Under T/IM procedures, the company has requested authority to manufacture cosmetic kits (HTS 3303.00, 3304.10, 3304.20, 3304.91, and 3305.10; these products enter the United States duty free).

ACTION: Notices; correction. AGENCY: SUMMARY: From September 7, 2005, through November 10, 2005, the Department of Commerce issued notices of antidumping and countervailing duty decisions in which the title of the official signing the notice was incorrect. This document corrects the title of the officials that signed notices during that period.

Background The Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Policy and Negotiation (DAS/IA) began serving as the Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration on January 9, 2005, when the position became vacant. The DAS/IA assumed this position under the Vacancies Reform Act (VRA) because he is the first principal to the Assistant Secretary. The VRA, however, only permits an individual to serve in an ‘‘Acting’’ capacity for a certain number of days after a vacancy has occurred. In this case, the DAS/IA was permitted to serve in an ‘‘Acting’’ capacity until September 7, 2005. After that time, he/she must revert to his/her original title, but may perform the nonexclusive duties of the vacant office. Through an oversight, the DAS/IA did not cease using the title ‘‘Acting’’ after September 7, 2005. From September 7, 2005 through November 10, 2005, the DAS/IA continued to sign various antidumping and countervailing duty decisions as ‘‘Acting Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.’’ The DAS/ IA also, on occasion, delegated those duties to other individuals within the Import Administration, who then signed E:\FR\FM\27JNN1.SGM 27JNN1

LLC(Magnesium and Aluminum Diecasting), Harbor Springs and Newberry, 
Michigan

    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of 
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade 
Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:

[[Page 36517]]

    Whereas, the Foreign-Trade Zones Act provides for ``. . . the 
establishment . . . of foreign-trade zones in ports of entry of the 
United States, to expedite and encourage foreign commerce, and for 
other purposes,'' and authorizes the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the 
Board) to grant to qualified corporations the privilege of establishing 
foreign-trade zones in or adjacent to U.S. Customs ports of entry;
    Whereas, the Board's regulations (15 CFR Part 400) provide for the 
establishment of special-purpose subzones when existing zone facilities 
cannot serve the specific use involved, and when the activity results 
in a significant public benefit and is in the public interest;
    Whereas, the City of Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 16, has made application for authority to establish 
special-purpose subzone status at the magnesium and aluminum diecasting 
facilities of Northern Imports, LLC, located in Harbor Springs and 
Newberry, Michigan (Docket 3-2005, filed 1-7-2005);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (70 FR 2997, 1-19-2005); and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
Board's regulations would be satisfied, and that approval of the 
application would be in the public interest if approval were subject to 
restriction;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for activity 
related to magnesium and aluminum diecasting at the manufacturing 
facilities of Northern Imports, LLC, located in Harbor Springs and 
Newberry, Michigan (Subzone 16A), as described in the application and 
Federal Register notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's

not subject to U.S. antidumping or countervailing duty orders must be 
admitted to the subzone under privileged foreign status (19 CFR 
Sec. 146.41) when used to manufacture finished products for the U.S. 
market.
