The additional foreign components that would be used in the FTZ assembly activity include: rubber tubes/pipes/ hoses, reinforced or non–reinforced (HTSUS 4009.11, 4009.31, 4009.32, 4009.41); transmission belts (4010.31, 4010.32); flanges (7307.91); spring/lock washers (7318.21); cotter pins (7318.24); dowel pins and keys, pin springs (7318.29); cooling fans (8414.59); holders (8414.90); air filters (8421.31); gears, gearboxes, speed changers, torque converters, ball/roller screws (8483.40); generators (8511.50); ignition parts (8511.90); electrical switches (8536.50) and connectors (8544.42); and, process control instruments (9032.89) (duty rates: free – 5.8%).

On shipments to the U.S. and to NAFTA markets, Perkins could elect the finished engine duty rate (free) for the foreign components used in production when the finished engines are entered for U.S. consumption from the zone.

The facility (139 employees) is used for the construction, fabrication, and repair of oceangoing vessels for domestic and international customers. Foreign components that may be used at the Candies shipyard (representing about 15% of finished vessel value) may include bulb flats, windows, doors and watertight doors, engines, winches, anchors, sanitary units, manholes, dynamic positioning systems, electronics, wiring sets and cable (duty rate range: free – 5.0%, ad valorem). FTZ procedures would exempt Candies from Customs duty payments on the foreign components used in export activity. On its domestic sales, the company would not be required to pay applicable Customs duties on the foreign components, or it would be able to elect the duty rate that applies to finished oceangoing vessels (duty free) for the foreign components when the vessels are processed for Customs entry. The manufacturing activity conducted under FTZ procedures would be subject to the ‘‘standard shipyard restriction’’ applicable to foreign–origin steel mill products (e.g., angles, pipe, plate), which requires that full Customs duties be paid on such items. The application indicates that the savings from FTZ procedures would help improve the facility’s international competitiveness. In accordance with the Board’s regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board.

Components and materials sourced from abroad, representing some 99% of all parts, include: cascade valve frames, pipe work modules, connecting pipes and gas centrifuge parts, all designed as parts of machinery and apparatuses for isometric separation (duty rate 2.6%). FTZ procedures would allow LES to defer duty on the parts of production equipment until they are incorporated into a finished gas centrifuge, tested and put into use. FTZ designation would further allow LES to utilize certain U.S. Customs and Border Protection procedures, such as weekly entry and direct delivery, resulting in increased efficiencies for its import shipments. The applicant is not requesting FTZ manufacturing authority for the enrichment of uranium, and enrichment activity would not occur in an activated FTZ area. The request indicates that the savings from FTZ procedures would help improve the facility’s international competitiveness. E:\FR\FM\30APN1.SGM 30APN1

    An application has been submitted to the Executive Secretary of the 
Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by Georgia Foreign-Trade Zone, 
Inc., grantee of FTZ 26, requesting temporary/interim manufacturing (T/
IM) authority within FTZ 26 at the Perkins Shibaura Engines LLC 
(Perkins) facility in Griffin, Georgia. The application was filed on 
April 24, 2007.
    The Perkins facility (150 employees) is located at 325 Green Valley

In 2006, T/IM authority was approved for Perkins to manufacture compact 
diesel engines under FTZ procedures for the U.S. market and export (71 
FR 16756, 4-4-2006). The approval included authority to assemble up to 
30,000 engines annually using certain foreign and domestic material 
inputs for a two-year period (expires 2-21-2008).
    Based on the FTZ Board's modification of the T/IM procedure in 
September 2006, the applicant is now requesting additional authority 
under T/IM procedures for the remainder of its two-year period to 
assemble up to 50,000 diesel engines (HTSUS 8408.90; 10 - 60 
horsepower), with an expanded list of foreign-origin components. The 
additional foreign components that would be used in the FTZ assembly 
activity include: rubber tubes/pipes/hoses, reinforced or non-

authority (which will be docketed with the Board separately),

the foreign components used in production for export to non-NAFTA 
countries. On shipments to the U.S. and to NAFTA markets, Perkins could 
elect the finished engine duty rate (free) for the foreign components
