Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 33--Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 
Notification of Proposed Production Activity, DNP Imagingcomm America 
Corporation, Subzone 33E, (Thermal Transfer Ribbon Master Rolls), Mount 
Pleasant, Pennsylvania

    DNP Imagingcomm America Corporation (DNP), operator of Subzone 33E, 
submitted a notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ 
Board for its facility within Subzone 33E, located in Mount Pleasant, 
Pennsylvania. The notification conforming to the requirements of the 
regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on September 
4, 2015.
    DNP already has authority to produce thermal transfer ribbon (TTR) 
and monochrome TTR printer rolls using certain foreign-sourced 
components within Subzone 33E. The current request would add the 
production of TTR master rolls using foreign-sourced rolls of 
polyethylene terephthalate (PET)

[[Page 57786]]

film to the scope of authority. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), the 
additional FTZ activity would be limited to the specific foreign-status 
material and specific finished product described in the submitted 
notification (as described below) and subsequently authorized by the 
FTZ Board.
    Production under FTZ procedures could exempt DNP from customs duty 
payments on the foreign-status rolls of PET film (4.2% duty rate) used 
in export (an estimated 40 percent of shipments). On its domestic 
sales, DNP would be able to choose the duty rate during customs entry 
procedures that applies to TTR master rolls (duty rate 3.7%) for the 
foreign-status PET film. Customs duties also could possibly be deferred 
or reduced on foreign-status production equipment.
    The request notes that DNP's proposed activity would involve PET 
film that is subject to antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/CVD) 
orders. The FTZ Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.14(e)) require that 
merchandise subject to AD/CVD orders be admitted to the zone in 
privileged foreign status (19 CFR 146.41). DNP's request indicates that 
any PET film subject to an AD/CVD order, proceeding, or suspension of 
liquidation under AD/CVD procedures would be used only in production 
for export (no TTR master rolls made from PET film subject to AD/CVD 
orders would be shipped for U.S. consumption).
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions 
shall be addressed to the FTZ Board's Executive Secretary at the 
address below. The closing period for their receipt is November 4, 
2015.
    A copy of the notification will be available for public inspection 
at the Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, 
Room 21013, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW., 
Washington, DC 20230-0002, and in the ``Reading Room'' section of the 
FTZ Board's Web site, which is accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz.

or (202) 482-1367.

    Dated: September 17, 2015.

Executive Secretary.
