Import Tips

• Ensure the tow is not yet processed into geotextile fabric, as that would reclassify it under Chapter 59

• Document the tow's specifications, including length and decitex, to meet chapter note 1

• Be prepared to provide end-use documentation for civil engineering applications if requested
