(Order No. 570)
Resolution and Order Approving With Restriction, Greater Rockford Airport
Authority; Dundee, IL
Thursday, April 9, 1992
Proceedings of the Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Washington, DC.
Resolution and Order
Pursuant to the authority granted in 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 Resolution and Order:
The Board, having considered the matter, hereby orders:
After consideration of the application of the Greater Rockford Airport
Authority, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 176, filed with the Foreign-
Trade Zones Board (the Board) on May 16, 1991, requesting special-purpose
subzone status for export activity at the animal feed plant of Milk
Specialties Company, in Dundee, Illinois, adjacent to the Chicago Customs
port of entry, the Board, finding that the requirements of the Foreign-Trade
Zones Act, as amended, and the Board's regulations would be satisfied, and
that the proposal would be in the public interest if approval were subject
to a restriction requiring that all foreign-origin dairy products and
foreign-origin sugar admitted to the subzone shall be reexported, approves
the application, subject to the foregoing restriction.
The approval is subject to the FTZ Act and the FTZ Board's regulations (as
revised, 56 FR 50790-50808, 10-8-91), including § 400.28. The Secretary of
Commerce, as Chairman and Executive Officer of the Board, is hereby
authorized to issue a grant of authority and appropriate Board Order.
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status Milk Specialties Company Plant
Dundee, IL
Whereas, by an Act of Congress approved June 18, 1934, an Act "To provide
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,"
as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u) (the Act), the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the
Board) is authorized to grant to corporations the privilege of establishing
foreign-trade zones in or adjacent to U.S. Customs ports of entry;
Whereas, the Board's regulations (15 CFR part 400) provide for the
establishment of special-purpose subzones when existing zone facilities
cannot serve the specific use involved, and where a significant public
benefit will result;
Whereas, the Greater Rockford Airport Authority, Grantee of Foreign-Trade
Zone No. 176 (Rockford, Illinois), has made application (filed 5-16-91, FTZ
Docket 28-91, 56 FR 25662, 6-5-91) to the Board for authority to establish
a special- purpose subzone at the animal feed products manufacturing plant
of Milk Specialties Company in Dundee, Illinois;
Whereas, notice of said application has been given published, and full
opportunity has been afforded all interested parties to be heard; and,
Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the Act and the
Board's regulations would be satisfied and that the proposal would be in
the public interest if approval were given subject to the restriction in
the resolution accompanying this action;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby authorizes the establishment of a subzone
at the Milk Specialities Company plant in Dundee, Illinois, designated on
the records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Subzone 176A, at the location
described in the application, subject to the restrictions in the resolution
accompanying this action, and to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations
(as revised, 56 FR 50790-50808, 10-8-91), including § 400.28.
Signed at Washington, DC., this 1st day of April 1992, pursuant to Order of
the Board.
