Census Adds New Schedule B Numbers for Bison Meat, Liquefied Propane

The Census Bureau recently released its mid-year update to Schedule B, with changes taking effect July 1. New Schedule B numbers are created to break out boneless meat of bison (0201.30.6010) from other boneless bovine meat (0201.30.6090), with old Schedule B number 0201.30.6000 for all fresh or chilled, unprocessed, boneless bovine meat now obsolete. New Schedule B number 2711.12.0010 is also being created for liquefied propane with a minimum purity of 90 liquid volume percent, with other liquefied propane now classifiable under Schedule B number 2711.12.0020. Schedule B number 2711.12.0000 for all liquefied propane is also obsolete. The changes mirror those in the International Trade Commission’s upcoming mid-year update to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, though most of the upcoming HTS changes are not mirrored in Schedule B.
