Receipt of Domestic Interested Party 

Petition Concerning Tariff 

Classification of Glass Optical 

Preforms 

AGENCY: Customs and Border Protection, 

Department of Homeland Security. 

ACTION: Notice of receipt of domestic 

interested party petition; solicitation of 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Customs and 

Border Protection (CBP) has received a 

petition submitted on behalf of a 

domestic interested party requesting the 

reclassification under the Harmonized 

Tariff Schedule of the United States 

(HTSUS) of glass optical preforms. 

CBP’s current position is that glass 

optical preforms are classifiable dutyfree in subheading 7002.20.1000, 

HTSUS, as glass rods of fused quartz or 

other fused silica, unworked. Petitioner 

maintains that this classification is 

incorrect because the optical fiber 

preforms consist of a glass core rod that 

has been ‘‘worked’’ by the addition of a 

layer of cladding glass to the core rod. 

Petitioner asserts that subheading 

7020.00.6000, HTSUS, other articles of 

glass, other, represents the correct 

classification. The 2007 rate of duty 

under this provision is 5 percent ad 

valorem. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before May 29, 2007.
