The amendment reduces the scope of both products and inputs for which expanded authority is requested. The amended application requests authority for EPI to elect non-privileged foreign (NPF) status (19 CFR 146.42) on the foreign-sourced materials listed below for EPI to use internally in producing ink subsequently incorporated into EPI’s production of inkjet printer cartridges. The amended application does not request authority for EPI to elect NPF status on these materials when EPI makes entry on bulk ink (rather than on finished inkjet printer cartridges). The amended application lists the following materials sourced from abroad for which it is requesting to admit in NPF status: potassium hydroxide; acrylic alcohols (surfactants); 2-ethyl, 2propane-1,3diol; glycerin; 2,2 oxydiethanol (diethylene glycol, digol); ether-alcohols (penetrants); adipic acid; triethanolamine & its salts (other emulsifiers); amino acids (stabilizers); N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone; 2-pyrriolidone; benzotriazole; direct dyes & preparations based on these direct dyes (yellow, black, cyan, brown, orange, violet, red, green, magenta, other); preparations based on carbon black; paints and varnish based on acrylic or vinyl polymers (solvents); surface active agents; organic solvents/thinners (containing 5%–25% by weight of one or more aromatic or modified aromatic substances); chemical mixtures (biocides, surfactants); and, plastics, polymers of styrene (duty rates range from free to 6.5%). The amended application also requests authority for EPI to elect privileged foreign (PF) status (19 CFR 146.41) on dispersions of pigments in plastics used in the proposed activity.
