date of the written notice of action to suspend or revoke participation 

as provided in Sec. Sec.  143.6 and 143.7, the suspension or revocation 

of participation shall not take effect until the appeal is decided, 

except in those cases where the Director, Trade Compliance, or the 

Director, User Support Services Division, respectively, determines that 

participation was obtained through fraud or the misstatement of a 

material fact, or that continued participation would pose a potential 

risk of significant harm to the integrity and functioning of the system. 

The Customs officer who receives the appeal shall stamp the date of 

receipt of the appeal and the stamped date is the date of receipt for 

purposes of the appeal. The Assistant Commissioner shall inform the 

participant of the date of receipt and the date that a response is due 

under this paragraph. The Assistant Commissioner shall render his 

decision to the participant, in writing, stating his reasons therefor, 

by letter mailed within 30 working days following receipt of the appeal, 

unless this period is extended with due notification to the participant.
