Imports charged to these category limits for

to the levels set forth in this directive.

The limits set forth above are subject to

adjustment in the future pursuant to the ATC

In carrying out the above directions, the

Commissioner of Customs should construe

entry into the United States for consumption

to include entry for consumption into the

The Committee for the Implementation of

these actions fall within the foreign affairs

exception of the rulemaking provisions of 5

U.S.C. 553(a)(1).
