This meant that they were in charge of making sure that all goods coming into the United States were properly inspected and valued, so that the correct amount of customs duties could be collected. The examples illustrate how surveyors of the port were appointed to different ports of entry across the country, and how their job was to ensure that all imports were properly inspected and valued.
