Foreign-Trade Zone 207-Richmond, Virginia;Application for Subzone;Qimonda North America Corporation;(Dynamic Random Access Memory Modules Distribution);Sandston, VA
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by the Capital Region Airport Commission, grantee of FTZ 207, requesting special-purpose subzone status for the warehousing and distribution facility of Qimonda North America Corporation (Qimonda), located in Sandston, Virginia. The application was submitted pursuant to the provisions of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on December 2, 2008.
The Qimonda facility (10 employees, 210 acres, 1,435,278 square feet) is located at 6000 Technology Boulevard, Sandston, Virginia. The facility is used for the storage and distribution of dynamic random access memory modules (duty-free).
FTZ designation would allow Qimonda to realize logistical benefits through the use of weekly customs entry procedures. The request indicates that the savings from FTZ procedures would help improve the facility's international competitiveness.
In accordance with the Board's regulations, Elizabeth Whiteman of the FTZ Staff is designated examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board.
