{"abstract":"The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is announcing a delay in the full implementation of the APHIS Core Message Set in the Automated Commercial Environment/International Trade Data System (ACE/ITDS) for the electronic submission of data required by APHIS Animal Care, Biotechnology Regulatory Services, Plant Protection and Quarantine, and Veterinary Services. APHIS intended to begin applying Harmonized Tariff Schedule flags, which would alert filers who opted to submit electronically using ACE whether APHIS import data is or may be required, on August 3, 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, APHIS is delaying implementation until January 25, 2021. Full implementation of the message set will bring APHIS into compliance with the mandates of the Security and Accountability For Every Port Act of 2006 and Executive Order 13659. The information collected will enhance APHIS' ability to make data-driven policy decisions, improve risk analysis/assessments, and enhance ability to respond to changing pest/ disease conditions.","action":"Notice.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE","name":"Agriculture Department","id":12,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/agriculture-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/12","parent_id":null,"slug":"agriculture-department"},{"raw_name":"Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service","name":"Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service","id":22,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/animal-and-plant-health-inspection-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/22","parent_id":12,"slug":"animal-and-plant-health-inspection-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2020/09/28/2020-21289.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"85 FR 60756","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"APHIS will begin full implementation of the APHIS Core Message Set on January 25, 2021.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. APHIS-2017-0069"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2020-21289","effective_on":null,"end_page":60757,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2020/09/28/2020-21289.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/09/28/2020-21289/international-trade-data-system-timeline-for-enforcing-aphis-core-message-set-flags-in-the-automated","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2020-21289?publication_date=2020-09-28","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2020-09-28/2020-21289/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":2,"page_views":{"count":4881,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 16:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-09-28/pdf/2020-21289.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2020-21289.pdf?1601037927","publication_date":"2020-09-28","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2020/09/28/2020-21289.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[],"comments_count":0,"agency_id":"APHIS","comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=APHIS-2017-0069","supporting_documents_count":0,"docket_id":"APHIS-2017-0069","document_id":"APHIS-2017-0069-0006","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"International Trade Data System Full Implementation","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2020-09-30T03:30:10Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":60756,"subtype":null,"title":"International Trade Data System: Timeline for Enforcing APHIS Core Message Set Flags in the Automated Commercial Environment","toc_doc":"Timeline for Enforcing Core Message Set Flags in the Automated Commercial Environment","toc_subject":"International Trade Data System:\n","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":85}
