Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 244--Riverside County, California; 
Notification of Proposed Production Activity; ModusLink Corporation 
(Camera and Accessories Kitting); Riverside, California

    ModusLink Corporation (ModusLink) submitted a notification of 
proposed production activity to the FTZ Board for its facility in 
Riverside, California. The notification conforming to the requirements 
of the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on 
June 28, 2018.
    ModusLink already has authority for the kitting of cameras and 
accessories into retail packages on behalf of Go Pro, Inc., within Site 
11 of FTZ 244. The current request would add finished products and 
foreign status materials/components to the scope of authority. Pursuant 
to 15 CFR 400.14(b), additional FTZ authority would be limited to the 
specific foreign-status materials/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 ModusLink from customs 
duty payments on the foreign-status materials/components used in export 
production. On its domestic sales, for the foreign-status materials/
components noted below and in the existing scope of authority, 
ModusLink would be able to choose the duty rates during customs entry 
procedures that apply to: Manfrotto/MBooms3K monopods; wireless 
transmitters; digital video camera bundles; pro seat rail mounts; karma 
upgrade kits (cameras, mounts, batteries, chargers, grips, and 
stabilizers); point of purchase displays, and lens replacement kits 
(duty rate ranges from duty-free to 10%). ModusLink would be able to 
avoid duty on foreign-status components which become scrap/waste. 
Customs duties also could possibly be deferred or reduced on foreign-
status production equipment.
    The materials/components sourced from abroad include: Dog harness 
camera mounts; chest mount harnesses (textile); camera mount hardware; 
USB

hubs (vertical 7-ports); remote controls; protective lens for cameras; 
protective lens cover films; inner tray plastic packaging; camera 
cases; bags, microfibers, and dive filters; carton tops paper 
packaging; envelopes; knob thumbscrew assemblies; screws, bolts, nuts, 
rivets, cotter pins, and washers (iron/steel); stainless steel nuts; 
non-threaded screws, nuts, washers, bolts; camera stands or tripods; 
screwdrivers; product security sensors; electrical switches and 
connectors; electrical boards; instruction guides; insulated logo 
bottles; textile bag packs; men's knitted shirts; men's t-shirts; 
women's t-shirts; men's sweatshirts; lithium-ion storage batteries; 
belt buckles (unisex); women's sweatshirts; men's jackets; hats 
(unisex) and, WiFi remote keys and rings (duty rate ranges from duty-
free to 32%). The request indicates that textile bag packs; textile 
chest mount harnesses; bags, microfibers, and dive filters; camera 
cases; men's knitted shirts; men's t-shirts; women's t-shirts; men's 
sweatshirts; lithium-ion storage batteries; women's sweatshirts, and 
men's jackets will be admitted to the zone in privileged foreign status 
(19 CFR 146.41), thereby precluding inverted tariff benefits on such 
items.
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions 
shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary at the address 
below. The closing period for their receipt is August 15, 2018.
    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
