Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 1007]

 
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status; Harris Corporation--
Electronic Systems Sector (Telecommunications/Information Systems), 
Brevard County, Florida

    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 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;
    Whereas, the Canaveral Port Authority, grantee of Foreign-Trade 
Zone 136, has made application to the Board for authority to establish 
special-purpose subzone status at the telecommunications/information 
manufacturing facilities of Harris Corporation--Electronic Systems 
Sector, located at sites in Brevard County, Florida, (FTZ Docket 84-97, 
filed 12/22/97);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (63 FR 2660, 1/16/98); 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 approval of the 
application is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants authority for subzone 
status at the telecommunications/information systems manufacturing 
facilities of Harris Corporation--Electronic Systems Sector, located at 
sites in Brevard County, Florida (Subzone 136C), at the locations 
described in the application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the 
Board's regulations, including Sec. 400.28.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 16th day of November 1998.
