Title: Customs-Trade Partnership
against Terrorism (C–TPAT) and the
Trusted Trader Program.
OMB Number: 1651–0077.
Abstract: The C–TPAT Program is
designed to safeguard the world’s trade
industry from terrorists and smugglers
by prescreening its participants. The C–
TPAT Program applies to United States
importers, customs brokers,
consolidators, port and terminal
operators, carriers, and foreign
manufacturers.
Respondents apply to participate in
C–TPAT using an on-line application at:
https://ctpat.cbp.dhs.gov/
Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fHome.aspx.

of company officers. This collection of
information is authorized by the SAFE
Port Act (P.L. 109–347).
CBP proposes to establish a collection
of information for a new program
known as the Trusted Trader Program.
The Trusted Trader Program will
involve a unification of supply chain
security aspects of the current C–TPAT
Program and the internal controls of the
Importer Self-Assessment (ISA) Program
to integrate supply chain security and
trade compliance. The goals of the
Trusted Trader Program are to
strengthen security by leveraging the C–
TPAT supply chain requirements and
validation, identify low-risk trade
entities for supply chain security and
trade compliance, and increase the
overall efficiency of trade by segmenting
risk and processing by account. This
Program applies to importer participants
who have satisfied C–TPAT supply
chain security and trade compliance
requirements. The Trusted Trader
application will include questions about
the following:
Name and contact information for the
applicant;
Business information including
business type, CBP Bond information,
and number of employees;
Information about the applicant’s
Supply Chain Security Profile; and
Trade Compliance Profile and
Operating Procedures of the applicant.
Respondents will apply to participate
in the Trusted Trader Program using an
on-line application available through
the C–TPAT portal. The draft Trusted
Trader Program application may be
viewed at: http://www.cbp.gov/sites/
default/files/documents/
Trusted%20Trader%20Application.pdf.
After an importer obtains Trusted
Trader Program membership, the
importer will be required to submit an
Annual Notification Letter to CBP
confirming that they are continuing to
meet the requirements of the Trusted
Trader Program. This letter should
include: personnel changes that impact
the Trusted Trader Program;
organizational and procedural changes;
a summary of risk assessment and selftesting results; a summary of post-entry
amendments and/or disclosures made to
CBP; and any importer activity changes
within the last 12-month period.
Current Actions: This submission is
being made to revise the current
information collection by adding the
Trusted Trader Application and Annual
Notification Letter.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
A. Section 8 Project-Based Voucher
Assistance—June 25, 2014, Final Rule
On June 25, 2014, at 79 FR 36146,
HUD published a final rule that
amended the regulations governing the
Section 8 Project-Based Voucher (PBV)
program, largely due to changes made to
the PBV program by the Housing and
Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (Pub. L.
110–289, approved July 30, 2008)
(HERA). HERA made comprehensive
and significant reforms to several HUD
programs, including HUD’s Public
Housing, Section 8 Tenant-Based
Voucher, and PBV programs. On
November 24, 2008, at 73 FR 71037,
HUD published a notice that provided
information about the applicability of
certain HERA provisions to these
programs. The notice identified: (1)
those statutory provisions that were selfexecuting and required no action on the
part of HUD for the changes to be
implemented; and (2) those statutory
provisions that require new regulations
or regulatory changes by HUD for the
HERA provisions to be implemented.
The notice also offered the opportunity
for public comment on the guidance
provided.
HUD followed the November 2008
notice with a proposed rule published
on May 15, 2012, at 77 FR 28742, that
proposed to establish, in regulation, the
reforms made by HERA solely to the
Section 8 Tenant-Based Voucher and
PBV programs as discussed in the
November 2008 notice, to make other
related changes to the regulations, and
to further solicit public comment. The
final rule published on June 25, 2014,
conformed the regulations of the Section
8 Tenant-Based Voucher and PBV
programs to the statutory program
changes made by HERA, made other
related changes to these regulations as
discussed in the May 2012 proposed
rule, and made further changes to the
two voucher program regulations as a
result of issues raised by public
comment and certain clarifying changes
determined needed by HUD.
One of the changes made by the June
25, 2014, final rule pertained to labor
standards. In the final rule, HUD
updated the reference to labor standards
provisions that are applicable to
assistance under the PBV program to
remove the reference to labor standards
‘‘applicable to an Agreement’’ covering
nine or more assisted units and
substitute a reference to labor standards
