1802-00 Aluminum smelting
Applies to establishments engaged in the primary smelting of
				aluminum from alumina using an electrolytic reduction process. This
				classification includes the alloying and casting of sheet ingots, T-ingots,
				rolling ingots, notched ingots, sows, pigs, extrusion logs, extrusion billets
				and other primary production shapes when performed by a primary producer
				subject to this classification. Aluminum is produced from alumina. Alumina is
				extracted from bauxite which is an ore found in the earth's crust. Bauxite
				contains approximately 50% aluminum oxide (alumina) together with iron oxide,
				silica, and titanium oxide. The aluminum smelting process is two-fold; first,
				pure aluminum oxide is produced, then the aluminum is decomposed from the
				oxygen by an electrolytic treatment. The process is complex, labor intensive
				and power intensive. The use of an electric current causes pure aluminum to go
				to the cathode (part of the smelting structure) and accumulates as a layer
				floating on the molten salt in a large vat. This aluminum has a purity of
				99.99% and is removed from time to time and cast into suitable shapes from
				molds.
This classification excludes secondary processors who do not
				reduce aluminum from alumina, but whose principle business is casting, rolling,
				extruding, foiling or recycling aluminum alloys from molten aluminum, primary
				production shapes or used scrap and dross which are to be reported separately
				in the applicable classification; ore reduction which is to be reported
				separately in classification 1701; and open pit or underground mining
				operations which are to be reported separately in the classification applicable
				to the mining being performed.

2004-21 Iron or steel merchants; wire rope and cable
				dealers
Applies to establishments engaged as iron or steel merchants or
				as dealers of wire rope, cable, or metal conduit. This classification includes
				the merchandising of nonferrous metals such as, but not limited to, copper,
				brass, or aluminum. This classification is distinguished from scrap metal
				dealers in classification 0604 who deal primarily in used metal as opposed to
				merchants in classification 2004 who sell new goods. Iron or steel merchants
				receive metal in the form of beams, sheets, plates, bars, rods, pipe, rounds,
				channels, angles, tubes, or coils from the mills which they unload with
				overhead cranes, and store them in their shop or yard. Using power equipment
				such as shears, hacksaws, drills, benders, and cutting torches, they are cut,
				sheared, and formed to customer specifications. Wire rope and cable dealers use
				coilers to wind the wire rope or cable from large spools onto smaller spools,
				and use saws or other cutting tools to cut it to length and large hydraulic
				presses to attach sockets, pulleys and other hardware to wire rope to form
				rigging used by the fishing, logging, and construction industry.

Applies to establishments engaged in providing bonded warehouse
				services at the customer's location. Field bonding involves appropriating a

				merchandise that is involved in the transaction, issue a receipt (the receipt
				is presented as collateral for the loan), and ensure its security and value for
				the length of the contract. The field bonding company is not responsible for
				the maintenance of the facility and doesn't become involved in handling, moving
				or shipping the goods. Work contemplated by this classification is limited to
				employees who catalog the goods being held, security guards, and clerical help
				employed at the secured location.
This classification excludes drivers who are to be reported
				separately in classification 1102.

				be "bonded" in that they can assure their customers that goods regulated by the
				Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, or goods awaiting inspection by U.S.
				Customs, will remain secured. This type of bonding is similar in that it is an
				assurance of value and safekeeping, but differs from classification 2008 in
				that the goods are delivered to, and held at, the warehouse company's own
				facility.
