The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on November 3, 2014.

                    The MHWI facility is located within Site 7 of FTZ 82. The facility is used for the production and repair of offshore drilling riser systems (risers, telescopic joints, test equipment and tools). 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                           ( print page 69832)                        described below) and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board.                

Production under FTZ procedures could exempt MHWI from customs duty payments on the foreign status components used in export production. On its domestic sales, MHWI would be able to choose the duty rate during customs entry procedures that applies to offshore drilling risers, telescopic joints, test equipment and tools (free) for the foreign status inputs noted below. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign status production equipment.
