mandatory. The estimated average burden associated with this collection of information is 30 minutes per respondent plus 10 minutes record
keeping depending on individual circumstances. Comments concerning the accuracy of this burden estimate and suggestions for reducing this
burden should be directed to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Asset Management, Washington, DC 20229, and to the Office of Management
