Denial of Commercial Availability Request under the Andean Trade Promotion and Drug Eradication Act (ATPDEA)

概要

On August 23, 2004, the Chairman of CITA received a petition from Textiles Erre Emme Ltda. of Bogota, Colombia, alleging that certain polyester monofilament texturized, raw, white yarn, of denier 20D/F1, classified in subheading 5402.33.30 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), for use in women's and children's apparel, cannot be supplied by the domestic industry in commercial quantities in a timely manner, and requesting that such apparel made from such yarn be eligible for preferential treatment under the ATPDEA. Based on currently available information, CITA has determined that these subject yarns can be supplied by the domestic industry in commercial quantities in a timely manner and therefore denies the request.
