DHS confirms no delay for “10+2”

The Importer Security Filing regulation went into effect on Monday as scheduled.
   The Obama administration last week said it's taking a sweeping look at all leftover Bush administration regulations, raising questions about the status of the pending ISF rule. But the Department of Homeland Security removed any doubt in a statement, saying it would not hold up the new information requirements on maritime cargo.

   The 10 data requirements from importers are due 24 hours before vessel loading overseas and the two carrier requirements at various intervals thereafter. The interim final rule is known as '10+2.'
   DHS and the White House decided to proceed with the rule because the rulemaking process followed proper procedures, there was a 75-day comment period and the interim rule is now subject to an additional six-month public period, the statement said.
   Customs and Border Protection, which is managing the program, will work to improve the filing system and iron out any challenges for industry in advance of full enforcement one year from now. ' Eric Kulisch
