Title: Changes in Procedures for the Florence Agreement Program
Abstract: The action amends the ITA regulations governing the duty-exemption allocations for watch producers and duty-refund benefits for watch and jewelry producers in the United States insular possessions (the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands). Title 15 CFR 303 is amended by making technical changes required by the passage of the Miscellaneous Trade and Technical Corrections Act of 2004, updating the regulations to comport with current Customs and Border Protection (CBP) practices and changes made in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), and adding a website address for Statutory Import Programs Staff (SIPS). We also propose amending the regulations to reflect the new nomenclature changes made necessary by the transfer of the legacy Customs Service of the Department of the Treasury to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the subsequent enfolding of the U.S. Customs Service into the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection.
