No ABI Filers Have Applied for M1 Pilot
One of the categories for MI pilot participation is ABI (Automated Broker Interface) participants. CBP states that it has not yet heard from any of the ABI filers, and encourages anyone who is an ABI filer to apply to participate.
CBP has previously stated that it plans to pilot M1 in February 2011 and deploy it in spring 2011. (See ITT’s Online Archives or 11/18/10 news, 10111820, for recent BP summary. See ITT’s Online Archives or 10/20/10 news, 10102007, for BP summary of CBP’s notice on applying to participate in the M1 pilot.)
M1 to Offer New MMM Reports That Will be Updated Every Two Hours
With the deployment of e-Manifest: Ocean and Rail (M1), the TAO Update states that new Multi-Modal Manifest (MMM) Reports will be available to the trade community that refresh every two hours.
The two hour refresh reports will include manifest data that has been created or changed within the past two hours. They will contain data for the last 30 days only, and will display all versions of the bills of lading.
The two hour refresh reports for brokers include:

- MMM 9016 Equipment Detail
- MMM 9017 Manifest Detail
- MMM 9021 BOL Detail
- MMM 9022 BOL Status

These will be in addition to the manifest reports that refresh every 24 hours.
