Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 46--Cincinnati, Ohio; Notification of 
Proposed Production Activity, Festo Corporation (Pneumatic/Electric 
Cylinders and Drives, Valve Manifolds, Electronic Control Systems), 
Mason, Ohio

    Festo Corporation (Festo), an operator of FTZ 46, submitted a 
notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its 
facility located in Mason, Ohio. The notification conforming to the 
requirements of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was 
received on July 22, 2015.
    The Festo facility is located within Site 9 of FTZ 46. The facility 
is used for the production of pneumatic and electronic cylinders and 
drives, valve manifolds, and electronic control systems used for 
industrial automation applications. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ 
authority would be limited to the specific foreign-status 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 Festo from customs 
duty payments on the foreign status components used in export 
production. On its domestic sales, Festo would be able to choose the 
duty rate during customs entry procedures that applies to pneumatic and 
electric cylinders and drives, valve manifolds, and electronic control 
systems (duty rates ranges from free to 2.7%) for the foreign status 
components noted below. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred 
or reduced on foreign status production equipment.
