[Order No. 767]


Grant of Authority for Subzone Status; Rotorex Company, Inc. 
(Rotary Compressors), Walkersville, MD

    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 Maryland Department of 
Transportation, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 73, for authority to 
establish special-purpose subzone status at the rotary compressor 
manufacturing plant of the Rotorex Company, Inc., in Walkersville, 
Maryland, was filed by the Board on September 6, 1994, and notice 
inviting public comment was given in the Federal Register (FTZ Docket 
30-94, 59 FR 48850, 9-23-94); 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 73A) at the Rotorex Company, Inc., plant in 
Walkersville, Maryland, at the location described in the application, 
subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including 
Sec. 400.28.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 1st day of September 1995.
