Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 265, Notification of Proposed Production
Activity; Unimacts Company; (Steel Products); Conroe, Texas
The City of Conroe, Texas, grantee of FTZ 265 has submitted a
notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board (the
Board) on behalf of the Unimacts Company for the company's facility in
Conroe, Texas within FTZ 265. The notification conforming to the
requirements of the Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.22) was received on
December 19, 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 finished products include flat-rolled steel
(electrolytically plated or coated with zinc) of various widths and
thicknesses, flat-rolled steel (zinc-coated/plated) of various widths
and thicknesses, and flat-rolled steel (coated or plated with various
materials) (duty-free).
The proposed foreign-status materials/components include flat-
rolled steel (electrolytically plated or coated with zinc) of various
widths and thicknesses, flat-rolled steel (zinc coated/plated) of
various widths and thicknesses, flat-rolled steel (coated or plated
with various materials), wide flat-rolled steel (electrolytically
plated or coated with zinc), wide flat-rolled steel (electrolytically
plated or coated with aluminum-zinc alloys), and wide flat-rolled steel
(plated or coated with zinc) of varying thicknesses (duty-free). The
request 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
privileged foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). The request indicates that
flat-rolled steel (electrolytically plated or coated with zinc) of
various widths and thicknesses, flat-rolled steel (zinc coated/plated)
of various widths and thicknesses, flat-rolled steel (coated or plated
with various materials), wide flat-rolled steel (electrolytically
plated or coated with zinc), wide flat-rolled steel (electrolytically
plated or coated with aluminum-zinc alloys), and wide flat-rolled steel
(plated or coated with zinc) of varying thicknesses are subject to an
antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/CVD) order/investigation if
imported from certain countries. 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 PF 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:
