    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of

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 for specific uses;
    Whereas, the Port of Houston Authority, grantee of Foreign-Trade

    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (78 FR 49254, 8/13/2013) and the application has been

and the Board's regulations are satisfied;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby approves subzone status at the 
facilities of Toshiba International Corporation located in Houston, 
Texas (Subzone 84T), as described in the application and Federal 
Register notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, 
including Section 400.13.
