….now that the OMB (Office of Management and Budget) has given them authority to move forward:

Customs is expected to move quickly to issue the final rule. The rule has been under review for months by the administration. The delay has forced Customs officials to remain silent on the issue while OMB deliberated, and left members of the trade industry with nothing to do but speculate.

Leaders of the House Ways and Means Committee have urged Customs and Border Protection to take an intermediary step that would allow the 10+2 rule to be tested in a pilot program before it becomes final.

The word from one of my 3PL contacts is that they expect long, gradual implementation. I hope they are right.
