The Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has posted an updated DEA Implementation Guide to cbp.gov at the link below.

• DEA Implementation Guide V2.6, March 23, 2017
https://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/dea-implementation-guide-ace

Per DEA's final rule (81 FR 96992, and 82 FR 8688), trade filers must comply with DEA electronic filing requirements as of July 31, 2017. CBP will begin enforcing DEA's requirements on August 1, 2017.

Summary of Changes (See Change Log for Detail)
This update requires the removal of the requirement to upload a DEA document into the DIS. This eliminates the “Y” in position 17 of the PG01 record.
