SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Economic Development 

Administration (EDA) leads the Federal 

economic development agenda by 

promoting innovation and 

competitiveness, preparing American 

regions for growth and success in the 

worldwide economy. Guided by the 

basic principle that sustainable 

economic development should be 

locally-driven, EDA works directly with 

communities and regions to help them 

build the capacity for economic 

development based on local business 

conditions and needs. The Public Works 

and Economic Development Act of 1965 

(PWEDA) (42 U.S.C. 3121 et seq.) is 

EDA’s organic authority and is the 

primary legal authority under which 

EDA awards financial assistance. Under 

PWEDA, EDA provides financial 

assistance to both rural and urban 

distressed communities by fostering 

entrepreneurship, innovation, and 

productivity through investments in 

infrastructure development, capacity 

building, and business development to 

attract private capital investments and 

new and better jobs to regions 

experiencing economic distress. Further 

information on EDA programs and 

financial assistance opportunities can be 

found at www.eda.gov. 

To effectively administer and monitor 

its economic development assistance 

programs, EDA collects certain 

information from applications for, and 

recipients of, EDA investment 

assistance. EDA may award assistance 

for construction projects through its 

Public Works and Economic Adjustment 

Assistance (EAA) programs. Public 

Works program investments help 

support the construction or 

rehabilitation of essential public 

infrastructure and facilities necessary to 

generate or retain private sector jobs and 

investments, attract private sector 

capital, and promote vibrant economic 

ecosystems, regional competitiveness, 

and innovation. The EAA program 

provides a wide range of technical, 

planning, and infrastructure assistance 

in regions experiencing adverse 

economic changes that may occur 

suddenly or over time. 

EDA seeks comments from the public 

and other Federal agencies on a 

proposed revision and extension of the 

series of checklists and templates that 

constitute EDA’s post-approval tool for 

construction projects. These checklists 

and templates, as well as any special 

conditions incorporated into the terms 

and conditions at the time of award, 

supplement the requirements that apply 

to EDA-funded construction projects. 

II. Method of Collection 

The checklists and templates are 

collected via both paper and electronic 

submissions. These checklists and 

templates, as well as any special 

conditions incorporated into the terms 

and conditions at the time of award, 

supplement the requirements that apply 

to EDA-funded construction projects. 

As a part of this renewal process, EDA 

plans to make clarifying edits to the 

series of checklists and templates, 

thereby facilitating timely completion 

by the award recipient and approval by 

EDA. None of the edits are expected to 

increase the time burden on the 

respondent nor do the modifications 

change the type of collected 

information.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Foreign-Trade Zones Board 

[B–60–2021] 

Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 171—Liberty 

County, Texas; Notification of 

Proposed Production Activity; CCZJV– 

GPX (Pipe Spools and Valves), 

Baytown, Texas 

CCZJV–GPX submitted a notification 

of proposed production activity to the 

FTZ Board for its facility in Baytown, 

Texas. The notification conforming to 

the requirements of the regulations of 

the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was 

received on August 24, 2021. 

The CCZJV–GPX facility is located 

within FTZ 171. The facility will be 

used for production of pipe spools and 

valves. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), 

FTZ activity would be limited to the 

specific foreign-status materials/ 

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 CCZJV–GPX from 

customs duty payments on the foreignstatus materials/components used in 

export production. On its domestic 

sales, for the foreign-status materials/ 

components noted below, CCZJV–GPX 

would be able to choose the duty rates 

during customs entry procedures that 

apply to seamless or welded stainless 

steel pipe spools, and ductile iron, 

carbon, and stainless steel piping balls, 

gate valves, and check valves (duty rate 

ranges from duty-free to 5.6%). CCZJV– 

GPX would be able to avoid duty on 

foreign-status components which 

become scrap/waste. Customs duties 

also could possibly be deferred or 

reduced on foreign-status production 

equipment. 

The materials/components sourced 

from abroad may include: Steel pipe 

(seamless iron or nonalloy; welded 

carbon; stainless); flanges (stainless 

steel; stainless steel not processed after 

forging; carbon steel); butt-welded 

carbon steel fittings; carbon steel pipe 

fittings; butt-welded pipe fittings (iron 

or nonalloy steel; alloy steel (except 

stainless steel)); forged pipe fittings 

(iron or nonalloy steel); and, actuators 

(motorized, pneumatic, hydraulic) (duty 

rate ranges from duty-free to 6.2%). The 

request indicates that certain 

components are subject to various 

antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/ 

CVD) orders if imported from certain 

countries. The FTZ Board’s regulations 

(15 CFR 400.14(e)) require that 

merchandise subject to AD/CVD orders, 

or items which would be otherwise 

subject to suspension of liquidation 

under AD/CVD procedures if they 

entered U.S. customs territory, be 

admitted to the zone in privileged 

foreign (PF) status (19 CFR 146.41). The 

request also indicates that certain 

materials/components are subject to 

duties under Section 232 of the Trade 

Expansion Act of 1962 (Section 232) or 

Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 

(Section 301), depending on the country 

of origin. The applicable Section 232 

and Section 301 decisions require 

subject merchandise to be admitted to 

FTZs in PF status. 

Public comment is invited from 

interested parties. Submissions shall be 

addressed to the Board’s Executive 

Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The 

closing period for their receipt is 

October 13, 2021. 

A copy of the notification will be 

available for public inspection in the 

‘‘Reading Room’’ section of the Board’s 

website, which is accessible via 

www.trade.gov/ftz.
