1. CBP Issues 16 Ruling Actions, First Published in Bulletin Since Sept

These are the first ruling actions that have been published in a CBP Bulletin since September 3, 2009, due to CBP's conduct of an internal review of this process. (CBP Bulletin, dated 12/10/09, available at http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/trade/legal/bulletins_decisions/bulletins_2009/vol43_12102009_no50/)

2. Updated TRQ/TPL "Threshold to Fill" List

CBP has posted an updated version of its TRQ/TPL "threshold to fill" list, a quick reference to monitor TRQs and TPLs that are approaching the restraint limit or have filled the in-quota (low) rate. The list is divided into two sections - those that are at least 85% filled and those that are closed. (List, updated 12/07/09, available at http://www.cbp.gov/linkhandler/cgov/trade/trade_programs/textiles_and_quotas/commodity/trq_thresh_fill.ctt/trq_thresh_fill.pdf)
