DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 704]

 

Grant of Authority for Subzone Status, Peavey Electronics 
Corporation (Electronic Audio and Acoustical Products), Meridian, MS, 
Area

    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 Vicksburg/Jackson Foreign Trade 
Zone, Inc., grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 158, for authority to 
establish special-purpose subzone status at the electronic audio and 
acoustical products manufacturing facilities (9 sites) of the Peavey 
Electronics Corporation in the Meridian, Mississippi, area, was filed 
by the Board on August 19, 1993, and notice inviting public comment was 
given in the Federal Register (FTZ Docket 47-93, 58 FR 46627, 9-2-93); 
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 158B) at the plant sites of the Peavey Electronics 
Corporation in the Meridian,
 Mississippi, area, 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 12th day of September 1994.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, Alternate
