15/82) and expanded on February 18,

1999 (Board Order 1024, 64 FR 9472, 2/

26/99). The zone currently consists of

five sites in the Nashville, Tennessee

area:

Site 1—(52,000 square feet) within a

200,000 square foot warehouse located

at 750 Cowan Street, Nashville;

Site 2—(63 acres) within the 2,000-

acre Cockrill Bend industrial park,

Nashville;

Site 3—(275,000 square feet) within a

400,000 square foot warehouse located

at 323 Mason Road, La Vergne,

Tennessee;

Site 4—(39 acres) Space Park North

Industrial Park, 1000 Cartwright Street,

Goodlettsville, Tennessee; and

Site 5—(19 acres) Old Stone Bridge

Industrial Park, Old Stone Bridge,

Goodlettsville.

The applicant is now requesting

authority to expand the FTZ to include

two additional sites:

Site 6—‘‘Airport Site,’’ to include 806

acres located in Nashville at Nashville

International Airport, One Terminal

Drive, Nashville. The Airport Site

involves an industrial-park type of

facility that will include manufacturing,

distribution, and logistics facilities for

Dell and warehousing and logistics

facilities for other parties requiring FTZ

procedures at the airport, particularly

involving air freight; and

Site 7—‘‘Eastgate Site,’’ at 3850

Eastgate Boulevard, Lebanon,

Tennessee. This site is in the Eastgate

Business Park, off Interstate 40, twelve

miles east of Nashville International

Airport. The site contains 38 acres with

one 300,000 square foot building

currently occupied by Dell—the

remainder of the site will be available

for other users.

The application also requests

authority on behalf of Dell to

manufacture personal computers,

including servers and workstations,

within FTZ 78 (within the proposed

expansion sites). Dell is already

authorized to manufacture such

computers under zone procedures

within Foreign Trade Zone 183 and

Subzone 183A. This proposal requests

the same scope of manufacturing

authority under FTZ procedures in

terms of products or components as

requested in Dell’s previous

applications, and involves an increase

in the overall level of production under

FTZ procedures for Dell.

The specific finished products for

which Dell seeks authority to produce

under FTZ procedures are various types

of computers (desktop and notebook

computers, workstations, and network

servers) and data storage products. All

of these products fall into HTSUS

classifications which are duty free. The

imported components for which Dell is

seeking inverted tariff benefits include:

plastic and rubber components; cloth

tape; metal screws, clamps, washers,

clips, and springs; locks and keys; fans;

adapters and battery chargers; magnets;

batteries; microphones; speakers; surge

protectors; switches; sockets and plugs;

cables, connectors, and power cords;

‘‘populated’’ printed circuit boards; and

leather carrying cases. Duty rates on

these items range up to 6.2% ad

valorem.

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 on the application is

invited from interested parties.

Submissions (original and three copies)

shall be addressed to the Board’s

Executive Secretary at the address

below. The closing period for their

receipt is August 11, 2000. Rebuttal

comments in response to material

submitted during the foregoing period
