Background

    In Treasury Decisions 95-77 and 95-78, both published in this issue 
of the Federal Register, Customs amended its regulations to reflect its 
new organizational structure. Concerning this reorganization, Customs 
stated that, although the concepts of districts and regions would, for 
the most part, be eliminated, they would still exist for certain 
limited purposes concerning broker permits and cartage and lighterage 
licensing. Accordingly, in Sec. 111.1, definitions of ``district'' and 
``district director'' were added to enable the current statutory 
Customs broker licensing and permit schemes to operate, and in 
Sec. 112.1, a definition of ``district'' was added for certain purposes 
regarding the cartage and lighterage of merchandise by parties excepted 
from obtaining a license to do so. Both of these sections provided that 
Customs would publish a listing of each district, and the ports 
thereunder, on or before October 1, 1995, and whenever updated. This 
document constitutes the referenced publication.
    In the table below, arranged alphabetically by State or other 
geographic location, each of the service ports listed in the left 
column represents a ``district'' for purposes of Secs. 111.1 and 112.1, 
and the ports of entry listed to the right of each service port 
represent the ports within that ``district.''
