DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[B-28-2024]
Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 75, Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; Lucid Motors USA, Inc.; (Lithium-Ion Batteries), Casa Grande
and Tempe, Arizona
Lucid Motors USA, Inc. (Lucid) submitted a notification of proposed
production activity to the FTZ Board (the Board) for its facilities
located in Casa Grande and Tempe, Arizona within Subzone 75N. The
notification conforming to the requirements of the Board's regulations
(15 CFR 400.22) was received on May 22, 2024.
Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ production activity would be
limited to the specific foreign-status material(s)/component(s) and
specific finished product(s) described in the submitted notification
(summarized below) and subsequently authorized by the Board. The
benefits that may stem from conducting production activity under FTZ
procedures are explained in the background section of the Board's
website--accessible via <a href="http://www.trade.gov/ftz">www.trade.gov/ftz</a>. The proposed finished
product(s) and material(s)/component(s) would be added to the
production authority that the Board previously approved for the
operation, as reflected on the Board's website.
The proposed foreign-status materials/components include: lithium-
ion battery cells and finished lithium-ion batteries (duty rate of
3.4%). The request indicates that certain materials/components may be
subject to 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). Lucid's original request for
production authority (B-37-2020) sought to admit the foreign-status
components described in this notification in PF status. This request
would remove the PF status limitation.
Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions
shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary and sent to:
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#95f3e1efd5e1e7f4f1f0bbf2fae3"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="1177656b5165637075743f767e67">[email protected]</span></a>. The closing period for their receipt is July 10, 2024.
A copy of the notification will be available for public inspection
in the ``Online FTZ Information System'' section of the Board's
website.

Dated: May 28, 2024.
Elizabeth Whiteman,
Executive Secretary.
