acres) is located at 38505 Cherry Street, 

Newark; and Site 4 (7 acres) is located 

at 1 Portola Avenue, Livermore. The 

facilities are used for the manufacture, 

assembly, repair, kitting, de-kitting and 

distribution of wafer fabrication 

equipment (in particular, single-wafer 

clean equipment and plasma etch 

equipment). Components and materials 

sourced from abroad (representing 9% 

of the value of the finished product) 

include: monofilament, tubes, belts, 

fittings, gaskets, washers, seals, valves, 

taps, bearings, stainless steel screws, 

pulleys, shaft couplings, gears, 

machinery parts, motors, quartz fittings 

and parts, electrical transformers, 

electromagnetic couplings, batteries, 

induction equipment, electrothermic 

appliances, speakers, amplifiers, 

magnetic and optical media, monitors, 

electrical circuitry and components, 

lamps, wiring, cable, electrical 

insulators, optical fibers and devices, 

lenses, lasers, liquid crystal devices, self 

adhesive and non-adhesive sheets, 

tempered glass, laboratory glassware, 

fittings and components of metal 

(precious, ferrous, and non-ferrous), 

precious stone articles, base metal tools, 

pumps, fans, sprayers, 

electromechanical drills, calculating 

instruments, measuring devices, time 

devices, packaging materials, brochures, 

and printed matter (duty rate ranges 

from duty-free to 9%). 

FTZ procedures could exempt Lam 

from customs duty payments on the 

foreign components used in export 

production. The company anticipates 

that 96.5 percent of the plant’s 

shipments will be exported. On its 

domestic sales, Lam would be able to 

choose the duty rates during customs 

entry procedures that apply to wafer 

cleaning stand-alone systems and wafer 

etch process modules and systems, 

(duty-free) for the foreign inputs noted 

above. FTZ designation would further 

allow Lam to realize logistical benefits 

through the use of weekly customs entry 

procedures. Customs duties also could 

possibly be deferred or reduced on 

foreign status production equipment. 

The request indicates that the savings 

from FTZ procedures would help 

improve the plant’s international 

competitiveness. 

In accordance with the Board’s 

regulations, Maureen Hinman of the 

FTZ Staff is designated examiner to 

evaluate and analyze the facts and 

information presented in the application 

and case record and to report findings 

and recommendations to the Board.

Foreign-Trade Zones Board 

[Docket 38–2010] 

Foreign-Trade Zone 29—Louisville, KY; 

Application for Expansion and 

Expansion of Manufacturing Authority; 

Subzone 29F; Hitachi Automotive 

Products (USA), Inc. (Automotive 

Components) 

An application has been submitted to 

the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the 

Board) by the Louisville and Jefferson 

County Riverport Authority, grantee of 

FTZ 29, on behalf of Hitachi 

Automotive Products (USA), Inc. (HAP), 

operator of Subzone 29F, HAP plant, 

Harrodsburg, Kentucky, requesting 

authority to expand the subzone and to 

expand the scope of FTZ manufacturing 

authority to include new manufacturing 

capacity. The application was submitted 

pursuant to the provisions of the 

Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended 

(19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and section 

400.28(a)(2) of the Board’s regulations 

(15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed 

on May 20, 2010. 

Subzone 29F was approved by the 

Board in 1990 with authority granted for 

the manufacture of automotive 

components at HAP’s manufacturing 

plant located at 955 Warwick Road (Site 

1) (50 acres) in Harrodsburg, Kentucky 

(Board Order 497, 56 FR 674, 1–8–91). 

Activity at the facility (624 employees) 

includes machining, assembly, testing, 

warehousing, and distribution of 

various automotive components, 

including mass air sensors, throttle 

bodies and chambers, starter motors, 

motor/generator units, alternators, 

distributors, other static converters, 

inverter modules, rotors/stators, ignition 

coils, electronic sensors and modules, 

fuel injectors, emissions control 

equipment, valves, pumps, and 

electronic control units for engines and 

transmissions (capacity—up to 8.5 

million units annually). Components 

and materials sourced from abroad 

(representing 80 percent of the finished 

automotive components’ material value) 

include: adhesives, plastic fittings, 

plastic and rubber belts, fasteners, 

gaskets/seals/o-rings, metal fittings, 

labels, plastic wedging, springs, 

brackets, plates, filters, bearings, air 

pumps/compressors, valves, switches, 

electric motors, tubes/pipes/profiles, 

aluminum plugs, transformers, 

crankshafts, camshafts, gears, pulleys, 

couplings, clutches, parts of electric 

motors, pinions, magnets, ignition parts, 

diodes, transistors, resistors, 

semiconductors, liquid crystal devices, 

electrical instruments, navigation 

apparatuses, capacitors, printed/ 

integrated circuits, fuses, rheostats, 

connectors, terminals, piezoelectric 

crystals, regulators, lamps, wires, cables, 

cylinders, plungers, insulators, brushes, 

brackets, shafts, and measuring 

instruments (duty rate range: Free— 

9.0%). 

The applicant is now requesting 

authority to expand the subzone to 

include two new warehouse facilities: 

Site 2—(68,000 sq. ft.) 601 Robinson 

Road in Harrodsburg, Kentucky; and 

Site 3—(61,010 sq. ft.) 110 Morgan 

Soaper Road, Harrodsburg. The 

company will be expanding its 

manufacturing plant (Site 1) to increase 

production area that would add up to 

720,000 additional units to the facility’s 

capacity. The applicant also requests 

that the scope of FTZ manufacturing 

authority be expanded to include the 

additional production capacity for the 

manufacture of high pressure, directinjection fuel pumps (new combined 

output would be 9.22 million units per 

year). The expanded operations will 

involve a continuation of HAP’s 

utilization of both foreign-sourced and 

domestic materials and components. 

Expanded FTZ procedures could 

continue to exempt HAP from customs 

duty payments on the foreign-origin 

components used in production for 

export (about 30% of shipments). On its 

domestic shipments, the company 

would be able to elect the duty rate that 

applies to finished automotive 

components (free—6.7%) for the 

foreign-origin inputs noted above. 

Subzone status would further allow 


wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with NOTICES
29724 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 102 / Thursday, May 27, 2010 / Notices 

HAP to realize logistical benefits 

through the use of weekly customs entry 

procedures. Customs duties also could 

possibly be deferred or reduced on 

foreign status production equipment. 

HAP would also be exempt from duty 

payments on foreign inputs that become 

scrap during the production process. 

In accordance with the Board’s 

regulations, Pierre Duy of the FTZ Staff 

is designated examiner to evaluate and 

analyze the facts and information 

presented in the application and case 

record and to report findings and 

recommendations 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 

following address: Office of the 

Executive Secretary, Room 2111, U.S. 

Department of Commerce, 1401 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC 20230–0002. The closing period for 

receipt of comments is July 26, 2010. 

Rebuttal comments in response to
