[B-37-2024]
Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 80, Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; Senior Operation LLC; (Expansion Joints and Clamshell
Bellows); New Braunfels, Texas
Senior Operation LLC submitted a notification of proposed
production activity to the FTZ Board (the Board) for its facility in
New Braunfels, Texas within FTZ 80. The notification conforming to the
requirements of the Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.22) was received on
June 28, 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 products include: metal expansion joints
(stainless and carbon steel) and clamshell bellows (stainless and alloy
steel) (duty rate ranges from duty-free to 5.5%).
The proposed foreign-status materials/components include: flat
rolled stainless steel (width of 6.35 mm to 50.8 mm) and cold-rolled
stainless-steel coils (width of 1.62 mm to 4.554 mm) (duty-free). The
request indicates that the materials/components are subject to duties
under section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (section 232) and
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 privileged
foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). The Board's regulations (15 CFR
400.13(c)(2)) 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 status.
Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions
shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary and sent to:
