Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 971]


Grant of Authority for Subzone Status; Henkel Corporation; 
Natural Vitamin E; Kankakee, IL

    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 Illinois International Port 
District, grantee of FTZ 22, for authority to establish special-purpose 
subzone status at the natural vitamin E production facility of Henkel 
Corporation, in Kankakee, Illinois, was filed by the Board on June 4, 
1997, and notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (FTZ Docket 46-97, 62 FR 32581, 6/16/97); and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the 
application is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone 
status at the natural vitamin E production facility of Henkel 
Corporation, located in Kankakee, Illinois (Subzone 22K), at the 
location described in the application, and subject to the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations, including Sec. 400.28.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 1st day of April 1998.
Robert S. LaRussa,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, Alternate 
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.

    Attest:
Dennis Puccinelli,
Acting Executive Secretary.
