RE: The tariff classification of pelletized slag from France.
Dear Mr Armbruster:
In your letter dated May 22, 1990 you requested a tariff
classification ruling on behalf of your client, Clawson Concrete
Company.
According to your ruling request, the pelletized slag is
composed of calcium oxide, silicon dioxide, magnesium oxide and
other oxides and is used as an aggregate in the manufacture of
cement.
Based on the above information, the applicable subheading
for the pelletized slag will be 3823.90.3900, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for chemical
mixtures not elsewhere provided for. This subheading is duty
free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
