Amendment to Cotton Research and Promotion Regulations Regarding Assessment of Imported Cotton-Containing Products

Riepilogo

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is amending the Cotton Board Rules and Regulations to allow for the continuation of collections on renumbered imported cotton-containing products as long as no change in the product's Harmonized Tariff Schedule (HTS) description occurs. Since renumbering of products by the U.S. Customs Service occurs rather frequently, providing for a continuation of assessment collection will prevent unnecessary and costly interruptions of the program.
