               CHAPTER I--DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
 
PART 241_APPREHENSION AND DETENTION OF ALIENS ORDERED REMOVED--Table
 
 Subpart B_Deportation of Excluded Aliens (for Hearings Commenced Prior 
                            to April 1, 1997)
 
Sec.  241.24  Notice to transportation line of alien's exclusion.

    (a) An excluded alien shall, immediately or as promptly as the 
circumstances permit, be offered for deportation to the master, 
commanding officer, purser, person in charge, agent, owner, or consignee 
of the vessel or aircraft on which the alien is to be deported, as 
determined by the district 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.
