director, with a written notice specifying the cause of exclusion, the 

class of travel in which such alien arrived and is to be deported, and 

with the return of any documentation that will assist in effecting his 

or her deportation. If special care and attention are required, the 

provisions of Sec. 241.10 shall apply.

    (b) Failure of the carrier to accept for removal an alien who has 

been ordered excluded and deported shall result in the carrier being 

assessed any costs incurred by the Service for detention after the 

carrier's failure to accept the alien for removal including the cost of 

any transportation. The User Fee Account shall not be assessed for 

expenses incurred because of the carrier's violation of the provisions 

of section 237 of the Act and this paragraph. The Service will, at the 

carrier's option, retain custody of the excluded alien for an additional 

7 days beyond the date of the deportation/exclusion order. If, after the 

third day of this additional 7-day period, the carrier has not made all 

the necessary transportation arrangements for the excluded alien to be 

returned to his or her point of embarkation by the end of the additional 

7-day period, the Service will make the arrangements and bill the 

carrier for its costs.
