CSMS MESSAGE 11-000081 DESCRIBES THE SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT THAT WILL BE EFFECTIVE ON 08/01/2011.
CSMS MESSAGE 11-000081 INDICATED THAT THERE WOULD BE SEVEN TARIFF NUMBERS THAT WOULD NOT INCLUDE A ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE TO INDICATE THE ‘COW’S MILK SOLIDS CONTENT’. THE FEDERAL REGISTER WITH THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT RULES DID NOT INDICATE THAT THESE TARIFF NUMBERS SHOULD HAVE A ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAD TWO UNITS OF MEASURE ASSOCIATED WITH THEM. THE SEVEN TARIFF NUMBERS LISTED WITHOUT THE ‘CKG’ INDICATION ARE THE FOLLOWING:
0401100000
0401305000
0401307500
2105001000
2105002000
2202902400
2202902800
CBP HAS DECIDED TO ADD A THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE ‘CKG’ TO THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS. THE ADDING OF THE ‘CKG’ UNIT OF MEASURE TO THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS SHOULD ASSIST THE TRADE IN IMPLEMENTING THE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT FOR THESE TARIFF NUMBERS.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE, THE USTIC TARIFF BOOK AND TARIFF WEBSITE WILL NOT INDICATE THE THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE FOR THE ABOVE TARIFF NUMBERS. THE THIRD UNIT OF MEASURE IS BEING ADDED TO THE CBP TARIFF DATABASE TO ASSIST THE TRADE IN IMPLEMENTING THE AGRICULTURAL MARKET SERVICE DAIRY FEE ASSESSMENT.
