or alterations; (2) the value of the article and the repairs or 
alterations; and (3) a declaration by the owner, importer, consignee,

or alterations, and to assess duty only on the value of those repairs 
or alterations.
    These requirements apply to the trade community who are required by 
law to provide this declaration.
