TTB Joins Commercial Targeting and Analysis Center
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau signed a memorandum of understanding to take part in the Commercial Targeting and Analysis Center, CBP said in a Sept. 19 news release. The CTAC, which includes CBP and Homeland Security Investigations, is a multiagency enforcement partnership. “The CTAC stands as a glowing example of how interagency collaboration as ‘one U.S. Government at the border’ can better serve the American public,” said Brenda Smith, executive assistant commissioner for the CBP Office of Trade. “CTAC collaboration, which is fortified by the progress of the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE) Single Window, allows for better management of resources and more efficient, streamlined import processing.”
