L.L.C. (Shipbuilding), Houma, Louisiana

    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:
    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 Board to grant to qualified 
corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade zones in or 
adjacent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection 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 Port of South Louisiana Commission, grantee of FTZ 
124, has made application for authority to establish special-purpose 
subzone status at the shipbuilding facility of Candies Shipbuilders, 
L.L.C., located in Houma, Louisiana (FTZ Docket 17-2007, filed 4-20-
2007);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register(72 FR 21218, 4-30-2007); 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 given 
subject to the standard shipyard restriction on foreign steel mill 
products;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone 
status for activity related to shipbuilding and repair at the shipyard 
of Candies Shipbuilders, L.L.C., in Houma, Louisiana (Subzone 124L), at 
the location described in the application, subject to the FTZ Act and

following special conditions: (1) any foreign steel mill products 
admitted to the subzone, including plate, angles, shapes, channels, 
rolled steel stock, bars, pipes and tubes, not incorporated into 
merchandise otherwise classified, and which is used in manufacturing, 
shall be subject to customs duties in accordance with applicable law, 
unless the Executive Secretary determines that the same item is not 
then being produced by a domestic steel mill; and, (2) Candies 
Shipbuilders, L.L.C., shall annually advise the Board's Executive 
Secretary (Sec.  400.28(a)(3)) as to significant new contracts with 
appropriate information concerning foreign purchases otherwise 
dutiable, so that the Board may consider whether

any foreign dutiable items are being imported for manufacturing in the 
subzone primarily because of subzone status and whether the Board 
should consider requiring customs duties to be paid on such items.
    Signed at Washington, DC, this 7th day of March 2008.
