CBP SPACE Act
This bill amends customs fee rules to allow U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to adjust merchandise processing fees to cover capital costs like equipment upgrades and facility construction/maintenance at sea ports of entry. It requires CBP to submit annual reports detailing how fee proceeds are used for port infrastructure and outlining remaining capital needs. The bill also prohibits CBP from requiring sea ports to provide administrative, training, or recreational facilities for CBP operations. These provisions aim to improve CBP's funding transparency and infrastructure planning at border ports.
