Sec. 151.41  Information on entry summary.


    On the entry summary for petroleum or petroleum products in bulk, 
the importer shall show the API gravity at 60 deg. Fahrenheit, in 
accordance with the current edition of the ASTM-IP Petroleum Measurement 
Tables (American Edition), approved by the American Society for Testing 
and Materials. The appropriate unabridged table shall be used in the 
reduction of volume to 60 deg. F. If the exact volumetric quantity 
cannot be determined in advance, the entry summary may be made for ``---
- barrels, more or less'', but in no case may the estimate vary by more 
than three percent from the gross quantity unladen. The term ``barrels'' 
is defined in Chapter 27, Additional U.S. Note 7, Harmonized Tariff 
Schedule of the United States. The information required by this section 
also shall be shown on the entry summary permit if the entry summary is 
filed at the time of entry, and on each entry summary continuation sheet 
regardless of when the entry summary is filed.
