[Order No. 1819]
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status Piramal Critical Care, Inc., (Inhalation Anesthetics), Bethlehem, PA
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 special-purpose subzones when existing zone facilities cannot serve the specific use involved, and when the activity results in a significant public benefit and is in the public interest;
Whereas, Lehigh Valley Economic Development Corporation, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 272, has made application to the Board for authority to establish a special-purpose subzone at the inhalation anesthetic manufacturing and distribution facilities of Piramal Critical Care, Inc., located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania (FTZ Docket 52-2010, filed August 31, 2010);
Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the Federal Register (75 FR 54594-54595, 9/8/2010) 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's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations are satisfied, and that the proposal is in the public interest;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone status for activity related to the manufacturing and distribution of inhalation anesthetics at the facilities of Piramal Critical Care, Inc., located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania (Subzone 272B), as described in the application and Federal Register notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including Section 400.28.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 8th day of March 2012.
