You state that Great Lakes was owned and operated by Canadian prior to the merger in 1988. Under these circumstances, the issuance of a new ruling is not required. Therefore, NY 827571 (February 16, 1988) is applicable to and binding on Canadian, provided the merchandise to be imported is identical to the goods which were the subject of NY 827571. Please attach a copy of this letter to the ruling issued to Great Lakes, so that all U.S. Customs ports and points of entry may be duly notified. Sincerely, John Durant, Director Commercial Operations Division
