Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 1882]


Approval of Subzone Status; Zimmer Manufacturing BV; Ponce, 
Puerto Rico

    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 subzones when existing zone facilities cannot serve 
the specific use involved;
    Whereas, Codezol, C.D., grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 163, has made 
application to the Board for the establishment of a subzone at the 
facility of Zimmer Manufacturing BV located in Ponce, Puerto Rico (FTZ 
Docket B-81-2012, docketed 11/8/2012);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (77 FR 68102, 11/15/2012) and the application has been 
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and the 
Board's regulations are satisfied;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby approves subzone status at the 
facility of Zimmer Manufacturing BV located in Ponce, Puerto Rico 
(Subzone 163A), as described in the application and Federal Register 
notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including 
Section 400.13.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 6th day of February 2013.
