(Optically Variable Pigments); Chandler, Arizona VIAVI Solutions, Inc. (VIAVI) submitted a notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its facility in Chandler, Arizona. The notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on July 29, 2021. A separate application has been submitted for FTZ designation at the company’s facility under FTZ 75. The facility is used for the production of optically variable pigments. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be limited to the specific foreign-status materials and components and specific finished products described in the submitted notification (as described below) and subsequently authorized by the FTZ Board. VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:11 Aug 11, 2021 Jkt 253001 Production under FTZ procedures could exempt VIAVI from customs duty payments on the foreign-status components used in export production. On its domestic sales, for the foreignstatus materials/components noted below, VIAVI would be able to choose the duty rate during customs entry procedures that applies to optically variable pigments and optically variable magnetic pigments (duty rate 3.1%). VIAVI 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 components and materials sourced from abroad may include: 15% virgin magnesium fluoride; magnesium fluoride condensate; magnesium fluoride with aluminum; aluminum wire; aluminum granules; chrome granules; stainless wire; polyethylene terephthalate film; optically variable pigments; and, optically variable magnetic pigments (duty rate ranges from duty-free to 5%). The request indicates that polyethylene terephthalate film is subject to an antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/ CVD) order if imported from China. The FTZ Board’s regulations (15 CFR 400.14(e)) require that merchandise subject to AD/CVD orders, or items which would be otherwise subject to suspension of liquidation under AD/ CVD procedures if they entered U.S. customs territory, be admitted to the zone in privileged foreign (PF) status (19 CFR 146.41). The request also indicates that certain materials/components are subject to duties under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (Section 232) or Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (Section 301), depending on the country of origin. The applicable Section 232 and Section 301 decisions require subject merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in PF status. 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 September 21, 2021. A copy of the notification will be available for public inspection in the ‘‘Reading Room’’ section of the Board’s website, which is accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz.

[Order No. 2116]


Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 158 (Expansion of Service 
Area); Under Alternative Site Framework; Vicksburg/Jackson, Mississippi

    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of 
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade 
Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:

    Whereas, the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Act provides for ``. . . the 
establishment . . . of foreign-trade zones in ports of entry of the 
United States, to expedite and encourage foreign commerce, and for 
other purposes,'' and authorizes the Board to grant to qualified 
corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade zones in or 
adjacent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection ports of entry;
    Whereas, the Board adopted the alternative site framework (ASF) (15 
CFR Sec. 400.2(c)) as an option for the establishment or reorganization 
of zones;
    Whereas, the Greater Mississippi Foreign-Trade Zone, Inc., grantee 
of Foreign-Trade Zone 158, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ 
Docket B-18-2021, docketed March 9, 2021) for authority to expand the 
service area of the zone to include Grenada and Panola Counties, 
Mississippi, as described in the application, adjacent to the Memphis 
(Tennessee) Customs and Border Protection port of entry;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (86 FR 14307, March 15, 2021) and the application has been 
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations are satisfied;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application to reorganize FTZ 158 to expand the service area 
under the ASF is approved, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's
