Overview
This classification covers rough, sawn or chipped lumber of Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta), with a thickness exceeding 6 mm. This includes timber that has undergone initial processing such as sawing, chipping, slicing, or peeling, but has not yet been further worked by planing, sanding, or end-joining. The key characteristic of goods falling under this subheading is their unfinished state, prior to any significant finishing or preparation for specific end-uses.
It is important to distinguish this category from its sibling, 4407.11.00.45, which covers "Other" coniferous wood under the same broad classification. While both fall under coniferous woods of pine, this specific subheading is exclusively for Lodgepole pine. Therefore, identification of the species is crucial for accurate classification.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification into this subheading is definitive for rough Lodgepole pine lumber exceeding 6 mm in thickness that does not fit into any other more specific classification. Examples of goods that would fall here include rough-sawn logs, boards, or planks of Lodgepole pine intended for further processing or as raw material.
