tons of ground barite (HTSUS
2511.10.10) annually, primarily for the
U.S. market. The foreign component
that would be used in production
(representing approximately 95 percent
of total material inputs) is raw barite
(HTSUS 2511.10.50), dutiable at $1.25
per metric ton.
FTZ procedures could exempt
Excalibar from customs duty payments
on the foreign component used in
export production (less than 1 percent
of shipments). On domestic sales,
Excalibar would be able to choose the
duty rate that applies to the finished
product (duty–free) for the foreign input
noted above that has a higher duty rate.
The company may also realize certain
logistical/procedural savings as well as
savings on materials that become scrap/
waste during manufacturing.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions (original
and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the
Board’s Executive Secretary at the
address listed below. The closing period
for their receipt is January 2, 2009. For
