North Brunswick, New Jersey

    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 and Border Protection 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 Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 49, has made application for authority to establish 
special-purpose subzone status at the swimwear and beach accessories 
distribution facility of In Mocean Group, LLC, in North Brunswick, New 
Jersey (Docket 45-2007, filed 8/31/2007);
    WHEREAS, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (72 FR 51780, 9/11/2007); 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 would be satisfied, and that approval of the 
application would be in the public interest if approval were subject to 
a restriction;
    NOW, THEREFORE, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone 
status for activity related to swimwear and beach accessories 
distribution at the In Mocean Group, LLC, facility located in North 
Brunswick, New Jersey (Subzone 49K), as described in the application 
and Federal Register notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's 
regulations, including Section 400.28, and further subject to a 
restriction that all foreign-origin textile and apparel products that 
are subject to U.S. import quotas will be admitted to the proposed 
subzone under privileged foreign status (19 CFR Sec. 146.41) or 
domestic (duty-paid) status (19 CFR Sec. 146.43).
