    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 Foreign-Trade Zones 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 Yuma County Airport Authority, grantee of FTZ 219, has 
made application to the Board for authority to establish special-
purpose subzone status at the lead-acid battery manufacturing facility 
of Johnson Controls Battery Group, Inc., located in Yuma, Arizona (FTZ 
Docket 48-2007, filed 09-28-07);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (72 FR 57287-57288, 10/09/2007); and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations have not been satisfied and that approval of 
the application would not be in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby does not approve the application 
for subzone status at the lead-acid battery manufacturing facility of 
Johnson Controls Battery Group, Inc., located in Yuma, Arizona.
