[Order No. 1416]


Approval of Manufacturing Authority, Within Foreign-Trade Zone

and Subassemblies)

    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of 
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u)(the Act), the Foreign-
Trade Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:
    Whereas, the Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce, grantee of FTZ 
222, has requested authority under Section 400.32(b)(1) of the Board's 
regulations on behalf of Mobis Alabama, LLC, to manufacture automotive 
components and subassemblies under FTZ procedures within FTZ 222 Site 
3, Montgomery, Alabama (Docket 58-2004, filed 12-15-2004);
    Whereas, pursuant to 15 CFR 400.32(b)(1), the Commerce Department's 
Assistant Secretary for Import Administration has the authority to act 
for the Board in making such decisions on new manufacturing/processing 
activity under certain circumstances, including situations where the 
proposed activity is the same, in terms of products involved, to 
activity recently approved by the Board (Sec.  400.32(b)(1)(i));
    Whereas, the FTZ Staff has reviewed the proposal, taking into 
account the criteria of Section 400.31, and the Executive Secretary has 
recommended approval, subject to restriction; and,
    Whereas, approval is subject to a restriction requiring that all 
foreign items classified under HTSUS 3921.90 and Textile Category 229 
must be admitted to the zone under privileged foreign status (19 CFR

    Now, therefore, the Assistant Secretary for Import Administration,
