acl: clausal modifier of noun
The acl relation is used for relative clauses. We annotate a modified noun phrase as a head of a predicate of subordinate clause.

# visual-style 7 fgColor:white
# visual-style 3 bgColor:blue

It is possible that noun modified by a relative clause is not expressed in the main clause. In this case, the acl relation is between two predicates.
