aware I'm assigned to the Machinery and 597f672b-87e6-4130-8b8e-be3003618cfa-1 00:01:06.701 --> 00:01:10.407 Manufacturing Materials branch of the National Commodity 597f672b-87e6-4130-8b8e-be3003618cfa-2 00:01:10.407 --> 00:01:14.243 Specialist division, but to those of you that are catching 597f672b-87e6-4130-8b8e-be3003618cfa-3 00:01:14.243 --> 00:01:18.534 one of my webinars for the first time, I oversee a few Chapter 84 597f672b-87e6-4130-8b8e-be3003618cfa-4 00:01:18.534 --> 00:01:19.120 headings. 57b28380-b4cd-44c8-8000-9b9c02c7580c-0 00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:27.282 I oversee the pump headings of 8413 and 8414, bearings in 8482, 57b28380-b4cd-44c8-8000-9b9c02c7580c-1 00:01:27.282 --> 00:01:35.165 valves of 8481 for transmitting mechanisms of 8483, and cooling 57b28380-b4cd-44c8-8000-9b9c02c7580c-2 00:01:35.165 --> 00:01:39.599 machines of headings 8415 and 8418. fc553a35-33d2-45d9-a7c4-a856e2ec9401-0 00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.956 Now handling these headings, I see questions concerning the fc553a35-33d2-45d9-a7c4-a856e2ec9401-1 00:01:44.956 --> 00:01:49.003 classification of items that are used in machines, mechanical fc553a35-33d2-45d9-a7c4-a856e2ec9401-2 00:01:49.003 --> 00:01:50.440 systems or assemblies. 963ba440-977a-4058-9026-5312873414d2-0 00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:55.383 And just the other day I was asked how to classify a cover 963ba440-977a-4058-9026-5312873414d2-1 00:01:55.383 --> 00:01:59.881 for a motor used in a pump assembly or even how to classify 963ba440-977a-4058-9026-5312873414d2-2 00:01:59.881 --> 00:02:02.880 a pump using used in a pressure washer. 08fbd65e-8f06-4a6c-920f-d95ad7ff6d5b-0 00:02:03.520 --> 00:02:08.186 And so This is why I decided to do a two-part webinar on Note 2 08fbd65e-8f06-4a6c-920f-d95ad7ff6d5b-1 00:02:08.186 --> 00:02:12.488 to section 16, which began last year with looking into the 08fbd65e-8f06-4a6c-920f-d95ad7ff6d5b-2 00:02:12.488 --> 00:02:15.040 header of note two and sub note A. 53f2bd33-b9f2-4a0f-8f5d-09847d510301-0 00:02:15.880 --> 00:02:20.371 This year, we continue to look at Sub Note B Machinery falls 53f2bd33-b9f2-4a0f-8f5d-09847d510301-1 00:02:20.371 --> 00:02:25.083 within the scope of Section 16, and therefore Note 2 to Section 53f2bd33-b9f2-4a0f-8f5d-09847d510301-2 00:02:25.083 --> 00:02:29.428 16 is something we have to consider when classifying items 53f2bd33-b9f2-4a0f-8f5d-09847d510301-3 00:02:29.428 --> 00:02:30.680 used in machines. 2ce7191f-6b7d-4460-916f-b304b225921a-0 00:02:31.640 --> 00:02:36.000 And just to clarify, this note also applies to Chapter 80. b6cea6f2-0d07-453d-ab79-6af3265cea2e-0 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.591 This note applies to both Chapters 84 and 85, but we'll b6cea6f2-0d07-453d-ab79-6af3265cea2e-1 00:02:39.591 --> 00:02:43.440 only be looking at this note from a Chapter 84 perspective. 759ad7c2-fef7-4aae-baf4-6e7fe838ea79-0 00:02:43.880 --> 00:02:47.085 Most of Chapter 85 concerns electronics and electrical 759ad7c2-fef7-4aae-baf4-6e7fe838ea79-1 00:02:47.085 --> 00:02:50.640 equipment, which is handled by another team in the division. 99ab2083-b447-429d-8479-5e2e161f26da-0 00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:55.340 Also, before we begin, if you find you have any questions as I 99ab2083-b447-429d-8479-5e2e161f26da-1 00:02:55.340 --> 00:02:58.693

just wanted to take a moment to share the course 8e6c8e5c-1519-4407-9929-b5a066e6cfe0-1 00:03:17.872 --> 00:03:21.554 identifier information in case, in case you missed it, it's also 8e6c8e5c-1519-4407-9929-b5a066e6cfe0-2 00:03:21.554 --> 00:03:25.066 in the chat box and we'll also mentioned it at the end of the 8e6c8e5c-1519-4407-9929-b5a066e6cfe0-3 00:03:25.066 --> 00:03:25.520 webinar. 03843c08-7e5f-4eb5-8134-f6d941dcafb6-0 00:03:32.100 --> 00:03:35.260 Here are CBP and O TS mission statements. d8684a6d-eaed-4102-b25f-3133cdd69bc5-0 00:03:35.580 --> 00:03:38.576 You can see

ccfd04be-4f83-49cf-bbc0-3b7040bc4df6-0 00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:37.168 Here's our second disclaimer and it's reminding us that today's ccfd04be-4f83-49cf-bbc0-3b7040bc4df6-1 00:04:37.168 -->

90f8a445-1e43-4f70-9f4b-ba6f5a1996d4-1 00:04:53.329 --> 00:04:53.760 pieces. 3cbbf566-3198-4c0c-b7f6-1bae68422c39-0 00:04:54.520 --> 00:04:58.377 Classification can be a complicated process, and while 3cbbf566-3198-4c0c-b7f6-1bae68422c39-1 00:04:58.377 --> 00:05:02.304 webinars like this one are helpful, we do not recommend 3cbbf566-3198-4c0c-b7f6-1bae68422c39-2 00:05:02.304 --> 00:05:05.040 solely relying on these presentations. c1ec5993-a6d4-43dc-8a40-cc211a1cb612-0 00:05:10.280 --> 00:05:13.780 In fact, if you have a specific question about a product that's c1ec5993-a6d4-43dc-8a40-cc211a1cb612-1 00:05:13.780 --> 00:05:17.171 for a perspective shipment, we recommend submitting a request c1ec5993-a6d4-43dc-8a40-cc211a1cb612-2 00:05:17.171 --> 00:05:18.320 for a binding ruling. fbd2ec59-e5b8-43c5-b4d2-df2bea3bf71a-0 00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.447 That request can be mailed in, but submitting the request fbd2ec59-e5b8-43c5-b4d2-df2bea3bf71a-1 00:05:22.447 --> 00:05:24.880 electronically streamlines the process. 4e2121e2-78d6-43cc-bd93-776da228020a-0 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:28.040 And here's the link to submit such a request. 7b5abc7b-842c-4f29-8d8d-874d9e798e72-0 00:05:28.960 --> 00:05:32.535 If you're hesitant about submitting it, I would just 7b5abc7b-842c-4f29-8d8d-874d9e798e72-1 00:05:32.535 --> 00:05:36.651 remind everyone that the process is free and the template is 7b5abc7b-842c-4f29-8d8d-874d9e798e72-2 00:05:36.651 --> 00:05:40.901 pretty easy to navigate through, and if it concerns a topic we 7b5abc7b-842c-4f29-8d8d-874d9e798e72-3 00:05:40.901 --> 00:05:45.219 can rule on, we will provide a binding ruling within 20 days if 7b5abc7b-842c-4f29-8d8d-874d9e798e72-4 00:05:45.219 --> 00:05:49.200 it's for a designated trade partner and otherwise 30 days. 97ac5dc8-cff6-4a0d-83e4-c70efaf98603-0 00:05:51.200 --> 00:05:54.300 I do want to mention that it's always best to submit as much 97ac5dc8-cff6-4a0d-83e4-c70efaf98603-1 00:05:54.300 --> 00:05:55.520 information as possible. 9bf09db9-c243-47d0-a0a7-8d235ed58dde-0 00:05:56.000 --> 00:05:59.425 And if you're not sure of what that means as you're going 9bf09db9-c243-47d0-a0a7-8d235ed58dde-1 00:05:59.425 --> 00:06:03.088 through the information that you'll be presenting to us, just 9bf09db9-c243-47d0-a0a7-8d235ed58dde-2 00:06:03.088 --> 00:06:06.395 ask yourself, does the information describe the good in 9bf09db9-c243-47d0-a0a7-8d235ed58dde-3 00:06:06.395 --> 00:06:07.400 the clearest way? 82ca8617-bbcd-43ec-83b7-0aee0cae27de-0 00:06:07.760 --> 00:06:12.162 For instance, does the information explain what the 82ca8617-bbcd-43ec-83b7-0aee0cae27de-1 00:06:12.162 --> 00:06:17.327 product is, how it works, what it does, where it's used, and 82ca8617-bbcd-43ec-83b7-0aee0cae27de-2 00:06:17.327 --> 00:06:19.360 even what is it made of? e18936d0-3e3b-4a8f-9dd6-3323ea407d48-0 00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:24.036 Because you have to keep in mind reviewing the information from e18936d0-3e3b-4a8f-9dd6-3323ea407d48-1 00:06:24.036 --> 00:06:25.280 an external perspective. 835d29bf-73f8-4a17-a55e-7d6af0e3dd3c-0 00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.549 If we do not have enough information, we'll issue a 835d29bf-73f8-4a17-a55e-7d6af0e3dd3c-1 00:06:28.549 --> 00:06:31.678 letter that asks For more information, and this just 835d29bf-73f8-4a17-a55e-7d6af0e3dd3c-2 00:06:31.678 --> 00:06:32.800 delays the process. 2a3a66bd-c07f-4148-bb9f-616d59772218-0 00:06:38.760 --> 00:06:43.040 So here we have the note visible in its entirety. f1d742d9-7cb6-4f2b-873a-9570bf9d6687-0 00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:47.040 But before we look at Note 2, let's think again. 88c099e4-d994-4ec1-9f41-92eff8be46b5-0 00:06:47.480 --> 00:06:49.920 Why do we need to give this note consideration? 3cffa2df-0e6c-4c83-b268-3317faf536fa-0 00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:55.324 Well, the classification of merchandise under the Harmonized 3cffa2df-0e6c-4c83-b268-3317faf536fa-1 00:06:55.324 --> 00:06:58.376 Tariff Schedule of the United States is governed by the 3cffa2df-0e6c-4c83-b268-3317faf536fa-2 00:06:58.376 --> 00:07:00.120 general rules of interpretation. d72430ff-d7e7-42ce-8742-e216a912c426-0 00:07:00.320 --> 00:07:02.960 The GR is taken in order. 372b9abd-8301-4dd7-ae6f-e42f5a5bd500-0 00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:07.737 GRI 1 requires that classification be determined 372b9abd-8301-4dd7-ae6f-e42f5a5bd500-1 00:07:07.737 --> 00:07:11.596 according to the terms of the headings and any relative 372b9abd-8301-4dd7-ae6f-e42f5a5bd500-2 00:07:11.596 --> 00:07:13.320 section or chapter notes. b0835ce5-4717-4c5d-adc9-74691383421b-0 00:07:14.280 --> 00:07:19.040 Therefore, note two of section 16 is a legal note. 807f3ad8-b375-428d-a72b-bf3ebd1370d4-0 00:07:24.080 --> 00:07:28.496 And so here's the aspect of the note we'll be learning today, 807f3ad8-b375-428d-a72b-bf3ebd1370d4-1 00:07:28.496 --> 00:07:29.280 Sub note B. 8e10f2ab-e54b-472c-9626-cb4a7b726f58-0 00:07:35.640 --> 00:07:39.653 However, prior to applying any sub note of note two, we must 8e10f2ab-e54b-472c-9626-cb4a7b726f58-1 00:07:39.653 --> 00:07:42.680 first look at the header section of the note. 02d9ed5c-6a95-4cf5-8065-10041702e494-0 00:07:43.440 --> 00:07:46.980 So even though I went through the header of note two and last 02d9ed5c-6a95-4cf5-8065-10041702e494-1 00:07:46.980 --> 00:07:50.521 year's webinar, the design of the note requires going through 02d9ed5c-6a95-4cf5-8065-10041702e494-2 00:07:50.521 --> 00:07:52.120 this information once again. e08bf9d4-09a6-469f-9f8c-4529bac12cdf-0 00:07:53.280 --> 00:07:54.440 So let's begin. d2b22b8b-bc4f-4859-bcc6-1f24d8910834-0 00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:01.030 The note first directs us to check note one to section 16 and d2b22b8b-bc4f-4859-bcc6-1f24d8910834-1 00:08:01.030 --> 00:08:06.060 then note one to Chapter 84 to see if the product is excluded d2b22b8b-bc4f-4859-bcc6-1f24d8910834-2 00:08:06.060 --> 00:08:10.279 from the section and more specifically, chapter 84. 46ea34f4-7d16-41b6-9a84-b28dea4cfed9-0 00:08:14.480 --> 00:08:17.600 Here we have a snapshot of note one to section 16. 193161a1-5ff4-4946-8bbf-f498b99d897f-0 00:08:18.400 --> 00:08:22.437 Note one to section 16 itemizes the products or types of 193161a1-5ff4-4946-8bbf-f498b99d897f-1 00:08:22.437 --> 00:08:26.971 products that are excluded from the section listed in letters A 193161a1-5ff4-4946-8bbf-f498b99d897f-2 00:08:26.971 --> 00:08:27.680 through Q. 928f8fa5-d52b-41ea-ab15-f75ac0a14ef4-0 00:08:28.840 --> 00:08:32.495 For instance, articles of Section 17 are excluded from 928f8fa5-d52b-41ea-ab15-f75ac0a14ef4-1 00:08:32.495 --> 00:08:33.360 this chapter. 6425e98a-85f8-43a5-ab55-e783213dda28-0 00:08:34.040 --> 00:08:38.942 So if I had a part that's used in a motor vehicle, I would have 6425e98a-85f8-43a5-ab55-e783213dda28-1 00:08:38.942 --> 00:08:43.845 a conversation with NIS two O 6 to discuss the role of the item 6425e98a-85f8-43a5-ab55-e783213dda28-2 00:08:43.845 --> 00:08:48.288 in the vehicle to see if it's even considered a part of a 6425e98a-85f8-43a5-ab55-e783213dda28-3 00:08:48.288 --> 00:08:51.199 vehicle based on Section 17 criteria. c972b1a3-bf8c-404e-a7b2-4b569eb0c005-0 00:08:52.040 --> 00:08:55.433 And then we would also have a discussion to see that whether c972b1a3-bf8c-404e-a7b2-4b569eb0c005-1 00:08:55.433 --> 00:08:58.716 it had any unique features that prevented its use in other c972b1a3-bf8c-404e-a7b2-4b569eb0c005-2 00:08:58.716 --> 00:08:59.440 applications. dbdb7cdd-91d1-4c61-a5f2-a502fe675f13-0 00:08:59.680 --> 00:09:03.340 So we'd be talking about a few things to see if this note is dbdb7cdd-91d1-4c61-a5f2-a502fe675f13-1 00:09:03.340 --> 00:09:04.000 applicable. e1ee5c4f-e333-448b-8f3c-93ad2563aa44-0 00:09:09.510 --> 00:09:14.362 We also have to remember that even after an item makes the cut e1ee5c4f-e333-448b-8f3c-93ad2563aa44-1 00:09:14.362 --> 00:09:19.215 of note one to Section 16, we would then consider whether note e1ee5c4f-e333-448b-8f3c-93ad2563aa44-2 00:09:19.215 --> 00:09:21.679 one to Chapter 84 is applicable. ed436156-8978-4388-bffb-909480b59b17-0 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:25.820 And so you can see here, there's items such as vacuum cleaners ed436156-8978-4388-bffb-909480b59b17-1 00:09:25.820 --> 00:09:29.440 and radiators of motor vehicles are excluded from the chapter. 35054db8-3438-4488-8037-6369c61f68e8-0 00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.887 And so for these items, you wouldn't proceed any further 35054db8-3438-4488-8037-6369c61f68e8-1 00:09:33.887 --> 00:09:35.440 into Chapter 84 legally. 82ecd708-6506-4124-9aa4-cee4ab4ddf57-0 00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:38.068 We've been instructed that they're excluded from the 82ecd708-6506-4124-9aa4-cee4ab4ddf57-1 00:09:38.068 --> 00:09:41.144 section of the tariff schedule and they need to be considered 82ecd708-6506-4124-9aa4-cee4ab4ddf57-2 00:09:41.144 --> 00:09:41.640 elsewhere. dc4cef2f-45ba-4608-8322-c8015a855c46-0 00:09:48.760 --> 00:09:52.165 You should also notice that the note asked us that we not dc4cef2f-45ba-4608-8322-c8015a855c46-1 00:09:52.165 --> 00:09:55.335 consider the parts of headings that are listed in the dc4cef2f-45ba-4608-8322-c8015a855c46-2 00:09:55.335 --> 00:09:56.040 parentheses. 05054586-32a6-4712-a7cc-64092098e490-0 00:09:56.400 --> 00:10:01.280 We have heading 84 and a few Chapter 85 headings. eb79ec79-795f-472f-b075-ff9600ef02e1-0 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:09.864 Here's a look at heading 8484, which provides for certain eb79ec79-795f-472f-b075-ff9600ef02e1-1 00:10:09.864 --> 00:10:13.320 gaskets, sets of gaskets and mechanical seals. 0d754f9d-bc8c-4ed5-bdb9-f1584cef130b-0 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:17.213 Now for completeness of the presentation, I also looked at 0d754f9d-bc8c-4ed5-bdb9-f1584cef130b-1 00:10:17.213 --> 00:10:18.520 the Chapter 85 headings. 400e2fd1-ae8f-4669-b28d-e8be0cc61681-0 00:10:18.880 --> 00:10:24.382 And So what you have is 8544 provides for insulator and fiber 400e2fd1-ae8f-4669-b28d-e8be0cc61681-1 00:10:24.382 --> 00:10:29.973 optic cables, 8545 provides for carbon electrodes, brushes and 400e2fd1-ae8f-4669-b28d-e8be0cc61681-2 00:10:29.973 --> 00:10:35.653 lamp carbons, 8546 provides for electrical insulators, and 8547 400e2fd1-ae8f-4669-b28d-e8be0cc61681-3 00:10:35.653 --> 00:10:38.760 provides for insulating equipment. c327de8c-5ed4-41d9-a395-1e7723535500-0 00:10:40.040 --> 00:10:43.732 And these, And so you can gather that these headings have their, c327de8c-5ed4-41d9-a395-1e7723535500-1 00:10:43.732 --> 00:10:46.800 you know, their nuances to consider when classifying. e9ed20bb-5be0-4a08-9a91-07b8b444b6fe-0 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:52.754 You know, when you start looking at heading 8044, you take other e9ed20bb-5be0-4a08-9a91-07b8b444b6fe-1 00:10:52.754 --> 00:10:56.847 classification elements into consideration such as sets and e9ed20bb-5be0-4a08-9a91-07b8b444b6fe-2 00:10:56.847 --> 00:10:58.280 material composition. e2d82fbb-0179-45ba-b485-b4cccefc1c91-0 00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:02.084 So it's understandable why they're exceeded from the e2d82fbb-0179-45ba-b485-b4cccefc1c91-1 00:11:02.084 --> 00:11:04.320 specific application of note two. f340b010-178c-4c34-a33b-e9f2042f9f82-0 00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:08.200 They have their own principles to consider. 37733532-4e1e-4b02-9d12-f266a2e322b3-0 00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:19.086 So once we determine the item is not excluded, we must now 37733532-4e1e-4b02-9d12-f266a2e322b3-1 00:11:19.086 --> 00:11:23.367 consider whether the end unit or the system that it's being used 37733532-4e1e-4b02-9d12-f266a2e322b3-2 00:11:23.367 --> 00:11:26.199 with is a machine or a system of machines. 704ed2a7-a4ea-4c1d-b835-0ea7d752fdff-0 00:11:30.440 --> 00:11:31.520 This is logical. 2aa3c8c0-02f0-4a15-9b57-189dd9970cc8-0 00:11:31.560 --> 00:11:35.075 This section language tells us Section 16 provides for 2aa3c8c0-02f0-4a15-9b57-189dd9970cc8-1 00:11:35.075 --> 00:11:37.440 machinery and mechanical appliances. 39e0380b-1bfa-448b-9bd5-b7d7cff0b13d-0 00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:42.188 But unfortunately we cannot rely on this information as the 39e0380b-1bfa-448b-9bd5-b7d7cff0b13d-1 00:11:42.188 --> 00:11:46.053 titles of sections and chapters are provided for ease of 39e0380b-1bfa-448b-9bd5-b7d7cff0b13d-2 00:11:46.053 --> 00:11:49.240 reference only and have no legal significance. 95bc2ab1-6dee-4ae0-b5e2-bd32001dc537-0 00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:53.901 And so we're basically left with the cliffhanger of what does 95bc2ab1-6dee-4ae0-b5e2-bd32001dc537-1 00:11:53.901 --> 00:11:57.440 machinery and mechanical appliances actually mean? 057d9769-63a3-4c04-9d98-a76165653b82-0 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:04.683 Well, there's a section note that gives us some assistance 057d9769-63a3-4c04-9d98-a76165653b82-1 00:12:04.683 --> 00:12:05.560 with this question. 1d6a5c1b-b5e4-475d-a9e4-5e6af769db1f-0 00:12:05.880 --> 00:12:11.320 It tells us that it tells us what is considered a machine. b0a1d653-f887-4e4d-82ce-3e458b6e8d3e-0 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:13.000 For the purposes of this section. 143b8ddf-e4a4-4d9c-a185-3dc7e710a47b-0 00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:18.501 It says the term machine means any machine, machinery, plant, 143b8ddf-e4a4-4d9c-a185-3dc7e710a47b-1 00:12:18.501 --> 00:12:22.000 equipment, apparatus, or any appliance. 9c5e2824-1139-47ea-a5dd-14840add7022-0 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:26.811 But for me, this explanation is more of what you know machines 9c5e2824-1139-47ea-a5dd-14840add7022-1 00:12:26.811 --> 00:12:29.280 refer to, and it seems a bit general. 1b224550-c9ea-45bc-a3f5-d7ddcde6284e-0 00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.617 I mean, how do you know the end item is indeed machinery or 1b224550-c9ea-45bc-a3f5-d7ddcde6284e-1 00:12:33.617 --> 00:12:37.634 meant to be mechanical equipment or mechanical apparatus or 1b224550-c9ea-45bc-a3f5-d7ddcde6284e-2 00:12:37.634 --> 00:12:39.040 mechanical appliance? e4ad82b6-182e-4b13-bb6d-bf0afef12b39-0 00:12:43.880 --> 00:12:46.786 Unfortunately, there's not a definition of machinery found in e4ad82b6-182e-4b13-bb6d-bf0afef12b39-1 00:12:46.786 --> 00:12:48.240 the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. 600c6500-2c5e-4b90-b2c7-072958610359-0 00:12:48.600 --> 00:12:52.368 However, the courts have said that when a tariff item is not 600c6500-2c5e-4b90-b2c7-072958610359-1 00:12:52.368 --> 00:12:56.136 defined by the Harmonized Tariff Schedule or its legislative 600c6500-2c5e-4b90-b2c7-072958610359-2 00:12:56.136 --> 00:12:59.719 history, the terms correct meaning is its common meaning. 322d2439-5c70-4e67-ac3a-7f8a8b4066a8-0 00:13:00.280 --> 00:13:03.793 And to ascertain the common meaning of a term, the court 322d2439-5c70-4e67-ac3a-7f8a8b4066a8-1 00:13:03.793 --> 00:13:06.874 said that we can consult dictionaries, scientific 322d2439-5c70-4e67-ac3a-7f8a8b4066a8-2 00:13:06.874 --> 00:13:10.079 authorities and other reliable information sources. 998e6c94-cc91-4dfb-95a0-d783ba7507ec-0 00:13:10.680 --> 00:13:16.425 And This is why Headquarters Ruling H 033596 used a Webster 998e6c94-cc91-4dfb-95a0-d783ba7507ec-1 00:13:16.425 --> 00:13:20.160 dictionary to define the term machine. a91ad054-3b65-491d-aaef-f0ddc94f179a-0 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.080 And it gives us two parts, right? a9198604-ed68-44af-814b-bfe4593a4768-0 00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:27.000 Or two considerations. bcb00594-83a1-4070-98c0-7bd7516fbe42-0 00:13:27.160 --> 00:13:31.819 The first one, an assemblage of parts that transmit forces, bcb00594-83a1-4070-98c0-7bd7516fbe42-1 00:13:31.819 --> 00:13:36.944 motion and energy one to another in a predetermined manner, or an bcb00594-83a1-4070-98c0-7bd7516fbe42-2 00:13:36.944 --> 00:13:41.371 instrument as a lever designed to transmit or modify the bcb00594-83a1-4070-98c0-7bd7516fbe42-3 00:13:41.371 --> 00:13:44.400 application of force, power or motion. 36573ec1-fde4-4c1e-8fb0-bd76b6411996-0 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:49.090 And so we have to be aware of these definitions because let's 36573ec1-fde4-4c1e-8fb0-bd76b6411996-1 00:13:49.090 --> 00:13:52.235 say we have something that transmits thermal energy like an 36573ec1-fde4-4c1e-8fb0-bd76b6411996-2 00:13:52.235 --> 00:13:52.759 ice chest. db6bb602-8adb-4bcb-b70f-e4b71a12a502-0 00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:56.630 Well, it is true energy is conducted once there's contact db6bb602-8adb-4bcb-b70f-e4b71a12a502-1 00:13:56.630 --> 00:13:59.160 between the ice water and the drinks or food. 4cb34a81-7dc1-45c2-9bcb-6b21cacaa19a-0 00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:03.589 But a typical ice chest itself does not transfer energy using 4cb34a81-7dc1-45c2-9bcb-6b21cacaa19a-1 00:14:03.589 --> 00:14:05.520 moving parts or an instrument. 017c1769-9993-4c65-8eb2-e42291e63b4c-0 00:14:05.920 --> 00:14:09.664 And it's not until that ice is added does that cooling process 017c1769-9993-4c65-8eb2-e42291e63b4c-1 00:14:09.664 --> 00:14:10.080 begins. 189f6d4e-a4e4-46e9-89f9-ceea4b8504b5-0 00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:15.024 So in considering such, it's no wonder why the explanatory notes 189f6d4e-a4e4-46e9-89f9-ceea4b8504b5-1 00:14:15.024 --> 00:14:18.963 to heading 8418, which provides for refrigerating and refreeze 189f6d4e-a4e4-46e9-89f9-ceea4b8504b5-2 00:14:18.963 --> 00:14:22.840 and freezing equipment, excludes ice chest from this heading. 3890499a-cb79-4657-81d8-02658b57b8fb-0 00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:27.727 In fact, these types of ice chests are provided for in 3890499a-cb79-4657-81d8-02658b57b8fb-1 00:14:27.727 --> 00:14:28.880 heading 94 O3. a173d4dd-1980-4226-afb6-66cdf94afc7c-0 00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:37.735 So in returning to our note, we have to consider another a173d4dd-1980-4226-afb6-66cdf94afc7c-1 00:14:37.735 --> 00:14:41.659 critical aspect which says when we're applying this note, we're a173d4dd-1980-4226-afb6-66cdf94afc7c-2 00:14:41.659 --> 00:14:43.560 classifying parts of a machine. 57f3c604-e4bf-47d7-9a58-df746f658912-0 00:14:44.280 --> 00:14:47.655 And therefore, we now have to consider whether the item that 57f3c604-e4bf-47d7-9a58-df746f658912-1 00:14:47.655 --> 00:14:50.588 we're trying to classify is considered a part of the 57f3c604-e4bf-47d7-9a58-df746f658912-2 00:14:50.588 --> 00:14:51.640 respective machine. 9527b7c2-fe71-4e24-84c2-43d1ef08967e-0 00:14:57.040 --> 00:15:00.112 And just like the term machine, the term part is not defined in 9527b7c2-fe71-4e24-84c2-43d1ef08967e-1 00:15:00.112 --> 00:15:01.600 the Harmonized tariff schedule. f2955146-46a7-43a5-a200-51b13c86d277-0 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:04.842 But the courts have given us two tests to consider when f2955146-46a7-43a5-a200-51b13c86d277-1 00:15:04.842 --> 00:15:08.200 determining whether something would be considered a part. 37521b16-952a-411c-a4fd-6e09f33bd34d-0 00:15:12.520 --> 00:15:14.880 The first Test comes from the Willoughby court case. e899094d-111d-41dd-9a53-fa1a84869ba8-0 00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:18.663 It asked us to consider whether the item is an integral, e899094d-111d-41dd-9a53-fa1a84869ba8-1 00:15:18.663 --> 00:15:22.255 constituent or component part without which the article it is e899094d-111d-41dd-9a53-fa1a84869ba8-2 00:15:22.255 --> 00:15:24.400 joined to could not operate without. 36e8c059-2fa0-4568-8316-f1298dfba905-0 00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:29.390 The second part of the test, brought to us by the Pompeo 36e8c059-2fa0-4568-8316-f1298dfba905-1 00:15:29.390 --> 00:15:33.313 court case, asks to consider whether the item is dedicated 36e8c059-2fa0-4568-8316-f1298dfba905-2 00:15:33.313 --> 00:15:35.840 exclusively for the use of a machine. 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-0 00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:44.514 OK, now that we've looked at the header section of note two, we 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-1 00:15:44.514 --> 00:15:48.611 cannot move forward to sub node B without looking at sub node A, 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-2 00:15:48.611 --> 00:15:52.204 since this node has to be applied systematically and sub 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-3 00:15:52.204 --> 00:15:55.986 node A tells us that if there's a heading that specifically 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-4 00:15:55.986 --> 00:15:59.642 provides for an item, then it should be classified in the 336eb90e-3481-40ad-b5a1-cd01a392e65e-5 00:15:59.642 --> 00:16:00.840 respective heading. a1e005e3-c93d-4782-81d0-96eed08fa240-0 00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:05.721 The respective heading refers to the heading that identifies the a1e005e3-c93d-4782-81d0-96eed08fa240-1 00:16:05.721 --> 00:16:06.800 good in question. 69f1ce6f-486e-49c3-b44e-e82039784745-0 00:16:08.560 --> 00:16:12.909 The Harmonized Tariff Schedule classifieds merchandise based on 69f1ce6f-486e-49c3-b44e-e82039784745-1 00:16:12.909 --> 00:16:16.920 material, composition, name of the goods, and by function. 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-0 00:16:17.640 --> 00:16:21.323 Now, Chapter 84 headings do identify articles by name, but 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-1 00:16:21.323 --> 00:16:24.757 ultimately provide for merchandise by function because 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-2 00:16:24.757 --> 00:16:28.503 sometimes articles are referred to something by name and it 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-3 00:16:28.503 --> 00:16:32.437 turns out that by function they do not operate mechanically or 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-4 00:16:32.437 --> 00:16:36.308 they function in a way that the heading would not provide for 9972df64-b8fa-47df-bf37-20781219d6d1-5 00:16:36.308 --> 00:16:37.119 such article. e919cf65-eda5-4ff8-b88e-a41493393e67-0 00:16:38.920 --> 00:16:43.268 In fact, the decision the Midwest of Cannon Falls court e919cf65-eda5-4ff8-b88e-a41493393e67-1 00:16:43.268 --> 00:16:48.082 case goes into an explanation that classification is based on e919cf65-eda5-4ff8-b88e-a41493393e67-2 00:16:48.082 --> 00:16:50.800 all the factors and circumstances. 49fd4317-688c-41a7-94b4-bce5dfe57874-0 00:16:51.200 --> 00:16:56.041 Therefore, while the headings of Chapter 84 do name items, we 49fd4317-688c-41a7-94b4-bce5dfe57874-1 00:16:56.041 --> 00:17:01.116 often say that we classified by function since we're taking into 49fd4317-688c-41a7-94b4-bce5dfe57874-2 00:17:01.116 --> 00:17:05.880 consideration all the factors for the item such as function. 9501f5df-4506-49bd-921e-e671774e3a54-0 00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:11.143 Basically, we classify items based on the totality of the 9501f5df-4506-49bd-921e-e671774e3a54-1 00:17:11.143 --> 00:17:15.480 circumstances and for chapter 84 function is a key aspect. 9e56b61d-ab1a-4e30-84bc-9b4eca9ea1dd-0 00:17:21.340 --> 00:17:24.444 Now there are a few subheadings listed for sub note 8 that if 9e56b61d-ab1a-4e30-84bc-9b4eca9ea1dd-1 00:17:24.444 --> 00:17:27.598 the article is a part of any of these headings, application of 9e56b61d-ab1a-4e30-84bc-9b4eca9ea1dd-2 00:17:27.598 --> 00:17:28.900 this note would not apply. 91e60c35-ea3e-4330-8ba1-26d54fa9ce8b-0 00:17:29.980 --> 00:17:33.850 That's because they are parts provisions of specific machines 91e60c35-ea3e-4330-8ba1-26d54fa9ce8b-1 00:17:33.850 --> 00:17:37.658 or headings that provide for auxiliary machinery of specific 91e60c35-ea3e-4330-8ba1-26d54fa9ce8b-2 00:17:37.658 --> 00:17:38.220 machines. d2668a97-eae1-4ba7-a71e-bbcb3e5a8f95-0 00:17:38.520 --> 00:17:45.294 For instance, 84 O 9 provides for parts used with engines of d2668a97-eae1-4ba7-a71e-bbcb3e5a8f95-1 00:17:45.294 --> 00:17:51.957 headings 84 O 7 and 84 O 88431 provides for parts used with d2668a97-eae1-4ba7-a71e-bbcb3e5a8f95-2 00:17:51.957 --> 00:17:55.400 machinery of headings 84258430. ff1d5162-df5b-4366-a28d-be523db974fc-0 00:17:55.880 --> 00:18:01.649 And that machinery is forklifts, excavators, bulldozers, ff1d5162-df5b-4366-a28d-be523db974fc-1 00:18:01.649 --> 00:18:02.560 etcetera. c0e11359-9a71-469d-823f-1b6345cfef69-0 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:11.305 And you have heading 8473 and that's auxiliary machines used c0e11359-9a71-469d-823f-1b6345cfef69-1 00:18:11.305 --> 00:18:15.640 with headings 844484458446 or 8447. 4c4284d7-9c90-422b-9cda-ee7d83c66c74-0 00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:19.423 And those are your textile machines, spinning machines, 4c4284d7-9c90-422b-9cda-ee7d83c66c74-1 00:18:19.423 --> 00:18:22.400 weaving machines and even knitting machines. f5c84776-6f6c-4960-affb-64946e304520-0 00:18:23.600 --> 00:18:28.500 And you have 8466, which provides for parts and f5c84776-6f6c-4960-affb-64946e304520-1 00:18:28.500 --> 00:18:33.400 accessories used with machines of 8456 to 8466. 3773954f-e862-499d-b741-ded36f414d75-0 00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:37.270 And those are your drilling machines, threading machines, 3773954f-e862-499d-b741-ded36f414d75-1 00:18:37.270 --> 00:18:41.141 tapping machines, grinding machines, sharpening machines, 3773954f-e862-499d-b741-ded36f414d75-2 00:18:41.141 --> 00:18:45.078 cutting, sawing, shaping, broaching, things that you would 3773954f-e862-499d-b741-ded36f414d75-3 00:18:45.078 --> 00:18:46.479 use in manufacturing. 81f3516a-fa55-4bcc-81b9-05e3c179571b-0 00:18:53.170 --> 00:18:56.742 So let's go through an example that better explains what is 81f3516a-fa55-4bcc-81b9-05e3c179571b-1 00:18:56.742 --> 00:18:58.410 meant by respective heading. 21d3f67b-bdbc-4c2c-bd5f-c30bbc8fa9a9-0 00:18:59.640 --> 00:19:03.468 Here we have a crankshaft that connects to an internal 21d3f67b-bdbc-4c2c-bd5f-c30bbc8fa9a9-1 00:19:03.468 --> 00:19:06.880 combustion piston engine that powers a chainsaw. 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-0 00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:15.821 Heading 8043 provides for crankshafts by name, but you can 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-1 00:19:15.821 --> 00:19:19.719 see the heading outlines, you know, for these types of 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-2 00:19:19.719 --> 00:19:24.255 articles, but you also see the the explanatory notes, which are 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-3 00:19:24.255 --> 00:19:28.649 the official interpretation of the Harmonized Tariff schedule 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-4 00:19:28.649 --> 00:19:32.688 at the international level explains the heading provides 14483de2-4d59-4eb2-8a76-a6fafd57370b-5 00:19:32.688 --> 00:19:35.240 for machinery that transmits power. aaa8e9f9-2c8c-4532-af19-00b89bd95a25-0 00:19:36.760 --> 00:19:42.520 And so that's why the crankshaft that we just were reading about aaa8e9f9-2c8c-4532-af19-00b89bd95a25-1 00:19:42.520 --> 00:19:45.800 would be classified in heading 8483. f3262702-b020-44d5-b355-4a47b0f12f49-0 00:19:46.840 --> 00:19:52.440 It's called out by name and it also meets the function aspect. 95a6bd8d-af81-4872-9703-96a42ce2e76f-0 00:19:57.000 --> 00:20:01.591 OK, we have finally arrived at sub node B, which says other 95a6bd8d-af81-4872-9703-96a42ce2e76f-1 00:20:01.591 --> 00:20:05.877 parts, if suitable for use solely or principally with a 95a6bd8d-af81-4872-9703-96a42ce2e76f-2 00:20:05.877 --> 00:20:10.698 particular kind of machine or with a number of machines of the 95a6bd8d-af81-4872-9703-96a42ce2e76f-3 00:20:10.698 --> 00:20:14.984 same heading, including a machine heading 8479 or 8543, 95a6bd8d-af81-4872-9703-96a42ce2e76f-4 00:20:14.984 --> 00:20:19.040 are to be classified with the machines of that kind. 874a6ecb-b8a8-480a-981d-73d06a8a79e4-0 00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:27.339 Or in heading eighty, 480-984-3180, 440-884-6680, 874a6ecb-b8a8-480a-981d-73d06a8a79e4-1 00:20:27.339 --> 00:20:35.120 470-385-0380, 522-8529, or 8538, as appropriate. 96078e52-a38c-404c-b3e9-e9702a4b683a-0 00:20:35.320 --> 00:20:40.494 However, parts which are equally suitable for use principally 96078e52-a38c-404c-b3e9-e9702a4b683a-1 00:20:40.494 --> 00:20:45.419 with the goods of headings 8517 and 8525 to 8528 are to be 96078e52-a38c-404c-b3e9-e9702a4b683a-2 00:20:45.419 --> 00:20:50.844 classified in heading 8517, and parts which are suitable for use 96078e52-a38c-404c-b3e9-e9702a4b683a-3 00:20:50.844 --> 00:20:56.102 solely or principally with the goods of heading 8524 are to be 96078e52-a38c-404c-b3e9-e9702a4b683a-4 00:20:56.102 --> 00:20:58.440 classified and heading 8529. 74908725-58fe-46a8-a423-1bc6fc4a40ba-0 00:20:59.840 --> 00:21:03.706 So one thing that you'll notice is that the sub note, this sub 74908725-58fe-46a8-a423-1bc6fc4a40ba-1 00:21:03.706 --> 00:21:07.450 note lists the headings that were in the parentheses for sub 74908725-58fe-46a8-a423-1bc6fc4a40ba-2 00:21:07.450 --> 00:21:07.880 note A. 3dda2f02-f9e1-4683-bc25-fe5edf4739aa-0 00:21:08.600 --> 00:21:12.814 That's because they're headings for parts or auxiliary machines 3dda2f02-f9e1-4683-bc25-fe5edf4739aa-1 00:21:12.814 --> 00:21:17.160 of certain machines, such as the motors and the forklifts, right? 5404bbab-00fe-436b-9920-1dc3a0eedc6f-0 00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:22.535 Well, this idea coincides with the idea of classifying parts 5404bbab-00fe-436b-9920-1dc3a0eedc6f-1 00:21:22.535 --> 00:21:24.840 used with a particular machine. 31ebc1f3-ed80-4318-8f29-d558d283f113-0 00:21:25.240 --> 00:21:28.229 Meaning these types of headings have language in the heading 31ebc1f3-ed80-4318-8f29-d558d283f113-1 00:21:28.229 --> 00:21:30.680 that says they provide for parts of that machine. 372a96d5-4576-4210-81b6-238f03b08daf-0 00:21:31.320 --> 00:21:36.010 For example, heading 8413 provides for pumps for liquids, 372a96d5-4576-4210-81b6-238f03b08daf-1 00:21:36.010 --> 00:21:40.378 whether or not fitted with a measuring device, liquid 372a96d5-4576-4210-81b6-238f03b08daf-2 00:21:40.378 --> 00:21:42.400 elevators, parts thereof. 53cc7098-10e2-446d-876f-d566d55e9fec-0 00:21:43.160 --> 00:21:46.752 It's that idea that the heading provides for the specific 53cc7098-10e2-446d-876f-d566d55e9fec-1 00:21:46.752 --> 00:21:48.920 machine and parts of that machine. e3541d25-acc6-4d90-ab8d-e181fd50fbb0-0 00:21:52.320 --> 00:21:56.527 By the way, you can see that from the word, however down that e3541d25-acc6-4d90-ab8d-e181fd50fbb0-1 00:21:56.527 --> 00:22:00.600 that's the additional language that pertains to Chapter 85. 04cd36ba-9154-444d-8b46-bc3740271a1d-0 00:22:01.200 --> 00:22:05.063 But as I mentioned, this webinar applies to Chapter 84 04cd36ba-9154-444d-8b46-bc3740271a1d-1 00:22:05.063 --> 00:22:09.488 merchandise, so we will not be getting into that aspect of the 04cd36ba-9154-444d-8b46-bc3740271a1d-2 00:22:09.488 --> 00:22:09.840 note. 7e0e23f4-414a-46c6-8da9-c0da586342b8-0 00:22:15.100 --> 00:22:17.180 OK, let's dive into some case studies. eec9cf9d-fb87-4c2d-a34f-7021a1fced34-0 00:22:17.680 --> 00:22:20.907 So here's our first case study that concerns mechanical valve eec9cf9d-fb87-4c2d-a34f-7021a1fced34-1 00:22:20.907 --> 00:22:21.480 assemblies. ddcf06f1-6969-469d-af70-cc980124e817-0 00:22:22.600 --> 00:22:26.159 Now valves have been around since the Roman age and are used ddcf06f1-6969-469d-af70-cc980124e817-1 00:22:26.159 --> 00:22:29.894 in all kinds of machines such as an additive, manufacturing and ddcf06f1-6969-469d-af70-cc980124e817-2 00:22:29.894 --> 00:22:31.120 industrial pipelines. b15eb969-429a-402b-9b50-819582a4da6a-0 00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:34.991 Green trade strategies have pushed for the development of b15eb969-429a-402b-9b50-819582a4da6a-1 00:22:34.991 --> 00:22:36.840 new valve designs and prototype. 968e10af-91ce-4241-86a5-e2efc4f8f812-0 00:22:37.520 --> 00:22:42.146 There's even a push to fabricate valve parts using materials of 968e10af-91ce-4241-86a5-e2efc4f8f812-1 00:22:42.146 --> 00:22:45.400 materials that are environmentally friendly. 271c1de7-562b-4bfc-bcf8-2156e0a40edf-0 00:22:46.800 --> 00:22:50.671 I recently came across a statistic that said 60% of huge 271c1de7-562b-4bfc-bcf8-2156e0a40edf-1 00:22:50.671 --> 00:22:53.320 of fugitive emissions are from valves. f0a6fd71-abef-4a01-ae2a-34c3a9ee24a9-0 00:22:54.160 --> 00:22:58.030 Fugitive emissions are unintended emissions of gases f0a6fd71-abef-4a01-ae2a-34c3a9ee24a9-1 00:22:58.030 --> 00:23:02.265 and vapors from pressurized equipment or pipelines due to f0a6fd71-abef-4a01-ae2a-34c3a9ee24a9-2 00:23:02.265 --> 00:23:06.720 leaks, equipment malfunctions, or other unintended releases. 9a0129f8-59b0-43e2-9c25-31f8ae765ace-0 00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:11.891 So in the spirit of climate friendly valves, here we have a 9a0129f8-59b0-43e2-9c25-31f8ae765ace-1 00:23:11.891 --> 00:23:14.840 valve that's used in a hydroponic system. 1a9eb999-44c9-4cda-b60d-66cce9ff2dcd-0 00:23:16.760 --> 00:23:20.763 You could say this is a climate friendly valve since this type 1a9eb999-44c9-4cda-b60d-66cce9ff2dcd-1 00:23:20.763 --> 00:23:24.639 of system is used to grow plants using a water based solvent 1a9eb999-44c9-4cda-b60d-66cce9ff2dcd-2 00:23:24.639 --> 00:23:25.720 rather than soil. f4900727-6329-4a62-9ae6-d020187ce115-0 00:23:26.840 --> 00:23:31.071 And so here we have ball valve assemblies that primarily f4900727-6329-4a62-9ae6-d020187ce115-1 00:23:31.071 --> 00:23:35.080 consists of valves and motors that actuate the valve. 1cd3d0fc-07cf-4201-97ee-7f3553fddd9b-0 00:23:35.480 --> 00:23:39.453 Each plastic valve opens and closes to control the flow of 1cd3d0fc-07cf-4201-97ee-7f3553fddd9b-1 00:23:39.453 --> 00:23:42.080 fertilizer solution and waters plants. a6f9c62f-c1dd-4ff6-bdec-10eb1f93eba5-0 00:23:42.520 --> 00:23:46.320 And as I mentioned, the valves are used in hydroponic systems. 65380b91-b561-4ab3-9137-c87b7feffdb0-0 00:23:50.920 --> 00:23:55.604 So if we look at the note, we start by looking at note one to 65380b91-b561-4ab3-9137-c87b7feffdb0-1 00:23:55.604 --> 00:23:59.835 Section 16 and note one to Chapter 84, and you will see 65380b91-b561-4ab3-9137-c87b7feffdb0-2 00:23:59.835 --> 00:24:03.839 that valves are not listed and it's made of plastic. f3e6f030-5b48-4450-a001-12546359791e-0 00:24:03.840 --> 00:24:08.035 So the material composition exclusions, exclusions do not f3e6f030-5b48-4450-a001-12546359791e-1 00:24:08.035 --> 00:24:09.120 come into play. eb4f0a8a-a321-4cd1-9589-2f31da46b68b-0 00:24:10.760 --> 00:24:15.907 We also know that the valves, valve assemblies are used in a eb4f0a8a-a321-4cd1-9589-2f31da46b68b-1 00:24:15.907 --> 00:24:17.680 mechanical apparatus. cfb4440a-9d74-4566-b243-77217a3ae9cb-0 00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:23.415 Hydroponic garden systems can use a centrifugal system or an cfb4440a-9d74-4566-b243-77217a3ae9cb-1 00:24:23.415 --> 00:24:29.133 automated watering system and such types of hydroponic systems cfb4440a-9d74-4566-b243-77217a3ae9cb-2 00:24:29.133 --> 00:24:32.400 are classified within heading 8424. 340e4be9-5b74-491d-b1fc-ef09bd349383-0 00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:36.827 Now, there are few instances in which these types of systems are 340e4be9-5b74-491d-b1fc-ef09bd349383-1 00:24:36.827 --> 00:24:39.697 classified by material composition or as a domestic 340e4be9-5b74-491d-b1fc-ef09bd349383-2 00:24:39.697 --> 00:24:41.960 appliance, but that's not the case here. c8944648-b04b-455e-9063-3d8025f4b61a-0 00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:47.380 We also know that the valve is an integral component of the c8944648-b04b-455e-9063-3d8025f4b61a-1 00:24:47.380 --> 00:24:50.880 system as it's controlling the flow of water and fertilizer c8944648-b04b-455e-9063-3d8025f4b61a-2 00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:54.321 that allows for photosynthesis to take place and therefore c8944648-b04b-455e-9063-3d8025f4b61a-3 00:24:54.321 --> 00:24:55.080 plant growth. bd93b243-6ee9-4fde-bfba-4d6133068354-0 00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:00.273 We also know that none of the header or sub note headings bd93b243-6ee9-4fde-bfba-4d6133068354-1 00:25:00.273 --> 00:25:04.515 listed in the parentheses are applicable because the item is bd93b243-6ee9-4fde-bfba-4d6133068354-2 00:25:04.515 --> 00:25:06.880 not a gasket or electrical parts. cd6ec6e0-d1b5-4816-a76b-81fc09af5c36-0 00:25:07.360 --> 00:25:11.565 So then we drop to sub node A and this is where we have to cd6ec6e0-d1b5-4816-a76b-81fc09af5c36-1 00:25:11.565 --> 00:25:15.200 consider whether valves have a respective heading. 8df76079-d617-42fa-ab12-bfcbd6e146ba-0 00:25:17.960 --> 00:25:23.206 Well, valves are provided for within heading 8481 and 8df76079-d617-42fa-ab12-bfcbd6e146ba-1 00:25:23.206 --> 00:25:29.231 recognizing that this valve or these valves mechanically open 8df76079-d617-42fa-ab12-bfcbd6e146ba-2 00:25:29.231 --> 00:25:35.255 and close to control the flow of fluid, it meets the terms of 8df76079-d617-42fa-ab12-bfcbd6e146ba-3 00:25:35.255 --> 00:25:41.279 heading 8481 and therefore was classified within heading 8041 8df76079-d617-42fa-ab12-bfcbd6e146ba-4 00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:44.000 in New York ruling N 330101. 22462bc7-d4ff-4bbc-b15c-ab55c1fb15e4-0 00:25:49.160 --> 00:25:53.099 Now, the significance of going through the previous case study 22462bc7-d4ff-4bbc-b15c-ab55c1fb15e4-1 00:25:53.099 --> 00:25:57.101 is it takes us into our second case study which applies note to 22462bc7-d4ff-4bbc-b15c-ab55c1fb15e4-2 00:25:57.101 --> 00:25:58.040 the Section 16. c4641219-856f-433d-a617-44c02a6b2623-0 00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:02.960 Remember the note has a hierarchy to its application. c6ba2978-660e-4730-8cae-1a6952f55df9-0 00:26:04.360 --> 00:26:08.392 So here we have a brass housing that it's used in a check valve c6ba2978-660e-4730-8cae-1a6952f55df9-1 00:26:08.392 --> 00:26:08.960 assembly. 91dbaa00-efe0-45c3-97dc-2e3e8c197f92-0 00:26:09.320 --> 00:26:12.662 The housing features an inlet, an outlet, and after 91dbaa00-efe0-45c3-97dc-2e3e8c197f92-1 00:26:12.662 --> 00:26:16.712 importation, a check valve will be inserted within the housing 91dbaa00-efe0-45c3-97dc-2e3e8c197f92-2 00:26:16.712 --> 00:26:18.320 to complete the assembly. 27dc5e59-4b4d-4511-a3b2-54f35e128c40-0 00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:29.709 So if you remember from the last example, valves are not excluded 27dc5e59-4b4d-4511-a3b2-54f35e128c40-1 00:26:29.709 --> 00:26:35.828 from Chapter 84 because of note 1 to Sections 16 or note one to 27dc5e59-4b4d-4511-a3b2-54f35e128c40-2 00:26:35.828 --> 00:26:36.880 Chapter 84. aa066139-a3dc-49d1-88f6-873cd7d9ae93-0 00:26:37.560 --> 00:26:43.300 And valves that open and close to control or regulate the aa066139-a3dc-49d1-88f6-873cd7d9ae93-1 00:26:43.300 --> 00:26:47.160 movement of fluid or gas are machines. 68a40820-78e0-428d-a298-b7ed0e0cd522-0 00:26:47.480 --> 00:26:51.050 And so we can conclude that this house is an integral part of the 68a40820-78e0-428d-a298-b7ed0e0cd522-1 00:26:51.050 --> 00:26:54.080 valve as well because it's designed to house the valve. 8718bded-098d-4acf-b1dd-ac405ddcc2d1-0 00:26:54.520 --> 00:26:56.000 It has an inlet and outlet. cd059093-76f0-4a58-aa25-d98db5911457-0 00:26:56.280 --> 00:26:59.640 And without this housing the check valve could not operate. 29135613-a93a-41f7-acdc-683d2c4ac0ab-0 00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:06.515 However, valve housings are not provided for within by name 29135613-a93a-41f7-acdc-683d2c4ac0ab-1 00:27:06.515 --> 00:27:09.840 within any of the Chapter 84 headings. 0f73b34e-f67a-4eaf-912f-ec36d758d7c0-0 00:27:09.880 --> 00:27:15.122 But we know the end machine is a valve that's provided for 0f73b34e-f67a-4eaf-912f-ec36d758d7c0-1 00:27:15.122 --> 00:27:20.276 heading provided for within heading 8481 and heading 8481 0f73b34e-f67a-4eaf-912f-ec36d758d7c0-2 00:27:20.276 --> 00:27:23.920 provides for valves and parts of valves. bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-0 00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:30.017 Therefore, because this item is an integral part of the valve bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-1 00:27:30.017 --> 00:27:35.096 and heading 8481 provides for parts of valves and it's not bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-2 00:27:35.096 --> 00:27:39.831 classified in any of the heading ranges that are parts bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-3 00:27:39.831 --> 00:27:44.738 provisions, the 84 O 9, the 84318448 and etcetera, those bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-4 00:27:44.738 --> 00:27:49.559 specific parts or or auxiliary parts provisions, we can bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-5 00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:54.036 classify this item as a part within heading 8481 in bc6d953d-9522-4eb5-995b-c3772f875864-6 00:27:54.036 --> 00:27:57.480 accordance with no to be to section 16. 1bd24ddb-0e11-4811-9621-1468ad8ae962-0 00:27:58.880 --> 00:28:04.320 And that's exactly what happened in New York ruling and 101278. 5dbe5448-0e4d-4efe-b655-576086e902b1-0 00:28:10.110 --> 00:28:15.030 OK, here we look at an outdoor unit of a heat heat pump system. 62986e32-3250-431e-842c-c9be72d6529e-0 00:28:15.510 --> 00:28:19.732 Heat pump systems are regarded as climate friendly because in 62986e32-3250-431e-842c-c9be72d6529e-1 00:28:19.732 --> 00:28:23.887 these systems, heat is moved around, which is more efficient 62986e32-3250-431e-842c-c9be72d6529e-2 00:28:23.887 --> 00:28:28.110 and less energy intensive than creating it by burning a fuel. 800f6984-5c3c-4a43-b130-f1849e3ccaa4-0 00:28:29.560 --> 00:28:34.344 And here we have the outdoor unit that connects to an indoor 800f6984-5c3c-4a43-b130-f1849e3ccaa4-1 00:28:34.344 --> 00:28:35.600 evaporator unit. a75a382f-8cd2-4ea1-b7f4-6cb576f3c36f-0 00:28:35.920 --> 00:28:39.598 The unit consists of a condenser, a compressor, and a a75a382f-8cd2-4ea1-b7f4-6cb576f3c36f-1 00:28:39.598 --> 00:28:40.280 heat pump. b8b458f4-df04-4a0a-99ca-a85f8ce9c5b5-0 00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:45.458 And the heat pump allows for for the system to change between b8b458f4-df04-4a0a-99ca-a85f8ce9c5b5-1 00:28:45.458 --> 00:28:47.400 cooling and heating cycles. fa8b29b4-05a8-4d40-9c65-69598be7f797-0 00:28:50.760 --> 00:28:54.641 And courtesy of the Department of Energy, here's a visual fa8b29b4-05a8-4d40-9c65-69598be7f797-1 00:28:54.641 --> 00:28:58.857 representation of how heat pump systems work and how that heat fa8b29b4-05a8-4d40-9c65-69598be7f797-2 00:28:58.857 --> 00:29:01.400 pump works relative to to the system. f0ba7411-765b-4d71-9a95-e1408d2dfda6-0 00:29:02.080 --> 00:29:05.000 And as you can see, it connects to an indoor unit. 6760c3e8-c8e1-414e-9399-3908933f758e-0 00:29:06.080 --> 00:29:09.584 The outdoor coil absorbs the heat and allows the refrigerant 6760c3e8-c8e1-414e-9399-3908933f758e-1 00:29:09.584 --> 00:29:13.030 to proceed to the compressor before it condenses within the 6760c3e8-c8e1-414e-9399-3908933f758e-2 00:29:13.030 --> 00:29:13.720 indoor coil. 1ccd8848-9aa8-4b66-aadd-746416548bf3-0 00:29:14.360 --> 00:29:18.225 You can also see the system has a reversing valve that simply 1ccd8848-9aa8-4b66-aadd-746416548bf3-1 00:29:18.225 --> 00:29:21.280 reverses the process by cycling the refrigerant. 417d5447-9b18-453d-984c-5a147fe18639-0 00:29:21.280 --> 00:29:24.720 The opposite, it makes the condenser function as an 417d5447-9b18-453d-984c-5a147fe18639-1 00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:26.440 evaporator and vice versa. bd4f4e96-4f7e-44ab-9a5c-703ca8a21040-0 00:29:27.120 --> 00:29:31.773 So I thought this was a good representation of how heating bd4f4e96-4f7e-44ab-9a5c-703ca8a21040-1 00:29:31.773 --> 00:29:35.560 and cooling cycles occur in a heat pump system. 69e80762-f09d-4b47-a60c-7d42cda40c9a-0 00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:42.880 OK, let's begin our analysis now. f08477ef-c013-4e2d-a109-bb07f534bf72-0 00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:47.310 I can tell you that note one to section 16, nor note one to f08477ef-c013-4e2d-a109-bb07f534bf72-1 00:29:47.310 --> 00:29:49.600 Chapter 84 are applicable here. 710a5978-ff9e-431c-879e-d0d41bf91317-0 00:29:52.080 --> 00:29:55.934 Outdoor units or heat pump systems are not excluded by name 710a5978-ff9e-431c-879e-d0d41bf91317-1 00:29:55.934 --> 00:29:59.402 and they're not excluded based on any of the material 710a5978-ff9e-431c-879e-d0d41bf91317-2 00:29:59.402 --> 00:30:00.880 composition exclusions. f191c4b1-68bb-4587-80ca-3149ac40f83e-0 00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:05.520 So what do you think? decb8322-fdba-454c-903c-6116ca54c5e3-0 00:30:05.720 --> 00:30:09.800 Is the heat pump part of a machining system? f280663a-db41-497f-ad09-1218e1066a8d-0 00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:20.320 How about we enter what we what you think in the chat box does? f88d4ea0-08b4-44f5-8987-25b2accf8e7f-0 00:30:20.800 --> 00:30:22.360 Yes, yes. 7e18a4e0-ea48-4ff8-8ca4-d51df7f2a750-0 00:30:22.400 --> 00:30:33.240 OK, that's great news. 48be64bf-6cb5-40f9-9677-e34c5a340eac-0 00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:37.665 Everyone's saying yes, Yes, you have a system that conditions 48be64bf-6cb5-40f9-9677-e34c5a340eac-1 00:30:37.665 --> 00:30:41.380 air and dehumidifies by circulating refrigerant using 48be64bf-6cb5-40f9-9677-e34c5a340eac-2 00:30:41.380 --> 00:30:42.000 machines. 0a36af4f-dbbf-451d-a021-e85925301526-0 00:30:42.040 --> 00:30:46.120 So the system itself is considered a machine. 3146bf80-ccb1-464c-9324-ac14c625679b-0 00:30:48.120 --> 00:30:52.321 Now do you think that the heat pump or the outdoor unit here is 3146bf80-ccb1-464c-9324-ac14c625679b-1 00:30:52.321 --> 00:30:55.800 considered an integral part of the machining system? 089e036c-019a-42d9-b6fa-0a9e738d74da-0 00:30:56.640 --> 00:31:00.360 Again, if you could just type in a yes or no in the chat box, 089e036c-019a-42d9-b6fa-0a9e738d74da-1 00:31:00.360 --> 00:31:01.680 what do you all think? abc175b6-ae4b-4395-9b7f-f990d6ce029d-0 00:31:14.380 --> 00:31:15.620 Yes, yes, yes. 852f1f51-5d82-4772-9122-88a211d901c6-0 00:31:15.620 --> 00:31:16.620 Everyone's saying yes. e0794ada-9870-4a4e-9bb5-a1f361ada3f8-0 00:31:17.060 --> 00:31:17.700 That's right. b158edd3-49ae-4290-b93a-b0d8a5080e93-0 00:31:17.900 --> 00:31:22.954 It's needed to release heat and circulate refrigerant to produce b158edd3-49ae-4290-b93a-b0d8a5080e93-1 00:31:22.954 --> 00:31:26.220 conditioned air and to minimize humidity. 6d6062c2-b479-4eab-a88b-b42a8be62ef1-0 00:31:29.780 --> 00:31:34.024 So even though outdoor are not provided for in a specific 6d6062c2-b479-4eab-a88b-b42a8be62ef1-1 00:31:34.024 --> 00:31:38.268 heading by name, right, but air conditioning machines are 6d6062c2-b479-4eab-a88b-b42a8be62ef1-2 00:31:38.268 --> 00:31:42.659 especially, particularly the air conditioning machines that 6d6062c2-b479-4eab-a88b-b42a8be62ef1-3 00:31:42.659 --> 00:31:46.976 change temperature and humidity levels, they're classified 6d6062c2-b479-4eab-a88b-b42a8be62ef1-4 00:31:46.976 --> 00:31:48.440 within heading 8415. b745daec-fd2a-4942-85ca-22ef37535186-0 00:31:49.080 --> 00:31:53.939 And heading 8415 provides for parts of air conditioning b745daec-fd2a-4942-85ca-22ef37535186-1 00:31:53.939 --> 00:31:54.720 machines. 6488ea3b-caba-48c8-8750-09d7e57d8583-0 00:31:56.760 --> 00:32:03.016 And so This is why New York ruling N3O8187 classified the 6488ea3b-caba-48c8-8750-09d7e57d8583-1 00:32:03.016 --> 00:32:09.704 outdoor unit of the heat pump system as a part within heading 6488ea3b-caba-48c8-8750-09d7e57d8583-2 00:32:09.704 --> 00:32:13.480 8415 per note to be to Section 16. 119217dc-0e21-4d14-936f-c64c69b5033d-0 00:32:19.250 --> 00:32:25.370 OK, our next slide concerns races used in ball bearings. b422037d-59e3-46fa-8b01-87126b399e55-0 00:32:26.450 --> 00:32:30.631 Now bearings are viewed as being environmentally friendly because b422037d-59e3-46fa-8b01-87126b399e55-1 00:32:30.631 --> 00:32:34.370 of the energy savings that results from their application. 81f83e60-d2b2-4081-9ccc-2c1e3de2e8d8-0 00:32:34.810 --> 00:32:38.130 Reducing friction leads to energy savings. b172e318-f052-45c4-86a1-a044f2eb1d1f-0 00:32:38.520 --> 00:32:43.245 In fact, estimates show that a 10% reduction of friction from b172e318-f052-45c4-86a1-a044f2eb1d1f-1 00:32:43.245 --> 00:32:47.590 anti friction bearings in use today could lead to energy b172e318-f052-45c4-86a1-a044f2eb1d1f-2 00:32:47.590 --> 00:32:48.200 savings. ff6f6a94-645f-4ef7-8c05-5dcb847ca2d9-0 00:32:49.480 --> 00:32:53.834 All right, so here we have races that are part of a needle thrust ff6f6a94-645f-4ef7-8c05-5dcb847ca2d9-1 00:32:53.834 --> 00:32:57.200 bearing assembly used to reduce rotating friction. 848b25dc-f373-4f02-bd70-48f5d25c76e0-0 00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:04.296 The roller elements will not be included with the metal races at 848b25dc-f373-4f02-bd70-48f5d25c76e0-1 00:33:04.296 --> 00:33:10.575 the time of importation, and so here we have a visual of a ball 848b25dc-f373-4f02-bd70-48f5d25c76e0-2 00:33:10.575 --> 00:33:11.359 bearing. 6ac0bd24-965a-4c80-8a52-f72887a900d9-0 00:33:12.080 --> 00:33:15.837 Now it's different from the needle roller bearing, but the 6ac0bd24-965a-4c80-8a52-f72887a900d9-1 00:33:15.837 --> 00:33:19.339 visual gives you an idea of how bearings are generally 6ac0bd24-965a-4c80-8a52-f72887a900d9-2 00:33:19.339 --> 00:33:20.040 configured. 508f499e-3295-4aa5-a93c-18ae2a08e2b1-0 00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:24.229 I just was not able to obtain a depiction of a needle roller 508f499e-3295-4aa5-a93c-18ae2a08e2b1-1 00:33:24.229 --> 00:33:25.840 bearing due to copyright issues. dc533032-0068-49f9-9960-395bc9f08c7c-0 00:33:25.840 --> 00:33:30.216 But you can see the inner and outer race and those are present dc533032-0068-49f9-9960-395bc9f08c7c-1 00:33:30.216 --> 00:33:32.440 with the needle roller bearings. 397b0cbe-83be-47cc-b957-6d867fc6bb9b-0 00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:37.378 The difference is that they have needles rather than balls, and 397b0cbe-83be-47cc-b957-6d867fc6bb9b-1 00:33:37.378 --> 00:33:42.393 the cage would be configured to fit those needles just like this 397b0cbe-83be-47cc-b957-6d867fc6bb9b-2 00:33:42.393 --> 00:33:45.480 one is configured to receive the balls. 5d934d95-d7be-46fc-80ed-be4d82e6f9b4-0 00:33:51.800 --> 00:33:53.440 OK, let's begin our analysis. 1efdd5ac-15af-48c9-8325-816a388f89ca-0 00:33:54.360 --> 00:33:58.552 So I can tell you that note one to section 16 nor note one to 1efdd5ac-15af-48c9-8325-816a388f89ca-1 00:33:58.552 --> 00:34:02.475 chapter 84 are applicable here by material composition or 1efdd5ac-15af-48c9-8325-816a388f89ca-2 00:34:02.475 --> 00:34:06.668 otherwise, and it does not fall in one of the headings in the 1efdd5ac-15af-48c9-8325-816a388f89ca-3 00:34:06.668 --> 00:34:07.480 parentheses. 95e567e2-0cfd-4f0e-8d3d-7741c39048a8-0 00:34:07.760 --> 00:34:11.280 Remember, it's not a gasket or anything after 85. 53afcc89-b911-4009-917d-7b52b28be0e1-0 00:34:14.080 --> 00:34:18.073 In general, bearings for classification purposes are not 53afcc89-b911-4009-917d-7b52b28be0e1-1 00:34:18.073 --> 00:34:21.857 regarded as a part of any application if there are no 53afcc89-b911-4009-917d-7b52b28be0e1-2 00:34:21.857 --> 00:34:24.520 additional physical features present. 9d9a0c61-fa84-408a-8c19-25d27782dd90-0 00:34:25.160 --> 00:34:29.538 Headquarters Ruling 960049 explains that the application of 9d9a0c61-fa84-408a-8c19-25d27782dd90-1 00:34:29.538 --> 00:34:33.407 a bearing is not legally relevant for classification 9d9a0c61-fa84-408a-8c19-25d27782dd90-2 00:34:33.407 --> 00:34:37.421 purposes because many ball or roller bearing types are 9d9a0c61-fa84-408a-8c19-25d27782dd90-3 00:34:37.421 --> 00:34:41.800 manufactured using specific engineering and design criteria 9d9a0c61-fa84-408a-8c19-25d27782dd90-4 00:34:41.800 --> 00:34:45.960 and are purchased with a particular application in mind. 360fc4cd-1293-4217-a6bb-3920d217ff6d-0 00:34:48.520 --> 00:34:54.040 SO we just mentioned that the races are used in bearings. a84719c3-3b85-47d7-80d3-676aa3049099-0 00:34:54.720 --> 00:34:59.720 Are bearings recognized as being mechanical in nature? c3c7d143-a2ac-4e21-8411-9d6ed44f213b-0 00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:04.942 Again, if if you could just type in a yes or no in the chat box c3c7d143-a2ac-4e21-8411-9d6ed44f213b-1 00:35:04.942 --> 00:35:07.520 to see what everybody's opinion is. 2b273702-b43f-4f14-9f22-aa4eeb5113b7-0 00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:30.720 OK, everyone's saying yes, yes they are. fd3f3038-bc72-4301-bf5c-e475b94a9335-0 00:35:30.960 --> 00:35:36.310 Their purpose is to modify friction and they do so with the fd3f3038-bc72-4301-bf5c-e475b94a9335-1 00:35:36.310 --> 00:35:39.520 rotating elements inside the races. 5325c830-0f33-4822-ae71-a4d52281bf70-0 00:35:40.960 --> 00:35:45.142 Do you think the races are integral components of the 5325c830-0f33-4822-ae71-a4d52281bf70-1 00:35:45.142 --> 00:35:45.840 bearings? 322e48fc-19cc-43f6-9835-d3572c410cee-0 00:35:46.400 --> 00:35:47.280 What do you all think? 10b8d4df-3b8b-41ec-adca-49f05229f2f2-0 00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:01.960 Great. 7169769d-42cf-4d75-ac6c-76909174996c-0 00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:03.400 Yes, yes, yes. 33db64b3-0ab2-4682-b392-62ee3d9a1bed-0 00:36:03.680 --> 00:36:07.029 They hold the roller elements and they're regarded as the key 33db64b3-0ab2-4682-b392-62ee3d9a1bed-1 00:36:07.029 --> 00:36:08.920 component that minimizes friction. d937aaac-2b20-4974-86fb-02247c0877ee-0 00:36:09.360 --> 00:36:14.805 In fact, Headquarters ruling 731968, CBP explained here that d937aaac-2b20-4974-86fb-02247c0877ee-1 00:36:14.805 --> 00:36:20.071 races that feature precise pathways or roller elements are d937aaac-2b20-4974-86fb-02247c0877ee-2 00:36:20.071 --> 00:36:25.160 recognized as being critical components of the bearings. f055369f-a2b3-4daf-9ea4-d7dad411808f-0 00:36:25.160 --> 00:36:28.680 They're the races, they're the which the friction is minimized. cfd1e5f1-afa4-47d2-a1a7-cb38f0a03e02-0 00:36:29.080 --> 00:36:30.440 So nice job, everybody. 4bac3b87-360f-4663-ae8c-992da31e54e5-0 00:36:34.080 --> 00:36:36.280 So we know they're integral components. 286c0634-7a6e-4e81-8bda-ea0440e915f1-0 00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:40.240 So could they be classified in accordance with note 2A? bc55f29a-a29f-49ac-8565-c2595426e4be-0 00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:44.938 Well, if you look into Chapter 85, there's nothing that bc55f29a-a29f-49ac-8565-c2595426e4be-1 00:36:44.938 --> 00:36:49.298 provides for races by name or function in a specific heading, bc55f29a-a29f-49ac-8565-c2595426e4be-2 00:36:49.298 --> 00:36:49.720 right? ee32c54e-d74a-4cff-b284-6f028bc667d7-0 00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:55.838 But bearings are provided for within heading 8042, and heading ee32c54e-d74a-4cff-b284-6f028bc667d7-1 00:36:55.838 --> 00:37:01.120 8482 also provides for parts of ball or roller bearings. 0e0c7fe8-ce71-4732-a594-64771f2ffb93-0 00:37:01.160 --> 00:37:03.879 And we just had that discussion that it is an integral 0e0c7fe8-ce71-4732-a594-64771f2ffb93-1 00:37:03.879 --> 00:37:04.720 component, right? 5f251047-73b3-4d9c-8b8b-601e8338a0f3-0 00:37:04.720 --> 00:37:08.080 These races are critical to the function of the bearing. 7db03cfd-ad76-43e1-bd90-43ac9f9df03d-0 00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:14.354 This is why New York ruling N 197577 classified the races as 7db03cfd-ad76-43e1-bd90-43ac9f9df03d-1 00:37:14.354 --> 00:37:20.211 part of a ball bearing, I'm sorry, part of a roller bearing 7db03cfd-ad76-43e1-bd90-43ac9f9df03d-2 00:37:20.211 --> 00:37:24.800 within heading 8482 per note 2B to section 16. 7e03cc64-19bb-4a4a-8e77-c4179f255748-0 00:37:30.290 --> 00:37:36.450 All right, we now have a gasket used in a refrigerator. f16e452e-c40b-4157-b689-a65d8a2f95cf-0 00:37:38.290 --> 00:37:42.176 The importance of a refrigerator gasket is that it thermally f16e452e-c40b-4157-b689-a65d8a2f95cf-1 00:37:42.176 --> 00:37:45.809 insulates the refrigerator cabinet, which allows for the f16e452e-c40b-4157-b689-a65d8a2f95cf-2 00:37:45.809 --> 00:37:49.249 refrigerator to perform at an energy efficient level. 62f925b8-956f-47d5-9cc4-03e707060ed0-0 00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:54.029 And so here we have a gasket that consists of an outer PVC 62f925b8-956f-47d5-9cc4-03e707060ed0-1 00:37:54.029 --> 00:37:57.240 material with a flexible magnetic band insert. 3ef53dc5-634e-437f-8259-ee08bd549561-0 00:37:58.160 --> 00:38:01.974 This article is used indoors of residential and commercial 3ef53dc5-634e-437f-8259-ee08bd549561-1 00:38:01.974 --> 00:38:02.880 refrigerators. 79071d36-6197-41fd-954f-f5cdfa4af9ff-0 00:38:03.200 --> 00:38:07.443 The polymer material allows the gasket to found it as a seal and 79071d36-6197-41fd-954f-f5cdfa4af9ff-1 00:38:07.443 --> 00:38:11.360 the magnetic insert acts to hold the door shut as imported. bda7d5a4-0630-471b-b9b1-ff0b376ca8fc-0 00:38:11.480 --> 00:38:16.208 The gaskets are cut to size and shaped to fit a specific bda7d5a4-0630-471b-b9b1-ff0b376ca8fc-1 00:38:16.208 --> 00:38:18.200 refrigerator or freezer. d503cf8b-edc4-4acd-b69b-b963096cbc4a-0 00:38:19.640 --> 00:38:23.648 All right, so I want everybody to take a little time and look d503cf8b-edc4-4acd-b69b-b963096cbc4a-1 00:38:23.648 --> 00:38:27.657 at the note and tell me, do you think this is something where d503cf8b-edc4-4acd-b69b-b963096cbc4a-2 00:38:27.657 --> 00:38:29.080 note 2B is applicable? c24b9f8f-6e4e-4704-8c4f-66cec26fd6b4-0 00:38:29.080 --> 00:38:30.880 And if you do, what is the heading? 8336759e-255f-4de6-8857-2846a4ae0a4d-0 00:38:31.160 --> 00:38:33.560 And if not, where else would we put this? 73974e0c-a3f4-478f-b1c8-42aee103184d-0 00:38:33.560 --> 00:38:35.280 Would we classify this as a gasket? 5610a2a4-76bc-4d2f-ada5-c74237d3c04b-0 00:38:35.280 --> 00:38:41.240 Would we stop our analysis right up at the header under 8484? d34769a7-bb29-4881-82cb-788654bac8d7-0 00:38:41.240 --> 00:38:44.240 Or is Note 2 to section 16 even applicable? 2163f39d-214d-412c-a6b6-5ca2b5b83164-0 00:38:44.240 --> 00:38:46.520 Are we looking at something that's a composite good? 3ff5276c-d8da-46d5-aee3-e417160011ec-0 00:38:46.880 --> 00:38:47.640 What do y'all think? 93c29b6a-b09d-479f-a953-d8e7c3762407-0 00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:51.040 No. 7ee250e8-a943-4608-944b-7ce2823a0b59-0 00:38:51.040 --> 00:39:27.560 Chapter 398041, no composite good. 147d24f0-bfee-4565-b8d4-4220be31b5d7-0 00:39:27.960 --> 00:39:28.440 OK. 4d69482e-d99d-4390-b142-1625dbe4ba44-0 00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:33.400 And heading for refrigerator, yes, 8418 is a part. b72c240f-2eec-49e5-89f4-2300449ecf3e-0 00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:33.880 OK. cf672013-71d0-4659-a062-b69af9320e30-0 00:39:39.900 --> 00:39:48.580 Well, headquarters determined that this was indeed classified cf672013-71d0-4659-a062-b69af9320e30-1 00:39:48.580 --> 00:39:54.740 as a part of a refrigerator in 8418, right? 1ae7a424-d4e3-4462-bdc7-a3b6b02ad3e3-0 00:39:55.400 --> 00:40:01.960 So this originally came in and I wrote the ruling up for it and 1ae7a424-d4e3-4462-bdc7-a3b6b02ad3e3-1 00:40:01.960 --> 00:40:03.600 it was modified. ec25e90b-27ca-4ab7-88d6-53663160a7c5-0 00:40:04.240 --> 00:40:08.960 I knew that it was not heading 8484 because if you look into ec25e90b-27ca-4ab7-88d6-53663160a7c5-1 00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:13.757 the explanatory notes, there's certain things in there that I ec25e90b-27ca-4ab7-88d6-53663160a7c5-2 00:40:13.757 --> 00:40:17.240 mentioned earlier that you have to consider. ea33ae57-41cb-4939-990e-679498e1f7b4-0 00:40:17.240 --> 00:40:19.866 One of them is material composition, based on the ea33ae57-41cb-4939-990e-679498e1f7b4-1 00:40:19.866 --> 00:40:22.440 material composition of the gasket that we have. 26b27c65-7b74-4583-bbb0-a06925b97f01-0 00:40:22.840 --> 00:40:25.680 It didn't meet the criteria for that. 199cba71-056b-419b-80f7-15e8274cf76a-0 00:40:25.680 --> 00:40:28.920 So that was no longer of consideration, right. cc957a11-8f1a-41f6-b65d-3ecfd689abb3-0 00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:30.000 So that was out. 943b21d0-654a-45b8-8b08-f93197462f9f-0 00:40:30.600 --> 00:40:35.048 But when I first reviewed this, what I didn't know that or it 943b21d0-654a-45b8-8b08-f93197462f9f-1 00:40:35.048 --> 00:40:39.640 wasn't revealed to me was that they were cut to shape and size. fafaf770-34d4-4d79-8eb6-f37a26b9da78-0 00:40:39.880 --> 00:40:42.969 So when I ruled on it, I thought the same thing as many of y'all fafaf770-34d4-4d79-8eb6-f37a26b9da78-1 00:40:42.969 --> 00:40:43.160 did. 975d30ef-b404-4744-8f26-05932d902f13-0 00:40:43.280 --> 00:40:46.715 I thought, I think a few of y'all said that it was more of a 975d30ef-b404-4744-8f26-05932d902f13-1 00:40:46.715 --> 00:40:47.560 composite good. a4a0f4fc-bf0e-4bec-b1e2-3d138950eefd-0 00:40:48.120 --> 00:40:52.649 I thought the same thing, but when it was, there was a request a4a0f4fc-bf0e-4bec-b1e2-3d138950eefd-1 00:40:52.649 --> 00:40:57.250 for reconsideration and it was sent up to headquarters and then a4a0f4fc-bf0e-4bec-b1e2-3d138950eefd-2 00:40:57.250 --> 00:41:01.779 it was revealed that no, it was cut to shape and that it could a4a0f4fc-bf0e-4bec-b1e2-3d138950eefd-3 00:41:01.779 --> 00:41:04.440 only be used for refrigerator doors. 104819cb-eeeb-4b31-a70f-6d19e53b0140-0 00:41:04.720 --> 00:41:08.000 And based on that, headquarters ruled in that direction. d34a767d-eb3d-4fe0-b9e3-6c8bb07b60c3-0 00:41:08.840 --> 00:41:12.573 And I like this ruling because it it really goes into why it d34a767d-eb3d-4fe0-b9e3-6c8bb07b60c3-1 00:41:12.573 --> 00:41:13.920 was considered a part. 079337a9-c4d9-4c58-8b15-ae7da819cd3e-0 00:41:13.920 --> 00:41:17.317 And that's something you have to really consider when you're 079337a9-c4d9-4c58-8b15-ae7da819cd3e-1 00:41:17.317 --> 00:41:18.320 applying note two. 22a9dfc6-83e9-4e8c-9a0b-209bbf3d2c6c-0 00:41:18.320 --> 00:41:22.689 It really takes in a a variety of took in the header, which you 22a9dfc6-83e9-4e8c-9a0b-209bbf3d2c6c-1 00:41:22.689 --> 00:41:23.440 have to do. de43b776-cfbb-40e9-a401-4e959ebb881a-0 00:41:23.440 --> 00:41:26.880 And then it went down from there, right, the sub note. ad2267d5-d235-494a-9f34-397cf1c9d452-0 00:41:27.600 --> 00:41:30.960 So if you didn't get it right, don't feel bad. 3f153d80-608e-4c84-85ac-cc4de2d5eea3-0 00:41:31.160 --> 00:41:34.214 I didn't either based on the, you know, I based it on the 3f153d80-608e-4c84-85ac-cc4de2d5eea3-1 00:41:34.214 --> 00:41:35.320 original information. 646bfa5c-bffc-4c31-8c17-15ded69acd62-0 00:41:35.320 --> 00:41:36.680 There wasn't a whole lot there. a7134abe-4473-4586-8ffe-cd3ae6c2459b-0 00:41:36.680 --> 00:41:41.140 Just basically the facts, except that last part was missing and a7134abe-4473-4586-8ffe-cd3ae6c2459b-1 00:41:41.140 --> 00:41:45.183 headquarters decided to go in a different, in a different a7134abe-4473-4586-8ffe-cd3ae6c2459b-2 00:41:45.183 --> 00:41:45.880 direction. 67084636-e918-43b7-b661-4c04300bc68a-0 00:41:50.560 --> 00:41:50.920 All right. 3fa42179-58d9-4daa-bea8-69a29a09000f-0 00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:53.920 So in summary, it's important to first understand the product 3fa42179-58d9-4daa-bea8-69a29a09000f-1 00:41:53.920 --> 00:41:54.840 you're classifying. af3c6011-13b0-4d67-979a-6e7a1690e56d-0 00:41:55.200 --> 00:41:56.280 What is the item? df10924a-f689-4e80-be50-38ea5f6383fc-0 00:41:56.400 --> 00:41:57.760 Is the item complete? 0fcbd631-db79-4054-ae19-d0190981a78a-0 00:41:57.920 --> 00:41:58.760 How does it work? 9adec337-9edd-4dcb-bb68-532372426d5e-0 00:41:59.120 --> 00:42:01.909 I mean, these are just a few questions that will give you 9adec337-9edd-4dcb-bb68-532372426d5e-1 00:42:01.909 --> 00:42:03.160 insight about the product. 7d598189-b457-47c7-955b-389879b157ea-0 00:42:03.880 --> 00:42:07.414 And then from there, it's important to understand the GR 7d598189-b457-47c7-955b-389879b157ea-1 00:42:07.414 --> 00:42:07.600 IS. 010137cb-fdf7-4c2a-b8f0-a5b28f920f65-0 00:42:07.960 --> 00:42:11.524 The GR IS are part of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule and 010137cb-fdf7-4c2a-b8f0-a5b28f920f65-1 00:42:11.524 --> 00:42:13.400 are legally binding worldwide. 006013d8-67c4-4a61-92cd-e33b3066a637-0 00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:15.600 There are six GR IS. bed95f73-f816-4403-bc97-f2508a2fcae4-0 00:42:15.640 --> 00:42:18.080 They have to be applied in the order presented. 4e523b6c-022d-49a3-923d-6f024ebf1ce8-0 00:42:18.680 --> 00:42:21.737 They go from simple, straightforward classification 4e523b6c-022d-49a3-923d-6f024ebf1ce8-1 00:42:21.737 --> 00:42:23.560 scenarios to more complex work. b1149e49-20a7-486c-9f81-c067fc994724-0 00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:28.640 In other words, we have to use these rules in numerical order. f400b24e-6855-4a08-9672-4c6c8ebe15b3-0 00:42:30.320 --> 00:42:33.320 Along with the GR is we have established precedent. edc80533-de15-4535-87b8-a2dfa73592f2-0 00:42:33.800 --> 00:42:36.332 If there's a ruling out there for the same or similar edc80533-de15-4535-87b8-a2dfa73592f2-1 00:42:36.332 --> 00:42:39.194 merchandise, we need to take that into consideration when we edc80533-de15-4535-87b8-a2dfa73592f2-2 00:42:39.194 --> 00:42:40.320 make our determinations. c8bcbcba-0500-44c4-8d53-17dc9c61cd2d-0 00:42:40.800 --> 00:42:44.471 Remember, those rulings are legally binding, whether they're c8bcbcba-0500-44c4-8d53-17dc9c61cd2d-1 00:42:44.471 --> 00:42:47.000 headquarters rulings or New York rulings. de2e97e7-276a-4ba6-9cc0-5e3dd2e00631-0 00:42:48.080 --> 00:42:51.627 Also keep in mind the decisions from the Court of International de2e97e7-276a-4ba6-9cc0-5e3dd2e00631-1 00:42:51.627 --> 00:42:51.960 Trade. 021653f9-74a7-4899-af20-b743d8603a69-0 00:42:52.040 --> 00:42:55.839 The Court of International Trade is the judicial body which makes 021653f9-74a7-4899-af20-b743d8603a69-1 00:42:55.839 --> 00:42:58.200 final decisions related to importations. 698f2e4b-8acd-4301-a546-714c9e62f506-0 00:42:58.920 --> 00:43:01.680 So for example, let's say I. 0c4c95eb-6342-44d5-b0c5-6446a5d19c1e-0 00:43:02.560 --> 00:43:05.856 Well, the previous really right, I wrote it, the importer 0c4c95eb-6342-44d5-b0c5-6446a5d19c1e-1 00:43:05.856 --> 00:43:09.040 disagreed with my decision, it went up to headquarters. 52ae540b-c1b6-4307-8754-4e630dd8d9d4-0 00:43:09.160 --> 00:43:13.160 It stopped at that level because headquarters modified it. 02855320-c43f-4b8f-bcf0-ab2f1f59fc54-0 00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:17.461 But let's say they agreed, then the requester has the option to 02855320-c43f-4b8f-bcf0-ab2f1f59fc54-1 00:43:17.461 --> 00:43:21.316 file a case with the Court of International Trade and then 02855320-c43f-4b8f-bcf0-ab2f1f59fc54-2 00:43:21.316 --> 00:43:24.648 whatever the Court of International judge decides, 02855320-c43f-4b8f-bcf0-ab2f1f59fc54-3 00:43:24.648 --> 00:43:27.000 then that's what we would abide by. 3bb50b2b-f610-4d3a-b66e-86d0524631b4-0 00:43:27.440 --> 00:43:31.470 So it's important to look up court cases when you're 3bb50b2b-f610-4d3a-b66e-86d0524631b4-1 00:43:31.470 --> 00:43:32.840 considering items. 47129260-f0da-4ad3-a1d0-81196f1decfc-0 00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:40.156 And I just wanted to share some references that I use quite 47129260-f0da-4ad3-a1d0-81196f1decfc-1 00:43:40.156 --> 00:43:42.920 often, probably on a daily basis. 65ad68f0-7c01-4ebd-8622-1433f214fb4f-0 00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:44.720 So they're just something to keep in mind. 85d252aa-7899-41da-8ae4-f81ecb468a73-0 00:43:44.720 --> 00:43:46.520 They help classify articles. b946ec1f-3193-49db-9346-62b526e04eda-0 00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:48.640 I mean, you can't do it alone, right? 26e30eb3-407a-40f1-a232-a554ca351c18-0 00:43:48.640 --> 00:43:51.080 I mean, you need, everyone needs a little bit of help. ca8b4ef1-d18f-4fcf-9016-e3b1a06907a4-0 00:43:54.000 --> 00:43:56.720 And last, here's my contact information. 3228590c-e6e4-48d6-9e1e-cf6ac996d1d0-0 00:43:56.720 --> 00:44:01.659 If you have any questions after the webinar, you can send me an

f9364036-9a0b-40eb-8c52-a5e4623cd3a1-0 00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:08.236 You can also send him an e-mail or you can send us both an f9364036-9a0b-40eb-8c52-a5e4623cd3a1-1 00:44:08.236 --> 00:44:09.640 e-mail, whatever you prefer. 7517e6ef-c319-4583-9625-ecc5d2c8d4bd-0 00:44:10.280 --> 00:44:12.160 So I'll open it up. 30c8d594-95e9-4cf6-9224-6f845c49d24f-0 00:44:12.160 --> 00:44:14.080 Does anybody have any questions? 4eeef08d-0963-489d-a48a-eebad83dc08c-0 00:44:18.920 --> 00:44:20.200 So we just received one. 5b186d86-853f-40b1-b025-acf494db188e-0 00:44:21.080 --> 00:44:25.519 When the CNT rules against ACBP or against CBP, the rulings are 5b186d86-853f-40b1-b025-acf494db188e-1 00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:26.560 revoked, right? ff4f83d4-b174-4f4e-b4ad-d2bfa31302b7-0 00:44:29.720 --> 00:44:33.640 Well, if, if the court is looking at a ruling, yes. 438685d9-a585-41a7-8883-02054bd8c7b9-0 00:44:33.640 --> 00:44:36.612 But normally the court is looking at the classification of 438685d9-a585-41a7-8883-02054bd8c7b9-1 00:44:36.612 --> 00:44:37.520 an article, right? f60e52f9-e022-4126-8a15-5837b39787fb-0 00:44:37.520 --> 00:44:41.849 So if it's like it hasn't been ruled on, then that would be the f60e52f9-e022-4126-8a15-5837b39787fb-1 00:44:41.849 --> 00:44:43.000 one that applies. 531731d3-4d61-4c53-975e-177bd01515a8-0 00:44:43.000 --> 00:44:47.482 But if it's if there's a ruling, then yes, it's whatever the 531731d3-4d61-4c53-975e-177bd01515a8-1 00:44:47.482 --> 00:44:49.320 court decides at the end. d74f43cf-3c0b-4c3f-8dbe-215103f03389-0 00:44:51.080 --> 00:44:51.400 OK. c57088e5-7494-459f-894e-9403aa8a9075-0 00:44:51.400 --> 00:44:53.600 And someone is asking to see Slide 8. 7a221ba7-a3da-4fcb-86f1-a219c40b1629-0 00:44:54.560 --> 00:44:55.600 Slide 8, Sure. 543d1386-273b-48cf-b1d0-5f649be9448e-0 00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:12.280 The star of the show, No 2B to section 16. 26252438-0044-4184-af62-d527cb44d3f3-0 00:45:12.800 --> 00:45:14.280 OK, OK. 6e2640fe-fbda-4ce6-92f7-95f0e9c316ca-0 00:45:15.640 --> 00:45:16.720 Then we have a question. 0fdc9e6d-f19a-426d-b9bc-9403f712ca12-0 00:45:16.960 --> 00:45:18.400 It's about weight question. 9e1d3d70-2b1f-4fe8-8de0-d049eacff1a0-0 00:45:18.680 --> 00:45:22.122 Are there any classification stipulations regarding the 9e1d3d70-2b1f-4fe8-8de0-d049eacff1a0-1 00:45:22.122 --> 00:45:25.810 weight of an item, For example, a low weight item such as a 9e1d3d70-2b1f-4fe8-8de0-d049eacff1a0-2 00:45:25.810 --> 00:45:29.560 steel plate for a pump under 1 kilogram in parentheses, it's 9e1d3d70-2b1f-4fe8-8de0-d049eacff1a0-3 00:45:29.560 --> 00:45:30.360 also 2.2 lbs. 52bf3c7c-9e6b-40d1-9612-2c8dd08e18b8-0 00:45:30.640 --> 00:45:36.193 Is it classified as a part of the pump 843191 or as or a 52bf3c7c-9e6b-40d1-9612-2c8dd08e18b8-1 00:45:36.193 --> 00:45:38.240 heading 7326 article? f9c662e8-5295-4254-9114-b6382f2a685a-0 00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:43.871 So 8413 doesn't have any weight stipulations, but again, it f9c662e8-5295-4254-9114-b6382f2a685a-1 00:45:43.871 --> 00:45:45.840 would it it's called a plate. 2caec8b2-b2df-466f-8f5c-3be4916b1320-0 00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:48.120 I'm not sure how that works. cd67e80f-38d0-47d2-9131-5f2b4a3781c5-0 00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:49.920 That seems kind of general. c80ec3d4-6906-4bd6-aa02-0ff20c5f85c8-0 00:45:49.920 --> 00:45:54.931 So we'd have to know what it does relative to the pump to, to c80ec3d4-6906-4bd6-aa02-0ff20c5f85c8-1 00:45:54.931 --> 00:45:57.760 even consider whether it's a part. dab0e929-1e62-495c-8260-cb3aff2bfa78-0 00:45:57.760 --> 00:45:59.520 Maybe it's not a part right. 00c8be6a-c418-4c38-a28e-4e4a7837c5fc-0 00:46:00.520 --> 00:46:03.440 It maybe it's a mount or something exterior to it. 56b299b4-4fe5-4f04-8134-a5ddaa7c3fa9-0 00:46:03.960 --> 00:46:08.080 And so there I need a lot more information than that. 82880c71-a2ae-4fb2-b063-5c3e0799b830-0 00:46:08.200 --> 00:46:11.600 But you know, there is no weight stipulations. 517e9080-7500-48cc-8a9d-b9cc348144bb-0 00:46:11.920 --> 00:46:15.673 OK, Another question, would a valve made-up of a metal core 517e9080-7500-48cc-8a9d-b9cc348144bb-1 00:46:15.673 --> 00:46:19.490 encapsulated in rubber fall within the exclusion of note one 517e9080-7500-48cc-8a9d-b9cc348144bb-2 00:46:19.490 --> 00:46:21.680 for articles of vulcanized rubber? f6fda0fa-9d4f-4e74-affe-219208927541-0 00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:29.654 So in that case, I would need to know the percentage of it and f6fda0fa-9d4f-4e74-affe-219208927541-1 00:46:29.654 --> 00:46:36.028 then I would have a conversation with, I believe it's NIS 137, f6fda0fa-9d4f-4e74-affe-219208927541-2 00:46:36.028 --> 00:46:37.039 Christina. 7f3bfb8b-bcce-405b-866e-773f500d75f2-0 00:46:37.040 --> 00:46:38.120 I think, yeah. c2681f60-a5cb-4532-b494-e5f259aa141f-0 00:46:38.160 --> 00:46:42.433 Then we'd have a conversation about it and see how that c2681f60-a5cb-4532-b494-e5f259aa141f-1 00:46:42.433 --> 00:46:47.088 particular component functions relative to the the item as a c2681f60-a5cb-4532-b494-e5f259aa141f-2 00:46:47.088 --> 00:46:48.080 whole, right? 5cf0073c-6b2a-49a1-84df-65349825f853-0 00:46:48.080 --> 00:46:52.146 Because, you know, it's just like, I think there's some 5cf0073c-6b2a-49a1-84df-65349825f853-1 00:46:52.146 --> 00:46:56.285 bearings that where they're ceramic, they're I think the 5cf0073c-6b2a-49a1-84df-65349825f853-2 00:46:56.285 --> 00:46:59.480 rollers are ceramic, but the races are not. f8bf1121-14a0-4a6b-8138-ee8b67779609-0 00:46:59.800 --> 00:47:04.080 And those are not classified as ceramic articles. fb90182e-208b-49fe-9dfd-72808c38b801-0 00:47:04.080 --> 00:47:07.704 They're classified as a bearing, but I can't remember which one fb90182e-208b-49fe-9dfd-72808c38b801-1 00:47:07.704 --> 00:47:09.800 exactly is the ceramic aspect of it. c1ada564-9c02-489c-b83c-3570dbc87d4d-0 00:47:10.080 --> 00:47:12.280 But no, we'd have to have a conversation. 4d369b74-775d-48bd-9feb-b2ddbed2ec7b-0 00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:15.080 So not that's not just us. 9e13b3da-cc4d-403a-b4d5-00b4cf5241ff-0 00:47:15.160 --> 00:47:15.720 Yes. c0646664-ec47-4dba-bfc4-45d60206d373-0 00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:16.640 OK. 54eeb874-6c86-4430-b81a-abcc75a7a916-0 00:47:16.640 --> 00:47:21.323 It's a maybe someone is asking if you can show the slide after 54eeb874-6c86-4430-b81a-abcc75a7a916-1 00:47:21.323 --> 00:47:24.000 the case, one after the first case. c72b8ead-c375-40ef-9ee3-fae146df7efe-0 00:47:25.560 --> 00:47:36.720 OK, is this it or is this it? dfce5f97-2bed-4798-927b-26d8c46fe4e5-0 00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:43.200 I'll leave it here and if it's not and then let me know. 131aac3c-8dd4-47be-937b-236b4eb89243-0 00:47:43.760 --> 00:47:44.080 OK. 73029bbd-f888-4c52-84be-c8555b30b46a-0 00:47:44.080

78bd5cbe-cfcd-4e00-84af-57f4178552f5-1 00:47:51.816 --> 00:47:53.680 for a forklift be classified? 2bb53857-9455-44ff-9e69-0076ab53540b-0 00:47:54.720 --> 00:47:59.040 Whoa, that's one item or two separate items. 9f56d16e-bb19-4187-a283-4887adbdea5c-0 00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:01.760 Good question. 38944496-84d6-46ce-8c34-71ee79dd19bf-0 00:48:02.240 --> 00:48:05.586 If Lisa, if you don't mind putting that in, if it's one 38944496-84d6-46ce-8c34-71ee79dd19bf-1 00:48:05.586 --> 00:48:07.200 item or two separate items. 72d3d959-e0cc-4f88-9bf9-57115b50b80a-0 00:48:12.430 --> 00:48:13.870 In the meantime, we have another question. 95c7fa4d-093a-47d1-9204-7376992d16ac-0 00:48:14.150 --> 00:48:17.817 Does an item have to meet both stipulations of the parts test 95c7fa4d-093a-47d1-9204-7376992d16ac-1 00:48:17.817 --> 00:48:21.011 to be classified as a part, meaning both the integral 95c7fa4d-093a-47d1-9204-7376992d16ac-2 00:48:21.011 --> 00:48:24.737 constituent component test as well as the dedicated solely for 95c7fa4d-093a-47d1-9204-7376992d16ac-3 00:48:24.737 --> 00:48:25.270 use test? 35567cf2-4358-4d83-8b1a-143cf1a93d42-0 00:48:25.830 -->

are two separate ones. 87407719-aa9f-4f05-ab95-c706a63d2fc9-0 00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:38.280 So one is a flat steel washer, where would that be classified? 6d620cc0-dae2-4c03-8b1e-9d69ab08a881-0 00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:43.284 And then transmission for forklift, again, if there's no 6d620cc0-dae2-4c03-8b1e-9d69ab08a881-1 00:48:43.284 --> 00:48:49.032 like features or characteristics that make it identifiable to the 6d620cc0-dae2-4c03-8b1e-9d69ab08a881-2 00:48:49.032 --> 00:48:54.431 end article, that's probably something that I would reach out 6d620cc0-dae2-4c03-8b1e-9d69ab08a881-3 00:48:54.431 --> 00:48:57.480 to somebody that works in section. ec098515-a381-443a-86f2-bb574915f94f-0 00:48:58.120 --> 00:48:59.080 Is it 15? e64e85e4-764e-4f40-a685-19b02c4e687b-0 00:48:59.800 --> 00:49:04.102 I would probably reach out to them provided it's metal or e64e85e4-764e-4f40-a685-19b02c4e687b-1 00:49:04.102 --> 00:49:07.440 exactly somebody just wrote No2 of generals. bc493c7e-8c08-4352-84d0-f6686f2d2787-0 00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:07.960 Exactly. 1c190d9f-9d8a-40dc-a2ef-7bbc59efecc0-0 00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:09.640 That's if it's of metal. 4754af82-e54d-4f16-903f-c1dee3969666-0 00:49:12.400 --> 00:49:15.800 OK, and someone is asking if you Jennifer. ef9cb494-c1cd-4ccc-9140-4942f26f5e9c-0 00:49:18.480 --> 00:49:20.400 Oh, sorry, did you get to the other one? d8d0a525-5534-4635-8780-0822efdeec75-0 00:49:20.400 --> 00:49:24.466 I not yet the, the forklift, the forklift transmission for a d8d0a525-5534-4635-8780-0822efdeec75-1 00:49:24.466 --> 00:49:27.200 forklift, a transmission for a forklift. d486ebf3-e3f2-465c-9341-f0f5e7d2b9b6-0 00:49:27.240 --> 00:49:30.200 Again, I mean, that's such a just a big item. 46c232ca-9abd-42fc-82b8-d9f9d6487c30-0 00:49:30.600 --> 00:49:33.885 And I, I don't want to speculate if it's just the whole 46c232ca-9abd-42fc-82b8-d9f9d6487c30-1 00:49:33.885 --> 00:49:36.760 transmission or if it's just a gearbox in there. 4c9969e2-c5db-42cb-a5d3-07741e894625-0 00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:37.920 It really just depends. 3997e802-a2be-49b9-998b-33daa8397be0-0 00:49:38.200 --> 00:49:43.125 And that's a conversation I would have with, I think NIS 103 3997e802-a2be-49b9-998b-33daa8397be0-1 00:49:43.125 --> 00:49:46.920 and we'd see what is exactly being brought in.
