Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 1192]


Grant of Authority for Subzone Status; ISP Chemicals, Inc. 
(Specialty Chemicals) Calvert City, KY

    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, and when the activity results 
in a significant public benefit and is in the public interest;
    Whereas, the Louisville and Jefferson County Riverport Authority, 
grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 29, has made application to the Board for 
authority to establish a special-purpose subzone at the specialty 
chemicals manufacturing and warehousing facilities of ISP Chemicals, 
Inc., located in Calvert City, Kentucky (FTZ Docket 2-2001, filed 1/9/
01);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register 66 FR 3984, 1-17-01); 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 specialty chemicals manufacturing and warehousing 
facilities of ISP Chemicals, Inc., located in Calvert City, Kentucky 
(Subzone 29H), 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 27th day of September 2001.

Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, Alternate 
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
