Analysis
HTS 2517.30.00 covers pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind commonly used for concrete aggregates, for road metalling, or for railway or other ballast; shingle and… under heading 2517 (pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind commonly used for concrete…).
The normal trade relations rate here is zero, shared by about 91% of the 78 tariff lines in chapter 25, a useful check when a neighbouring dutiable line is a candidate. Free here means free of the base duty only: origin-specific Chapter 99 duties such as Section 301 can still be owed.
Goods from countries without normal trade relations pay the column 2 rate of 30% instead of nothing, so origin decides between free entry and a 30% duty.
The other lines in the same group are 2517.10.00 (pebbles, gravel, broken or crushed stone, of a kind…, duty-free), 2517.20.00 (macadam of slag, dross or similar industrial waste, whether…, duty-free), 2517.41.00 (granules, chippings and powder, of stones of heading 2515…, duty-free) and 2517.49.00 (granules, chippings and powder, of stones of heading 2515…, duty-free).
