DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 1046]
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status CN Biosciences, Inc.
Distribution and Processing Facility (Life Science Chemicals) San
Diego, CA
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, the Foreign-Trade Zones Act provides 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,'' and authorizes the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 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, the City of San Diego, California, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 153, has made application to the Board for authority to
establish special-purpose subzone status at the life science chemical
distribution and processing facility of CN Biosciences, Inc., located
in San Diego, California (FTZ Docket 17-95, filed 4/26/95);
Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the
Federal Register (60 FR 24830, 5/10/95); and,
Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and
the Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the
application would be in the public interest if subject to restriction;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone
status at the life science chemical distribution and processing
facility of CN Biosciences, Inc., located in San Diego, California,
(Subzone 153A), at the location described in the application, subject
to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including Sec. 400.28, and
further subject to a special restriction requiring that manufacturing/
processing activity conducted under zone procedures and resulting in a
change of HTSUS classification shall be limited to the level indicated
in the application (5%), and further, all such activity shall be
reported to the Board annually.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 27th day of July 1999.
Robert S. LaRussa,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, Alternate
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
