Board) by Brown County, Wisconsin,
grantee of FTZ 167, requesting specialpurpose subzone status for the
shipbuilding facility of Marinette
Marine Corporation (MMC), located in
Marinette, Wisconsin. 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 May
12, 2008.
The MMC facility (982 employees/53
acres/365,000 sq.ft.) is located at 1600
Ely Street in Marinette (Marinette
County), Wisconsin. The facility is used
to construct and repair patrol boats, tug
boats, supply vessels, research vessels,
anchor handlers, barges, and naval
warships for U.S. and international
customers. Foreign components that
would be used at the MMC shipyard
(representing about 20% of finished
vessel value) include: marine engines
and related parts, reduction gears,
propellers, anti-fouling system control
panels and anodes, mounting sleeves,
fin stabilizers, dynamic positioning
systems, winches, pumps, filtering
equipment, valves, electronic
components, wiring harnesses,
generator sets, anchors, bulb flats, doors,
windows, sanitary units, manholes, flow
meters, chain, and fenders (duty rate
range: free–5.0%).
FTZ procedures would exempt MMC
from customs duty payments on foreign
components used in export activity. On
domestic sales, MMC could be able to
elect the duty rate applicable to
oceangoing vessels (free) for the foreignorigin components noted above.
Customs duties also could possibly be
deferred or reduced on foreign status
production equipment. The
manufacturing and repair 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 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, Pierre Duy of the FTZ Staff
is designated examiner to investigate the
application and report to the Board.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions (original
and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the
Board’s Executive Secretary at the
address below. The closing period for
their receipt is July 15, 2008. Rebuttal
comments in response to material
submitted during the foregoing period
may be submitted during the subsequent
15-day period to July 30, 2008.
