Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[A(32c)-10-2009]


Foreign-Trade Zone 7--Mayaguez, PR; Scope Clarification Request; 
IPR Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Pharmaceuticals)

    A request for clarification of scope has been submitted to the 
Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by IPR Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 
(IPR), operator of IPR's pharmaceuticals manufacturing operations 
within FTZ 7, in Canovanas, Puerto Rico.
    Manufacturing authority for pharmaceuticals and intermediates at 
IPR's FTZ 7 manufacturing facilities was issued on December 14, 2001 
(Board Order 1203, 67 FR 71934, 12/03/2002). IPR listed in the original 
application specific component/product manufacturing which would be 
performed at the outset and also listed categories of components and 
products which might be sourced from abroad in the future. IPR has now 
informed the Board that future production will involve the use of an 
imported ingredient that was not specifically listed as a foreign-
sourced component in the original manufacturing request. The company 
intends to use a foreign-sourced active ingredient, AZD0530 difumarate 
(HTSUS 2934.99.3000--6.5%), in production of difumarate tablets (HTSUS 
3004.90.9115--duty-free).
    The FTZ staff invites the comments of interested parties for 
consideration in its review. Submissions shall be addressed to the 
Board's Executive Secretary at the address listed below. The closing 
period for their receipt is August 21, 2009.
    A copy of the request will be available for public inspection at 
the Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, Room 
2111, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW., 
Washington, DC 20230-0002, and in the ``Reading Room'' section of the 
Board's Web site, which is accessible via http://www.trade.gov/ftz. For 
further information, contact Diane Finver at [email protected], 
or (202) 482-1367.

    Dated: July 16, 2009.
