Background

    On July 23, 2013, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 
published in the Federal Register a document announcing modifications 
to the National Customs Automation Program (NCAP) tests concerning 
document imaging, known as the Document Image System (DIS) test, and 
entry capability, known as the Simplified Entry (SE) test. 78 FR 44142. 
That document contained an error in Section III. entitled, ``Documents 
Supported in the Second Phase of the Test'' regarding the description 
of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) document 
Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) Form 586. PPQ Form 586 serves as 
both the application for a permit, and once approved, the permit 
itself. This correction is being issued to clarify that only the 
approved permit may be transmitted via the DIS.

Correction

    In the Federal Register of July 23, 2013, in the document at 78 FR 
44142, on page 44144, in the first column, correct the description of 
PPQ Form 586 to read: PPQ Form 586, Permit To Transit Plants and/or 
Plant Products, Plant Pests, and/or Associated Soil through the United 
States.

    Dated: August 23, 2013.
