An application has been submitted to
the Executive Secretary of the Foreign–

Georgia Foreign–Trade Zone, Inc.,
grantee of FTZ 26, requesting
temporary/interim manufacturing (T/
IM) authority within FTZ 26 at the

application was filed on April 24, 2007.
The Perkins facility (150 employees)
is located at 325 Green Valley Road
within the the Green Valley Industrial
Park in Griffin (Site 6). In 2006, T/IM
authority was approved for Perkins to
manufacture compact diesel engines
under FTZ procedures for the U.S.
market and export (71 FR 16756, 4–4–
2006). The approval included authority

requesting additional authority under T/
IM procedures for the remainder of its
two-year period to assemble up to
50,000 diesel engines (HTSUS 8408.90;
10 - 60 horsepower), with an expanded
list of foreign–origin components. The
additional foreign components that
would be used in the FTZ assembly
activity include: rubber tubes/pipes/
hoses, reinforced or non–reinforced
(HTSUS 4009.11, 4009.31, 4009.32,
4009.41); transmission belts (4010.31,

and connectors (8544.42); and, process

rates: free – 5.8%). Perkins has also
submitted a request for permanent FTZ
manufacturing authority (which will be
docketed with the Board separately),

 21218 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 82 / Monday, April 30, 2007 / Notices
which separately includes 62 additional
component inputs.
FTZ procedures would exempt
Perkins from Customs duty payments on
the foreign components used in
production for export to non–NAFTA
countries. On shipments to the U.S. and
to NAFTA markets, Perkins could elect
the finished engine duty rate (free) for
the foreign components used in
production when the finished engines
are entered for U.S. consumption from
the zone. The application indicates that
the company would also realize duty
deferral and certain logistical/supply
chain savings.

Foreign–Trade Zones Board
Docket 17–2007
Foreign–Trade Zone 124 – Gramercy,
LA, Application for Subzone Status,
Candies Shipbuilders, L.L.C.,
(Shipbuilding)
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign–Trade Zones Board (the
Board) by the Port of South Louisiana
Commission, grantee of FTZ 124,
requesting special–purpose subzone
status for the shipbuilding facility of
Candies Shipbuilders, L.L.C. (Candies),
in Houma, Louisiana. The application
was submitted pursuant to the
provisions of the Foreign–Trade Zones
Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u),
and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR
rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
Part 400). It was formally filed on April
20, 2007.
The Candies shipyard (45 acres) is
located at 1100 Oak Street in Houma
(Terrebonne Parish), Louisiana, about 45
VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:27 Apr 27, 2007 Jkt 211001
miles southwest of New Orleans. The
facility (139 employees) is used for the
construction, fabrication, and repair of
oceangoing vessels for domestic and
international customers. Foreign
components that may be used at the
Candies shipyard (representing about
15% of finished vessel value) may
include bulb flats, windows, doors and
watertight doors, engines, winches,
anchors, sanitary units, manholes,
dynamic positioning systems,
electronics, wiring sets and cable (duty
rate range: free – 5.0%, ad valorem).
FTZ procedures would exempt
Candies from Customs duty payments
on the foreign components used in
export activity. On its domestic sales,
the company would not be required to
pay applicable Customs duties on the
foreign components, or it would be able
to elect the duty rate that applies to
finished oceangoing vessels (duty free)
for the foreign components when the
vessels are processed for Customs entry.
The manufacturing activity conducted
under FTZ procedures would be subject
to the ‘‘standard shipyard restriction’’
applicable to foreign–origin steel mill
products (e.g., angles, pipe, plate),
which requires that full Customs duties
be paid on such items. The application
indicates that the savings from FTZ
procedures would help improve the
facility’s international competitiveness.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff
has been designated examiner to
investigate the application and report to
the Board.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions (original
and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the
Board’s Executive Secretary at the
address below. The closing period for
their receipt is June 29, 2007. Rebuttal
comments in response to material
submitted during the foregoing period
may be submitted during the subsequent
15-day period to July 16, 2007.
A copy of the application and
accompanying exhibits will be available
for public inspection at each of the
following locations: U.S. Department of
Commerce Export Assistance Center,

LA 70130; and, the Office of the

Foreign–Trade Zones Board
(Docket 18–2007)
Foreign–Trade Zone 110 –
Albuquerque, New Mexico, Application
for Subzone, Louisiana Energy
Services, L.P., (Gas Centrifuge
Production Equipment), Lea County,
New Mexico
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign–Trade Zones Board (the
Board) by the City of Albuquerque,
grantee of FTZ 110, requesting special–
purpose subzone status for the assembly
and installation of gas centrifuge
production equipment at the facility of
Louisiana Energy Services, L.P. (LES),
located in Lea County, New Mexico.
The application was submitted pursuant
to the provisions of the Foreign–Trade
Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–
81u), and the regulations of the Board
(15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed
on April 20, 2007.
The LES facility (1,000 employees,
543 acres) is located at 275 Andrews
Highway, in Lea County, New Mexico.
The applicant is requesting authority for
the assembly and installation of gas
centrifuge production equipment for the
enrichment of uranium during
construction of the National Enrichment
Facility. Components and materials
sourced from abroad, representing some
99% of all parts, include: cascade valve
frames, pipe work modules, connecting
pipes and gas centrifuge parts, all
designed as parts of machinery and
apparatuses for isometric separation
(duty rate 2.6%).
FTZ procedures would allow LES to
defer duty on the parts of production
equipment until they are incorporated
into a finished gas centrifuge, tested and
put into use. FTZ designation would
further allow LES to utilize certain U.S.
Customs and Border Protection
procedures, such as weekly entry and
direct delivery, resulting in increased
efficiencies for its import shipments.
The applicant is not requesting FTZ
manufacturing authority for the
enrichment of uranium, and enrichment
activity would not occur in an activated
FTZ area. The request indicates that the
savings from FTZ procedures would
help improve the facility’s international
competitiveness.
