Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 293--Limon, Colorado; Notification of 
Proposed Production Activity; Kaiser Premier LLC (Special Purpose 
Vehicles); Fort Morgan, Colorado

    The Town of Limon, Colorado, grantee of FTZ 293, submitted a 
notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board on behalf 
of Kaiser Premier LLC (Kaiser), located in Fort Morgan, Colorado. The 
notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the 
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on April 19, 2021.
    The Kaiser facility is located within Subzone 293A. The facility is 
used for production of special purpose vehicles. Pursuant to 15 CFR 
400.14(b), FTZ activity would be limited to the specific foreign-status 
materials and components and specific finished products described in 
the submitted notification (as described below) and subsequently 
authorized by the FTZ Board.
    Production under FTZ procedures could exempt Kaiser from customs 
duty payments on the foreign-status components used in export 
production. On its domestic sales, for the foreign-status materials/
components noted below, Kaiser would be able to choose the duty rates 
during customs entry procedures that apply to combined sewer cleaning 
and water recycling vehicles and hydro excavation equipment vehicles 
(duty free). Kaiser would be able to avoid duty on foreign-status 
components which become scrap/waste. Customs duties also could possibly 
be deferred or reduced on foreign-status production equipment.
    The components and materials sourced from abroad include back end 
vehicle body kits, water distributors, hose booms, hose guides, hand 
reels, water recycling systems, high pressure pumps, control cabinets, 
stainless steel tank covers, vacuum pumps, and copper check valves 
(duty rate ranges from duty free to 3.0%). The request indicates that 
certain materials/components are subject to duties under Section 301 of 
the Trade Act of 1974 (Section 301), depending on the country of 
origin. The applicable Section 301 decisions require subject 
merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in privileged foreign status (19 CFR 
146.41).
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions 
shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary and sent to: 
[email protected]. The closing period for their receipt is June 9, 2021.
    A copy of the notification will be available for public inspection 
in the ``Reading Room'' section of the Board's website, which is 
accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz.
    For further information, contact Juanita Chen at 
[email protected] or 202-482-1378.

    Dated: April 26, 2021.
Andrew McGilvray,
Executive Secretary.
