(Docket A(32b1)-3-93)
Foreign-Trade Zone 54--Clinton County, NY,
Request for Export Manufacturing Authority;
(Bicycles)
Wednesday, July 7, 1993
A request has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board
pursuant to §400.32(b)(1) of the Board's regulations for approval of zone
export manufacturing authority within FTZ 54 by the Clinton County Area
Economic Development Corporation, grantee of FTZ 54. It was formally filed
on June 24, 1993.
The proposed operation involves the assembly for export of bicycles (HTS
8712.00.15 and 8712.00.25--duty rate 11% and 5.5%) by the U.S. Bicycle
Corporation, a subsidiary of Nevada Cycle and Sports, Ltd., of Canada.
Foreign-sourced components include frames, wheels, hubs, brakes, saddles,
peddles, grips, cranks, gears, and derailleurs (duty rate: 4.9-10%).
Zone procedures would exempt U.S. Bicycle from payment of Customs duties on
foreign components used in the exported finished products. The request
indicates that zone procedures will help promote the proposed export
activity.
Public comment on the proposal is invited from interested parties.
Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the Board's
Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period for their
receipt is September 7, 1993.
A copy of the application and accompanying exhibits will be available for
public inspection at the following location:
