Search Primer

Term list: Separate terms with spaces, not commas or semicolons.

Multi-word term: Place inside quotes to ensure an exact match (e.g. "universal service fund").

Acronyms: Use all capital letters to ensure the search is not looking for that letter sequence instead.(e.g. NTIA).

Required term: If a term must be included in any resulting articles, prefix it with a plus sign (e.g., "FCC chairman" +Pai).

Excluded term: If a term should be excluded from any articles being found, prefix it with a minus sign (e.g., FCC -Carr).

Simplest form: Use the simplest form of a term (e.g. "satellite" instead of "satellites" or "impose" instead of "imposed").

CBP to Limit Use of Continuous Bonds by Debarred Entities
May 24, 2021 by Tim Warren|Top News

People or companies that are debarred or suspended by CBP aren't allowed to use a continuous bond for customs activity "unless a continuous bond is the only form of bond acceptable for that activity," CBP said in a May 21 CSMS message. Effective May 11, Acting CBP Commissioner Troy Miller "revoked the authority of all CBP officials to permit a person who is suspended or debarred by CBP to meet the bond requirements of any customs activity using a continuous bond, for the duration of that person’s suspension or debarment," CBP said. For entities debarred or suspend by other federal agencies, "the Office of Trade, Trade Policy and Programs, is authorized to evaluate and decide, either categorically or on a case-by-case basis," whether the use of a continuous bond is allowed.
