Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 718]


Grant of Authority for Expansion and Reorganization Foreign-Trade 
Subzones 146A and 146B; North American Lighting, Inc., (Motor Vehicle 
Lighting Products); Flora, IL

    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, by an Act of Congress approved June 18, 1934, an Act ``To 
provide 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,'' as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u) (the Act), the 
Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) is authorized 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, an application from the Bi-State Authority, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 146, requesting the expansion of the subzone 
boundaries and the level of manufacturing activity at Subzones 146A and 
146B at the North American Lighting, Inc., facilities in Flora and 
Salem, Illinois, and redesignation of the two subzones as Subzone 146A, 
was filed by the Board on April 14, 1994, and notice inviting public 
comment was given in the Federal Register (FTZ Docket 16-94, 59 FR 
23050, 5-4-94); and,
    Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the FTZ Act 
and Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the 
application is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby authorizes the expansion of the 
subzone boundaries and of the level of manufacturing activity at 
Subzones 146A and 146B at the plant sites of North American Lighting, 
Inc., in Flora and Salem, Illinois, and the redesignation of the two 
subzones as FTZ Subzone 146A, as described in the application, and 
subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including 
Sec. 400.28.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 27th day of December 1994.
Barbara R. Stafford,
Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, 
Alternate Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.

    Attest:
John Da Ponte, Jr.,
