Foreign-Trade Zone 201 Holyoke, Massachusetts, Application for 
Subzone, Mastex Industries, Inc. (Airbag Fabric for Export), Holyoke, 
Massachusetts

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 
(the Board) by the Holyoke Economic Development and Industrial 
Corporation, grantee of FTZ 201, requesting special-purpose subzone 
status for the manufacture of airbag fabric for export only at the 
facility of Mastex Industries, Inc. (Mastex), located in Holyoke, 
Massachusetts. The application was submitted pursuant to the provisions 
of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the 
regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on 
August 16, 2007.
    The Mastex facility (60 employees, 6 acres, 30 million yard 
capacity) is located on Cabot and Bigelow Streets, in Holyoke, 
Massachusetts. The facility will be used for the water jet weaving of 
fabric for automotive airbags (HTS duty rate 13.6[percnt]) using 
imported high-tenacity nylon yarn (duty rate 8.8[percnt]). The yarn 
would be admitted to the subzone in privileged foreign status (i.e., 
duty rate could not change under FTZ procedures).
    FTZ procedures would exempt Mastex from customs duty payments on 
the foreign components used in export production to non-NAFTA 
countries, approximately 50 percent of the plant's shipments. On sales 
to NAFTA markets, Mastex would be able to defer the duty on the 
imported yarn. The request indicates that the savings from FTZ 
procedures would help improve the plant'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.
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions
