    Title: Petroleum Refineries in Foreign Trade Sub-Zones.
    OMB Number: 1651-0063.
    Abstract: The Foreign Trade Zones Act, 19 U.S.C. 81c(d) contains 
specific provisions for petroleum refinery sub-zones. It permits 
refiners and CBP to assess the relative value of such products at the 
end of the manufacturing period during which these products were 
produced when the actual quantities of these products resulting from 
the refining process can be measured with certainty.
    19 CFR 146.4(d) provides that the operator of the refinery sub-zone 
is required to retain all records relating to the above mentioned 
activities for five years after the merchandise is removed from the 
sub-zone. Further, the records shall be readily available for CBP 
review at the sub-zone.
    Instructions on compliance with these record keeping provisions are 
available in the Foreign Trade Zone Manual which is accessible at: 
http://www.cbp.gov/document/guides/foreign-trade-zones-manual.
    Action: CBP proposes to extend the expiration date of this 
information collection with no change to the burden hours or to the 
information collected.
    Type of Review: Extension (without change).
    Affected Public: Businesses.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 81.
    Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 81.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1000 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 81,000.

    Dated: February 17, 2016.
