Anti-Trust Reminder
Paul Durbak, recently retired CBP Officer, Chicago, now in private consulting. Thanked him for his approach in dealing with AES filers – issuing warnings to get them to file correctly, instead of issuing penalties. He discussed his methodology in
N/A using the CBP targeting system (ATS) in working the port of export issues. There are still interpretive differences between port of export being the border crossing city vs. the place where cargo is loaded on the conveyance. He believes that this is being addressed in the next Census NPRM. He did advise that they do receive directives from CBP HQ to check on certain things and that they are able to run queries to check their own local concerns. Paul Durbak’s new business information is: email: act2exoprt@gmail.com, tel: 630-429-9167 (Note that this is a correct telephone number – he provided incorrect number during our call.
Census NPRM: Joe Cortez doesn’t know when it will come out. Continue to monitor
Census staff: Omari Wooden is now the Senior Foreign Trade
Advisor replacing Dick Preuss who has just retired. The
Ombudsman position will remain unfilled due to budget issues.
