Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 230—
Greensboro, North Carolina;
Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; Patheon Softgels;
(Pharmaceutical Products); High Point,
North Carolina
The Piedmont Triad Partnership,
grantee of FTZ 230, submitted a
notification of proposed production
activity to the FTZ Board on behalf of
Patheon Softgels (Patheon), located in
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:53 Nov 14, 2018
Jkt 247001
High Point, North Carolina. The
notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on November 7, 2018.
Patheon already has authority to
produce certain prescription
pharmaceutical products and soft
gelatin capsules within Subzone 230C.
The current request would add a
finished product and a foreign status
material/component to the scope of
authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b),
additional FTZ authority would be
limited to the specific foreign-status
material/component and specific
finished product described in the
submitted notification (as described
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Patheon from customs
duty payments on the foreign-status
material/component used in export
production. On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status material/component
noted below and in the existing scope
of authority, Patheon would be able to
choose the duty rate during customs
entry procedures that applies to gelatin
encapsulated mono methyl fumarate
capsule (duty-free). Patheon would be
able to avoid duty on foreign-status
components which become scrap/waste.
Customs duties also could possibly be
deferred or reduced on foreign-status
production equipment.
The material/component sourced
from abroad is Mono Methyl Fumarate
(duty rate 6.5%). The request indicates
the material/component is subject to
special duties under Section 301 of the
Trade Act of 1974 (Section 301),
depending on the country of origin. The
applicable Section 301 decisions require
subject merchandise to be admitted to
FTZs in privileged foreign status (19
CFR 146.41).
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
addressed to the Board’s Executive
Secretary at the address below. The
closing period for their receipt is
December 26, 2018.
A copy of the notification will be
available for public inspection at the
Office of the Executive Secretary,
Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room
21013, U.S. Department of Commerce,
1401 Constitution Avenue NW,
Washington, DC 20230–0002, and in the
