    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 (FTZ) 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 Chattanooga Chamber Foundation, grantee of FTZ 134, 
has requested production authority on behalf of Wacker Polysilicon 
North America, LLC (Wacker), within Subzone 134B in Charleston, 
Tennessee (B-31-2019, docketed May 2, 2019);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (84 FR 20091, May 8, 2019) 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 
examiners' report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations would be satisfied, and that the proposal would 
be in the public interest if subject to the restriction listed below;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application for production authority under zone procedures 
within Subzone 134B on behalf of Wacker Polysilicon North America, LLC, 
as described in the application and Federal Register notice, is 
approved, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including 
Section 400.13, and further subject to a restriction prohibiting the 
admission of foreign-status silicon metal subject to an antidumping or 
countervailing duty order.

    Dated: August 21, 2020.
