The enacted SAFE Port Act contains a C-TPAT subtitle. Section 218 directs DHS/CBP to plan and carry out a one-year voluntary pilot using third-party entities to validate C-TPAT participants.

The promise was to support creating a pilot program to strengthen C-TPAT. The enacted 2006 SAFE Port Act created a C-TPAT third-party validation pilot, satisfying the substantive policy outcome.
