Administration (EDA) has received
petitions for certification of eligibility to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance

decrease in sales or production of each
petitioning firm.

Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 43—Battle
Creek, Michigan Notification of
Proposed Production Activity, Mead
Johnson & Company, LLC, dba Mead
Johnson Nutritional, Subzone 43B,
(Infant Formula/Nutritional Products),
Zeeland, Michigan
Mead Johnson & Company, LLC, dba
Mead Johnson Nutritional (Mead
Johnson) submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ
Board for its facilities in Zeeland,
Michigan, within Subzone 43B. The
notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on March 27, 2017.
Mead Johnson already has authority
to produce within Subzone 43B infant
formula/nutritional products subject to
a restriction requiring all foreign-origin
dairy products admitted to the subzone
to be re-exported (sugar is of domestic
origin). The current request would add
a foreign-status material (lactose) to the
scope of authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR
400.14(b), additional FTZ authority
would be limited to the specific foreignstatus material described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Mead Johnson from
customs duty payments on the foreignstatus lactose used in export production.
On its domestic sales, Mead Johnson
would be able to choose the duty rates
during customs entry procedures that
apply to infant formula/nutritional
products (duty rates range between
6.4% ¥ $1.035/kg + 14.9%) authorized
by the FTZ Board for the foreign-status
lactose (6.4%). 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 May
16, 2017.
