Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 949]
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status Sargento Foods, Inc.,
(Cheese Processing), Plymouth, Wisconsin
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 Brown County, Wisconsin, grantee of
Foreign-Trade Zone 167, for authority to establish special-purpose
subzone status for export activity at the cheese processing plant of
Sargento Foods, Inc., in Plymouth, Wisconsin, was filed by the Board on
June 10, 1997, and notice inviting public comment was given in the
Federal Register (FTZ Docket 48-97, 62 FR 33830, 6-23-97); and,
Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and
Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the application
for export processing is in the public interest;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone
status for export activity at the Sargento Foods, Inc., plant in
Plymouth, Wisconsin (Subzone 167C), at the location
[[Page 3702]]
described in the application, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's
