Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 155—
Calhoun/Victoria Counties, Texas;
Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; Caterpillar, Inc. (Tractors and
Forestry Machines); Victoria, Texas
The Calhoun/Victoria Foreign Trade
Zone, Inc., grantee of FTZ 155,
submitted a notification of proposed
production activity to the FTZ Board on
behalf of Caterpillar, Inc. (Caterpillar)
located in Victoria, Texas. The
notification conforming to the
requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was
received on September 27, 2019.
Caterpillar already has authority to
produce hydraulic track-type excavators
and related fabricated frame assemblies
within FTZ 155. The current request
would add finished products and
foreign-status materials/components to
the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15
CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority
would be limited to the specific foreignstatus materials/components and
specific finished products described in
the submitted notification (as described
VerDate Sep<11>2014
21:50 Oct 07, 2019
Jkt 250001
below) and subsequently authorized by
the FTZ Board.
Production under FTZ procedures
could exempt Caterpillar from customs
duty payments on the foreign-status
materials/components used in export
production. On its domestic sales, for
the foreign-status materials/components
noted below and in the existing scope
of authority, Caterpillar would be able
to choose the duty rates during customs
entry procedures that apply to tracktype tractors and forestry machines
(duty free). Caterpillar 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 materials/components sourced
from abroad include: Oil lubricant;
plastic hose assemblies; cork sheets;
cork gaskets for fuel tanks; cork plugs;
paper certificates; paper envelopes; steel
clamps for external mirrors; steel tooling
and dies; steel installation crimping
tools; steel brackets; flexible exhaust
tubes for cooling; steel brackets for wire
harnesses; steel plates for wire
harnesses; steel plates for whole frame
assemblies; heel assemblies; steel frame
assembly blocks; steel covers for frame
assemblies; undercarriage tracks;
walkway assemblies for frame of
excavators; steel sheets for frame
assemblies; tube assemblies for grease
lines; steel doors; radiator shrouds;
boom assemblies (whole boom); guard
assemblies for frame of excavators; steel
pins; ignition systems; horns for
excavator cabs; wiper blades for
excavator cabs; lighting for excavator
cabs; horn assemblies; wiper blade
assemblies; mounted cameras;
electronic navigational displays; alarm
assemblies for rollover/backup
protection; guard plates; steel
connectors; inertial measurement unit
navigational sensors; breakout electrical
testing sensors; electrical sensors; and,
boot scrapers (steel with plastic bristles)
(duty rate ranges from duty-free to
5.3%).
The request indicates that certain
materials/components are subject to
special duties 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 and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The
closing period for their receipt is
