Show the answer and walk-through

CBP's answer: C. C: CBP Officer Evans of the Port of Baltimore

Section 18.1(c) lists who may file a transportation entry: the carrier or its authorized agent that brings the merchandise to the origination port, the carrier or its agent that will accept it for transport under its bond, or any person with sufficient interest in the merchandise. Shark Airlines (the importing carrier), Exact Trucking (the bonded carrier) and Baltimore Quick Printers (the consignee with an interest) qualify. A CBP officer is not on the list, so C is the party without authority.

The carrier, or authorized agent of the carrier, that brings the merchandise to the origination port 19 CFR 18.1(c)(1)
Any person or the authorized agent of any person, who has a sufficient interest in the merchandise 19 CFR 18.1(c)(3)
