[Order No. 701]
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status Florsheim Shoe Company
Plants (Leather Footwear), Jefferson City, MO
Pursuant to its authority under 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 Order:
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
qualified 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 St. Louis County Port Authority,
grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 102, for authorization for special-
purpose subzone status at the manufacturing and distribution facilities
of Florsheim Shoe Company in Jefferson City, Cape Girardeau, Kirksville
and West Plains, Missouri, was filed by the Board on August 13, 1993,
and notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal Register
(FTZ Docket 44-93, 58 FR 44652, 8/24/93); and,
Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the FTZ Act
and Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the
application is in the public interest;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby authorizes the establishment of a
subzone (Subzone 102C) at the plant sites of the Florsheim Shoe Company
in Jefferson City, Cape Girardeau, Kirksville and West Plains,
Missouri, at the locations described in the application, subject to the
FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including Sec. 400.28.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 11th day of August 1994.
