1. New FCC Import Condition 5A for Certain Cellular Phones Expected to Become Available in July 2005

CBP states that this change did not go into production as anticipated, but it is expected that this update will become effective during July 2005. A future message will be sent when this change is moved into production. (See ITT's Online Archives or 03/15/05 news, 05031515, for BP summary of Amendment 1 - March 2005 to the CATAIR) (Adm: 05-0683, dated 06/22/05, available at http://www.brokerpower.com/cgi-bin/adminsearch/admmsg.view.pl?article=2005/2005-0683.ADM)

2. Miscellaneous CBP Messages on AD and CV Duty Actions

CBP has issued messages on a number of antidumping (AD) and countervailing (CV) duty actions, many of which (marked by an * in the action column) were previously published in the Federal Register by the International Trade Administration (ITA) and summarized in International Trade Today.

(The CBP messages marked with an * cover much of the same information as the ITA notices; however, CBP's messages often list the 10-character case number specific to each listed company(s). ITA notices only list the 7-character master case number. In addition, sometimes the master case number for CBP purposes (in parentheses, below, where applicable) differs from the ITA master case number.)
