Sec.  118.3  Written agreement.



    The applicant tentatively selected to operate a CES must sign a 

written agreement with Customs before commencing operations. Failure to 

execute a written agreement with Customs in a timely manner will result 

in the revocation of that applicant's tentative selection and may result 

in tentative selection of another applicant or republication of the 

notice soliciting applications. In addition to the provisions described 

elsewhere in this part, the agreement will specify the duration of the 

authority to operate the CES. That duration will be not less than three 

years nor more than six years. Such agreements cannot be transferred, 

sold, inherited, or conveyed in any manner. At the expiration of the 

agreement, an operator wishing to reapply may do so pursuant to this 

part and his application will be considered de novo.
