BACKGROUND:
Title V of the Trade and Development
Act of 2000 (the Act) created two tariff
rate quotas (TRQs), providing for
temporary reductions in the import
duties on limited quantities of two
categories of worsted wool fabrics
suitable for use in making suits, suittype jackets, or trousers: (1) For worsted
wool fabric with average fiber diameters
greater than 18.5 microns (Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS) heading 9902.51.11); and (2) for
worsted wool fabric with average fiber
diameters of 18.5 microns or less (HTS
heading 9902.51.12). On August 6, 2002,
President Bush signed into law the
Trade Act of 2002, which includes
several amendments to Title V of the
Act. On December 3, 2004, the Act was
further amended pursuant to the
Miscellaneous Trade Act of 2004, Public
Law 108-429. The 2004 amendment
included authority for the Department
to allocate a TRQ for new HTS category,
HTS 9902.51.16. This HTS category
refers to worsted wool fabric with
average fiber diameter of 18.5 microns
or less. The amendment provided that
HTS 9902.51.16 is for the benefit of
persons (including firms, corporations,
or other legal entities) who weave such
worsted wool fabric in the United States
that is suitable for making men’s and
boys’ suits. The TRQ for HTS
9902.51.16 provided for temporary
reductions in the import duties on
2,000,000 square meters annually for
2005 and 2006. The amendment
requires that the TRQ be allocated to
persons who weave worsted wool fabric
with average fiber diameter of 18.5
microns or less, which is suitable for
use in making men’s and boys’ suits, in
the United States. On August 17, 2006,
the Act was further amended pursuant
to the Pension Protection Act of 2006,
Public Law 109-280, which extended
the TRQ for HTS 9902.51.16 through
2009.
On October 24, 2005, the Department
adopted final regulations establishing
procedures for allocating the TRQ. See
70 FR 61363; 19 CFR 335. In order to
be eligible for an allocation, an
applicant must submit an application on
the form provided at https://
web.ita.doc.gov/tacgi/wooltrq.nsf/
