Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "China import").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., +CBP).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., -ruling).

Singular form: Always use the singular form when doing multi-word terms (e.g. "russian export control" instead of "russian export controls").

Shortest word form: When you have different word forms in a quoted (multi-word) term, you want to only include the shortest version if it is the last part of the expression (e.g., "entity list" instead of "entity listing" or "entity listed").

CBP and Mexico's Servicio de Administracion Tributaria (SAT) will jointly inspect cargo at the Otay Mesa Cargo Facility under the Unified Cargo Inspection Pilot starting in October, CBP said on Sept. 20. The joint inspections are meant to reduce wait times by eliminating the need for separate inspections, CBP said. The pilot program is currently implemented at five other locations, it said. “I envision that this program will provide a more efficient inspection process while upholding our mission to protect the borders,” said Pete Flores, director of field operations for CBP in San Diego.

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau signed a memorandum of understanding to take part in the Commercial Targeting and Analysis Center, CBP said in a Sept. 19 news release. The CTAC, which includes CBP and Homeland Security Investigations, is a multiagency enforcement partnership. “The CTAC stands as a glowing example of how interagency collaboration as ‘one U.S. Government at the border’ can better serve the American public,” said Brenda Smith, executive assistant commissioner for the CBP Office of Trade. “CTAC collaboration, which is fortified by the progress of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Single Window, allows for better management of resources and more efficient, streamlined import processing.”
