RE:  The tariff classification of a plastic drop cloth from
China.

Dear Ms. O'Boyle:

     In your letter dated August 13, 1991, on behalf of Builders
Square Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.       

      
     The drop cloth is rectangular and it is composed of
polyethylene.  The edges have not been rounded or otherwise
finished.
     
     The applicable subheading for the drop cloth will be
3920.10.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other plates, sheets, film, foil and
strip, of plastics, noncellular and not reinforced, laminated,
supported or similarly combined with other materials, of polymers
of ethylene.  The rate of duty will be 4.2 percent ad valorem.   

     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.

                                             Sincerely,



                                             Jean F. Maguire
