The Board, having considered the matter, hereby orders:
After consideration of the application of the Foreign Trade Zone of

Trade Zones Board (the Board) on August 8, 1991, requesting special-purpose
subzone status for export activity at the cheese processing plant of Stauffer
Cheese, Inc., in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin, adjacent to the Milwaukee Customs
port of entry, the Board, finding that the requirements of the Foreign-Trade
Zones Act, as amended, and the Board's regulations are satisfied, and that
the proposal is in the public interest, approves the application, subject to
a restriction requiring that all foreign-origin dairy products admitted to
the subzone shall be reexported, as indicated in the application.
The approval is subject to the FTZ Act and the FTZ Board's regulations (as

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;
Whereas, an application from the Foreign Trade Zone of Wisconsin, Ltd.,
Grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone No. 41, for authority to establish a special-
purpose subzone for export activity at the cheese processing plant of

Register on August 16, 1991 (FTZ Docket 46-91, 56 FR 40863, 08-16-91); and,
Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the Act and the
Board's regulations are satisfied and that approval of the application for
export processing is in the public interest;
