Subpart C - Sugar for the Production of Polyhydric Alcohol |
§ 1530.309 - Enforcement.
-
(a) If at any time after receiving the proof of production of polyhydric alcohol described in § 1530.305 of this subpart, the Licensing Authority determines that the sugar entered under the license was not used for the sole purpose of producing (other than by distillation) polyhydric alcohols, except polyhydric alcohols for use as a substitute for sugar in human food consumption, and if the bond has been released under § 1530.303, the Licensing Authority may hold the licensee liable for the difference between the Number 11 contract price and the Number 14 contract price, per pound of raw sugar, in effect on the last market day before the date of entry of the sugar or the last market day before the end of the period during which production of polyhydric alcohol was required, whichever difference is greater, times the quantity of sugar that should have been, but was not, used in such production of such polyhydric alcohol. In the event no Number 11 contract price or Number 14 contract price is reported by
the New York Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchange, for the relevant market day, the Licensing Authority may estimate such price as he or she deems appropriate. (b) If at any time after receiving the licensee's certification that no refund, as drawback, of any duties paid on the importation of any sugars, syrups or molasses described in subheadings 1701.11.03, 1701.12.02, 1701.91.22, 1701.99.02, 1702.90.32, 1806.10.42, or 2106.90.12 of the HTS has been or will be claimed or received on the basis, or as a result, of the exportation of any polyhydric alcohol, the Licensing Authority determines that a refund of such customs duties has been claimed or received by the licensee or any other person, and if the bond has been released under § 1530.303, the Licensing Authority may hold the licensee liable for the difference between the Number 11 contract price and the Number 14 contract price, per pound of raw sugar, in effect on the last market day before the date of entry of the sugar or the last market day before the end of the period during which export was required, whichever difference is greater, times the quantity of sugar used in the production of such polyhydric alcohol. In the event no Number 11 contract price or Number 14 contract price is reported by the New York Coffee, Sugar and Cocoa Exchange for the relevant market day, the Licensing Authority may estimate such price as he or she deems appropriate.
(c) If at any time the Licensing Authority determines that a licensee has failed to comply with the requirements of this subpart, including the requirement of HTS subheading 1701.11.02 and of the relevant provisions of additional U.S. note 3, the Licensing Authority may, after notice to the licensee, suspend or revoke the license issued to the licensee under this program and may refuse to issue a license to that manufacturer.
