Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 41--Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Notification 
of Proposed Production Activity, CNH Industrial America, LLC, Subzone 
41I (4-Wheel Drive Axle Subassemblies), Racine, Wisconsin

    CNH Industrial America, LLC (CNH) submitted a notification of 
proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its facilities within 
Subzone (SZ) 41I, in Racine, Wisconsin. The notification conforming to 
the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) 
was received on January 20, 2015.
    CNH already has authority to produce agricultural tractors and 
tractor components, cabs, transmissions, axles, valves and valve 
assemblies, gear boxes for combines, and final drives for combines 
within SZ 41I. The current request would add to the CNH facility's 
scope of authority the production of certain 4-wheel drive axle 
subassemblies: planetary carrier assemblies; non-driving planetary 
carrier assemblies; pinion assemblies with differentials; and, engine-
powered wheel drive axle assemblies. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), 
additional FTZ authority would be limited to the specific finished 
products described in the submitted notification (as described below) 
and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board.
    Production under FTZ procedures could exempt CNH from customs duty 
payments on the foreign-status materials/components in the existing 
scope of authority used in export production of the 4-wheel drive axle 
subassemblies. On its domestic sales, CNH would be able to choose the 
duty rates during customs entry procedures that apply to the 4-wheel 
drive axle subassemblies (duty rates: free or 2.5%) for the foreign-
status materials/components in the existing scope of authority. Customs 
duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign-status 
production equipment.
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions 
shall be addressed to the FTZ Board's Executive Secretary at the 
address below. The closing period for their receipt is March 16, 2015.
    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 ``Reading Room'' section of the 
FTZ Board's Web site, which is accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz.
