Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 1299]


Grant of Authority for Subzone Status; Decatur Mold Tool & 
Engineering, Inc. (Plastic Injection Molds), North Vernon, IN

    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 Indianapolis Airport Authority, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 72, has made application to the Board for authority to 
establish a special-purpose subzone at the plastic injection molds 
manufacturing and warehousing facilities of Decatur Mold Tool & 
Engineering, Inc., located in North Vernon, Indiana (FTZ Docket 62-
2002, filed 12/17/02);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (67 FR 79047, 12-27-02); 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 plastic injection molds manufacturing and warehousing 
facilities of Decatur Mold Tool & Engineering, Inc., located in North 
Vernon, Indiana (Subzone 72R), at the location described in the 
application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, 
including section 400.28.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 25th day of August, 2003.
Jeffrey May,
Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, 
Alternate Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
