(representing 75% of the value of the
finished inkjet ink) include potassium
hydroxide, surfactants, 1,2 hexanediol,
Tri-isoproanolamine, solvents, glycerin,
triethylene glycol monobutyl ether,
triethylene glycol, adipic acid,
emulsifiers, disodium salt dihydrate,
printing ink colorants (black, cyan,
brown, orange, violet, red green,
magenta and other), de-foamers,
solublizers, and biocides (duty rates
range from duty-free to 6.5%). The
scope otherwise would remain
unchanged.
FTZ procedures could exempt EPI
from customs duty payments on the
additional foreign components used in
export production. The company
anticipates that some 55 percent of the
plant’s shipments will be exported,
either as finished inkjet ink or in inkjet
cartridges. On its domestic sales, EPI
would be able to choose the duty rates
during customs entry procedures that
apply to inkjet ink (duty rate—1.8%) or
inkjet printer cartridges (duty-free) for
the additional foreign inputs noted
above. EPI would also be exempt from
duty payments on foreign materials that
become scrap or waste during the
production process. The request
indicates that the additional savings
from FTZ procedures would help
improve the plant’s international
competitiveness.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, Diane Finver of the FTZ
Staff is designated examiner to evaluate
and analyze the facts and information
presented in the application and case
record and to report findings and
recommendations 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 March 26, 2012. Rebuttal
comments in response to material
submitted during the foregoing period
may be submitted during the subsequent
15-day period to April 10, 2012.
A copy of the application will be
available for public inspection at the
Office of the Executive Secretary,
Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room 2111,
U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401
