capacity) is located at 3322 Road ‘‘N’’
NE, Moses Lake, Washington. The
facility is used for the manufacturing
and warehousing of solar grade
polysilicon and silane gas using
domestic and imported silicon metal
(duty rate ranges from 5.3–5.5%).
Pursuant to Section 400.33 of the
Board’s regulations, any silicon metal
subject to antidumping or
countervailing duties would be required
to be admitted to the subzone in
privileged foreign status (19 CFR
146.41).
FTZ procedures could exempt REC
Silicon from customs duty payments on
the silicon metal used in export
production. The company anticipates
that over 95% of polysilicon and 90%
of silane gas shipped from the plant will
be exported. On its domestic sales, REC
Silicon would be able to choose the
duty rates during customs entry
procedures that apply to polysilicon and
silane gas (duty rate ranges from duty–
free to 3.7%) for the foreign inputs
noted above. FTZ designation would
further allow REC Silicon to realize
logistical benefits through the use of
weekly customs entry procedures.
Customs duties also could possibly be
deferred or reduced on foreign status
production equipment. The request
indicates that the savings from FTZ
procedures would help improve the
plant’s international competitiveness.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, Elizabeth Whiteman 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 27, 2009. Rebuttal
comments in response to material
submitted during the foregoing period
may be submitted during the subsequent
15-day period to August 11, 2009.
A copy of the application will be
available for public inspection at the
Office of the Executive Secretary,
