Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 1038]


Grant of Authority for Subzone Status, Borg-Warner Automotive 
Powertrain Systems Corporation (Automotive Transfer Cases), Seneca, SC

    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 (the 
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, and when the activity results 
in a significant public benefit and is in the public interest;
    Whereas, the South Carolina State Ports Authority, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 38, has made application for authority to establish 
special-purpose subzone status at the automotive transfer case 
manufacturing plant of Borg-Warner Automotive Powertrain Systems 
Corporation (Inc.) located in Seneca, South Carolina (FTZ Docket 33-98, 
filed 6-23-99);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (63 FR 36213, 7-2-98); 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 
is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone 
status at the Borg-Warner Automotive Powertrain Systems Corporation 
(Inc.) located in Seneca, South Carolina (Subzone 38B), 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 3rd day of June 1999.
Richard W. Moreland,
Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, 
Alternate Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
