WHILE HTSUS SUBHEADINGS ARE PROVIDED FOR CONVENIENCE AND CUSTOMS PURPOSES, THE WRITTEN DESCRIPTION OF THE SCOPE OF THIS INVESTIGATION IS DISPOSITIVE.

NOTE 1: “‘PAPERBOARD' REFERS TO COATED PAPER THAT IS HEAVIER, THICKER AND MORE RIGID THAN COATED PAPER WHICH OTHERWISE MEETS THE PRODUCT DESCRIPTION. IN THE CONTEXT OF COATED PAPER, PAPERBOARD TYPICALLY IS REFERRED TO AS ‘COVER,' TO DISTINGUISH IT FROM ‘TEXT.'”

NOTE 2: ONE OF THE KEY MEASUREMENTS OF ANY GRADE OF PAPER IS BRIGHTNESS. GENERALLY SPEAKING, THE BRIGHTER THE PAPER THE BETTER THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE PAPER AND THE INK. BRIGHTNESS IS MEASURED USING A GE REFLECTANCE SCALE, WHICH MEASURES THE REFLECTION OF LIGHT OFF OF A GRADE OF PAPER. ONE IS THE LOWEST REFLECTION, OR WHAT WOULD BE GIVEN TO A TOTALLY BLACK GRADE, AND 100 IS THE BRIGHTEST MEASURED GRADE.

NOTE 3: IN MESSAGE NO.9307208 DATED 11/03/2009 THE WORD “PAPERBOARD” WAS INADVERTENTLY OMITTED FROM THE DEFINITION OF COATED PAPER. PAPERBOARD IS PROPERLY INCLUDED IN THE WRITTEN DESCRIPTION ABOVE.
