Implementation of Accelerated Schedule of Duty Elimination for 
Certain Goods Imported From Canada

AGENCY: Office of the United States Trade Representative.

ACTION: Notice of effective date of previously proclaimed accelerated 
duty elimination under the United States-Canada Free-Trade Agreement.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Presidential Proclamation 6579 of July 4, 1993 (58 FR 36839), 
implemented an accelerated schedule of duty elimination for certain 
goods originating in the territory of Canada pursuant to the United 
States-Canada Free-Trade Agreement. Section B of the Annex to that 
Proclamation directed the U.S. Trade Representative to specify the 
effective date for the duty elimination on enumerated goods, to 
coincide with the date of implementation of the North American Free 
Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and to publish a notice in the Federal 
Register. The NAFTA entered into force between the United States and 
Canada on January 1, 1994. Accordingly, notice is hereby given that the 
provisions of section B of the Annex to Proclamation 6579 are effective 
with respect to goods of Canada, under the terms of general note 12 to 
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that are entered, 
or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption, on or after January 1, 
1994.
