subject to quota. This document invites

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

A petition has been filed under 

section 516, Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1516), on behalf of 

the U.S. Beet Sugar Anticircumvention 

Coalition (USBSAC) representing over 

85 percent of U.S. sugar beet processing 

capacity, requesting that Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) reclassify 

imported sugar beet thick juice, as 

classified in New York Ruling letter 

(NY) J84482, dated October 21, 2003. 

CBP has classified this product under 

subheading 1702.90.4000, Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States, 

(HTSUS), which provides for: ‘‘Other 

sugars * * * sugar syrups not 

containing added flavoring or coloring 

matter * * * other * * * derived from 

sugar cane or sugar beets * * * other 

* * * other’’, and has a general duty 

rate of 0.35 cents per liter, and is not 

subject to tariff-rate quota restrictions. 

The petition contends that sugar beet 

thick juice is sugar, competes directly 

with sugar, and should be subject to 

tariff-rate quota restrictions. 

Classification under the HTSUS is 

determined in accordance with the 

General Rules of Interpretation (GRIs). 

GRI 1 provides that the classification of 

goods shall be determined according to 

the terms of the headings of the tariff 

schedule and any relative Section or
