Dear Ms. O'Boyle:

     In your letter dated April 9, 1991, on behalf of your

     The item is a chrome plated, 4" plastic lavatory faucet with
acrylic handles and plastic pop-up.  

     The applicable subheading for the lavatory faucet will be

     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
