Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 45, Notification of Proposed Production
Activity, SSI Shredding Systems, Inc., (Industrial Shredders and
Compactors), Wilsonville and Portland, Oregon
SSI Shredding Systems, Inc. submitted a notification of proposed
production activity to the FTZ Board (the Board) for its facilities in
Wilsonville and Portland, Oregon within Subzone 45J. The notification
conforming to the requirements of the Board's regulations (15 CFR
400.22) was received on April 11, 2025.
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: customized industrial
shredding machines; customized industrial compactor machines;
industrial cutting blades; drive shafts; spacers; drive assemblies;
hydraulic units; steel frame weldments; bearing assemblies; machined
steel parts for shredders and compactors; gears; hoppers; hoods;
guards; shields; screens; platforms; and, cleaning fingers (duty rate--
free).
The proposed foreign-status materials/components include: alloy
steel blanks for cutting blades; hydraulic cylinders; steel frame
weldments; steel blanks for structural framing; heavy wall round steel
tubing; steel round bar; steel rectangular bar; tapered roller
bearings; and, spherical roller bearings (duty rate--free or 5.8%). The
request indicates that certain materials/components are subject to
duties under section 1702(a)(1)(B) of the International Emergency
Economic Powers Act (section 1702), section 232 of the Trade Expansion
Act of 1962 (section 232) and/or section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974
(section 301), depending on the country of origin. The applicable
section 1702, section 232 and section 301 decisions require subject
merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in privileged foreign (PF) status
(19 CFR 146.41). The request also indicates that certain bearings are
subject to an antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/CVD) order/
investigation if imported from China. 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.
Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions
shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary and sent to:
