    (b) Voiding of Line Release Transaction. Customs may void a Line 
Release transaction for the following reasons: Because of an 
examination, because a carrier transporting the Line Release merchandise 
is not a participant in the Land Border Carrier Initiative Program 
(LBCIP), or because a driver or conveyance is not authorized in 
accordance with the LBCIP. If this occurs, Customs will return the 
invoice to the carrier, and the entry filer, in order to enter 
merchandise, shall prepare and submit either a CF 3461 or 3461 
Alternate.
