 24, a parenthetical reference to a definition of 
``district'' found at Sec. 111.1 is added to Sec. 24.1(a)(3)(i), and 
the third sentences of paragraph (a) and subparagraph (c)(1) of 
Sec. 24.4 are removed because there is no longer a necessity for 
importers to identify different ports in the application to defer 
payment of estimated import taxes on alcoholic beverages within 
districts, since districts are no longer part of Customs organization. 
Also, a similar requirement for district directors to notify other 
ports in his district is 

[[Page 50009]]
removed from Sec. 24.4(d)(1) for the same reason.
    In Part 101, Sec. 101.1 is amended by removing the definitions of 
the terms ``area'', ``Customs district'' and ``Customs region'', adding 
a definition for the term ``service port'', and revising the second, 
and third and fourth parenthetical sentences of the definition of 
``Port and port of entry'', which concerns the Virgin Islands. The 
section heading and headings and text to Sec. 101.3 paragraphs (a) and 
(b) are revised, the lists of Customs ports at Sec. 101.3(b) and 
Customs stations at Sec. 101.4(c) are rearranged to list the Customs 
ports alphabetically by State, rather than by regions, and in 
Sec. 101.3 a new list of Customs service ports similarly arranged by 
State is added. Lastly, Sec. 101.6(e) is amended by removing the 
parenthetical words ``and are approved by the Commissioner of 
Customs'', and by removing the last sentence, to reflect that port 
directors now set the hours for Customs services performed outside 
their port's offices.
    In Part 103, Sec. 103.1 is revised concerning the location of 
public reading rooms by removing the references to Customs Regions.
    In Part 111, definitions of ``district'', ``district director'' and 
``region'' are added at Sec. 111.1 to enable the current statutory 
broker licensing and permitting schemes to operate. Section 111.13(f), 
concerning broker examination notification, Sec. 111.19(d), concerning 
review of district directors' recommendations to grant/deny a waiver by 
the Regional Commissioner, and Sec. 111.23(e)(3), concerning 
notification between regions, are removed as unnecessary or no longer 
applicable, as is the provision in Sec. 111.45(c), concerning 
forwarding a copy of the revocation of broker's license to the district 
director.
    In Part 112, a definition of ``district'' is added at Sec. 112.1 to 
reflect that for certain purposes regarding carriage of merchandise the 
``district'' concept is still applicable. A parenthetical reference to 
the definition of ``district'' at Sec. 112.1 is added to Sec. 112.2(b).
    In Part 113, Sec. 113.37 is amended at paragraph (a) to remove a 
sentence concerning the Department distribution of a Circular to 
district directors, and at paragraph (g)(2) to revise the text 
regarding the filing of corporate surety power of attorney documents at 
district offices. Section 113.38 is amended to remove paragraph (c)(2) 
because with the removal of regional commissioners this provision no 
longer has application, and the subparagraphs thereafter ((c)(3)-(7)) 
are redesignated ((c)(2)-(6)). In Sec. 113.39(a), the last sentence of 
the introductory text is deleted for the same reason.
    In Part 118, a parenthetical reference to the definition of 
``district'' at Sec. 112.1 is added to Sec. 118.4(g) and (l).
    In Part 122, Sec. 122.14(e) is amended by removing the second 
sentence, which concerns appeals to the Commissioner of denials of 
landing rights, and Sec. 122.31(b) is amended by removing the third and 
fourth sentences, which concern the filing of scheduled airline 
schedules with Regional Commissioners and a 30-day notice requirement; 
none of these provisions are necessary under the reorganized field 
structure.
    In Part 127, Sec. 127.22 is revised to remove references to 
district headquarters ports.
    In Part 141, the provisions of Sec. 141.45 are revised concerning 
the filing of certified copies of power of attorney documents.
    In Part 142, Secs. 142.13 and 142.25 are similarly amended to move 
to new subparagraph (a)(4) what is currently set forth in paragraph 
(b). This change gives port directors the authority to require that 
entry summary documentation be filed and that estimated duties, if any, 
be deposited at the time of entry before the merchandise is released, 
if the importer is substantially or habitually delinquent in payment of 
Customs bills.
    In Part 146, a parenthetical reference to the definition of 
``district'' at Sec. 112.1 is added to Secs. 146.4(h) and 146.40(b).
    In Part 174, Sec. 174.1 is amended by removing paragraph (a), which 
pertains to district directors.

Comments

    Before adopting these interim regulations as final regulations, 
consideration will be given to any written comments timely submitted to 
Customs. Comments submitted will be available for public inspection in 
accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552), Sec. 1.4 
of the Treasury Department Regulations (31 CFR 1.4), and Sec. 103.11(b) 
of the Customs Regulations (19 CFR 103.11(b), on regular business days 
between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. at the Regulations Branch, 
U.S. Customs Service, 1099 14th Street, NW--Suite 4000, Washington, 
D.C.

Inapplicability of Notice and Delayed Effective Date Requirements, the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, and Executive Order 12866

    Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553 (a)(2) and (b)(B), public notice is 
inapplicable to these interim regulations because they concern matters 
relating to agency management and personnel. Further, inasmuch as these 
amendments merely advise the public of Customs new field and 
Headquarters organization which will be in effect October 1, 1995 (the 
beginning of the fiscal year), good cause exists for dispensing with 
notice and public procedure thereon as unnecessary. For the same 
reasons, it is determined that good cause exists under the provisions 
of 5 U.S.C. 553(d) (2) and (3) for dispensing with the requirement for 
a delayed effective date. Because no notice of proposed rulemaking is 
required for interim regulations, the provisions of the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) do not apply. This amendment 
does not meet the criteria for a ``significant regulatory action'' as 
specified in E.O. 12866.

* * * * *
    Service port. The term ``service port'' refers to a Customs 
location having a full range of cargo processing functions, including 
inspections, entry, collections, and verification. Port and port of 
entry. * * * The terms ``port'' and ``port of entry'' incorporate the 
geographical area under the jurisdiction of a port director. (The 
Customs ports in the Virgin Islands, although under the jurisdiction of 
the Secretary of the Treasury, have their own Customs laws (48 U.S.C. 
1406(i)). These ports, therefore, are outside the Customs territory of 
the United States and the ports thereof are not ``ports of entry'' 
within the meaning of these regulations).
    3. Section 101.3 is revised to read as follows:


Sec. 101.3  Customs service ports and ports of entry.

    (a) Designation of Customs field organization. The Deputy Assistant 
Secretary (Regulatory, Tariff, and Trade Enforcement), pursuant to 
authority delegated by the Secretary of the Treasury, is authorized to 
establish, rearrange or consolidate, and to discontinue Customs ports 
of entry as the needs of the Customs Service may require.
    (b) List of Ports of Entry and Service Ports. The following is a 
list of Customs Ports of Entry and Service Ports. Many of the ports 
listed were created by the President's message of March 3, 1913, 
concerning a reorganization of the Customs Service pursuant to the Act 
of August 24, 1912 (37 Stat. 434; 19 U.S.C. 1). Subsequent orders of 
the President or of the Secretary of the Treasury which affected these 
ports, or which created (or subsequently affected) additional ports, 
are cited following the name of the ports.
    (1) Customs ports of entry. A list of Customs ports of entry by 
State and the limits of each port are set forth below:
