CBP Says Rail Line Release Entry Bank Users Risk Manifest Failure with Reserves Under 1%

CBP said when rail line release entry banks fall to 1% remaining, train manifests may fail. This will result in cargo disruptions and may force rail carriers to remove shipments from inbound trains, CBP said in a CSMS message. CBP recommended that at all ports filers retain a sufficient reserve to operate for 1 week at normal volume and that to monitor usage of these entry numbers to determine when you fall below this threshold. Self filers should contact CBP at the port to verify the status of their rail entry banks.
