DHS/CBP/PIA-0037 Pre-Arrival Readiness Evaluation (PARE) Pilot

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is committed to working with state, local, tribal, territorial, and law enforcement entities to secure U.S. borders and work with international governments and organizations to facilitate legal travel and trade. CBP Headquarters and the Buffalo CBP Field Office, in cooperation with the Port of Buffalo and the Buffalo and Fort Erie Public Bridge Authority (PBA), are supporting the deployment of the Pre-Arrival Readiness Evaluation (PARE) pilot program. PARE is an automated traffic management system for commercial vehicles departing Canada, which will be used to optimize traffic flow on the Peace Bridge during a planned three-year bridge resurfacing project. CBP is publishing this Privacy Impact Assessment to provide notice of its cooperative agreement to work with PBA to exchange information of commercial vehicles to determine if commercial fees have been paid and travel documentation has been properly filed to further the efficient movement of commercial vehicles and cargo.
