subsequently authorized by the FTZ
Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Driftwood LNG from
customs duty payments on the foreignstatus gaseous natural gas (duty-free)
used in export production. On its
domestic sales, for the foreign-status
gaseous natural gas, Driftwood LNG
would be able to choose the duty rates
during customs entry procedures that
apply to: Liquified natural gas and
stabilized condensate by-product (duty
rates are duty-free and 10 cents/barrel,
respectively). Driftwood LNG would be
