DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Foreign–Trade Zones Board 

(Docket T–2–2007) 

Foreign–Trade Zone 26 – Atlanta, 

Georgia, Application for Temporary/ 

Interim Manufacturing Authority, 

Perkins Shibaura Engines LLC, (Diesel 

Engines), Griffin, GA 

An application has been submitted to 

the Executive Secretary of the Foreign–

Trade Zones Board (the Board) by 

Georgia Foreign–Trade Zone, Inc., 

grantee of FTZ 26, requesting 

temporary/interim manufacturing (T/ 

IM) authority within FTZ 26 at the 

Perkins Shibaura Engines LLC (Perkins) 

facility in Griffin, Georgia. 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 

to assemble up to 30,000 engines 

annually using certain foreign and 

domestic material inputs for a two-year 

period (expires 2–21–2008). 

Based on the FTZ Board’s 

modification of the T/IM procedure in 

September 2006, the applicant is now 

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, 

4010.32); flanges (7307.91); spring/lock 

washers (7318.21); cotter pins (7318.24); 

dowel pins and keys, pin springs 

(7318.29); cooling fans (8414.59); 

holders (8414.90); air filters (8421.31); 

gears, gearboxes, speed changers, torque 

converters, ball/roller screws (8483.40); 

generators (8511.50); ignition parts 

(8511.90); electrical switches (8536.50) 

and connectors (8544.42); and, process 

control instruments (9032.89) (duty 

rates: free – 5.8%). Perkins has also 

submitted a request for permanent FTZ 

manufacturing authority (which will be 

docketed with the Board separately), 


rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES
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. 

Public comment is invited from 

interested parties. Submissions (original 

and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the 

Board’s Executive Secretary at the 

following address: Office of the 

Executive Secretary, Room 2814B, U.S. 

Department of Commerce, 1401 

Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, 

DC 20230–0002. The closing period for 

receipt of comments is May 30, 2007. 

A copy of the application will be 

available for public inspection at the 

Office of the Foreign–Trade Zones 

Board’s Executive Secretary at the 

address listed above. For further

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

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 

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 

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, 

Suite 2710, 2 Canal Street, New Orleans, 

LA 70130; and, the Office of the 

Executive Secretary, Foreign–Trade 

Zones Board, Room 2814B, U.S. 

Department of Commerce, 1401 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC 20230–0002.

BILLING CODE 3510–DS–S 

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

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.
