Each section has four slots located in the middle that are used to facilitate the welding process to the barge’s floor frames after the sections are welded to each other.

The applicable subheading for the barge floor components will be 7308.90.9590, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for structures and parts of structuresof iron or steel: Other: Other. The rate of duty will be 2.8 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist David Curran at 212-637-7049.

Sincerely,
