SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Census Bureau is requesting 

generic clearance to conduct customer 

satisfaction research which may be in 

the form of mailed or electronic 

questionnaires and/or focus groups, 

telephone interviews, or web-based 

interviews. 

The Census Bureau has ranked a 

customer-focused environment as one of 

its most important strategic planning 

objectives. The Census Bureau routinely 

needs to collect and analyze customer 

feedback about its products and services 

to better align them to its customers’ 

needs and preferences. Several 

programs, products, and distribution 

channels have been designed and/or 

redesigned based on feedback from its 

various customer satisfaction research 

efforts. 

Each research design is reviewed for 

content, utility, and user-friendliness by 

a variety of appropriate staff (including 

research design and subject-matter 

experts). The concept and design are 

tested by internal staff and a select 

sample of respondents to confirm its 

appropriateness, user-friendliness, and 

to estimate burden (including hours and 

cost) of the proposed collection of 

information. Collection techniques are 

discussed and included in the research, 

concept, and design discussion to define 

the most time-, cost-efficient and 

accurate collection media. 

The clearance operates in the 

following manner: A block of burden 

hours is reserved at the beginning of the 

clearance period. The particular 

activities that will be conducted under 

the clearance are not specified in 

advance because they would not be 

known at the beginning of the clearance 

period. The Census Bureau provides 

detailed information to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) about 

the specific activities a minimum of two 

weeks prior to the planned start date of 

the collection. OMB provides any 

comments it may have prior to the start 

date of the planned activity. At the end 

of each year, a report is submitted to 

OMB that summarizes the number of 

hours used as well as the nature and 

results of the activities completed under 

the clearance. 

II. Method of Collection

mailed or electronic questionnaires and/ 

or focus groups, telephone or web-based 

interviews.

Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 207— 

Richmond, Virginia; Notification of 

Proposed Production Activity; Kaiser 

Aluminum Fabricated Products, LLC 

(Aluminum Extrusions); Richmond, 

Virginia 

Kaiser Aluminum Fabricated 

Products, LLC (Kaiser) submitted a 

notification of proposed production 

activity to the FTZ Board for its facility 

in Richmond, Virginia. The notification 

conforming to the requirements of the 

regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 

400.22) was received on August 29, 

2018. 

The applicant indicates that it will be 

submitting a separate application for 

FTZ designation at the Kaiser facility 

under FTZ 207. The facility is used for 

the production of aluminum extrusions 

for the automotive industry. Pursuant to 

15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be 

limited to the specific foreign-status 

materials and components and specific 

finished products described in the 

submitted notification (as described 

below) and subsequently authorized by 

the FTZ Board. 

Production under FTZ procedures 

could exempt Kaiser from customs duty 

payments on the foreign-status 

components used in export production. 

On its domestic sales, for the foreignstatus materials/components noted 

below, Kaiser would be able to choose 

the duty rates during customs entry 

procedures that apply to: Hollow profile 

tubes of aluminum alloys; bars and rods 

of aluminum alloys; rounded bars and 

rods of aluminum alloys; non-rounded 

bars and rods of aluminum alloys; and, 

tube pipe of aluminum alloys (duty rate 

ranges from 1.5% to 5.7%). Kaiser 

would be able to avoid duty on foreignstatus components which become scrap/ 

waste. Customs duties also could 

possibly be deferred or reduced on 

foreign-status production equipment. 

The components and materials 

sourced from abroad include alloyed 

aluminum logs and billets (duty-free). 

The request indicates that the materials/ 

components are subject to special duties 

under Section 232 of the Trade 

Expansion Act of 1962 (Section 232), 

depending on the country of origin. The 

applicable Section 232 decision requires 

subject merchandise to be admitted to 

FTZs in privileged foreign status (19 

CFR 146.41). 

Public comment is invited from 

interested parties. Submissions shall be 

addressed to the Board’s Executive 

Secretary at the address below. The 

closing period for their receipt is 

October 17, 2018. 

A copy of the notification will be 

available for public inspection at the 

Office of the Executive Secretary, 

Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room 

21013, U.S. Department of Commerce, 

1401 Constitution Avenue NW, 

Washington, DC 20230–0002, and in the
