Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 75--Phoenix, Arizona; Notification of
Proposed Production Activity; Honeywell Aerospace, Inc., (Aircraft
Engines, Systems and Components), Phoenix and Tempe, Arizona

    The City of Phoenix, grantee of FTZ 75, submitted a notification of
proposed production activity to the FTZ Board on behalf of Honeywell
Aerospace, Inc (Honeywell), located in Phoenix and Tempe, Arizona. The
notification conforming to the requirements of the regulations of the
FTZ Board (15 CFR 400.22) was received on May 3, 2013.
    The Honeywell facilities are located within Subzone 75J. The
facilities are used for the production of aircraft engines, systems and
components. Pursuant to 15 CFR 400.14(b), FTZ activity would be limited
to the specific foreign-status materials and 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 Honeywell from customs
duty payments on the foreign status components used in export
production. On its domestic sales, Honeywell would be able to choose
the duty rates during customs entry procedures that apply to: Turbofan

engines; turbo-propeller engines; turbo-shaft engines; auxiliary power
units; rotor assemblies; tube assemblies; hydraulic actuators; air-
turbine starters; wheel turbines; air-turbine pump systems; duct
temperature limiters; air/oil heat exchangers; oil cooler fans; fuel

instruments; duct temperature sensors; flow-sensing modules; air/
outflow-sensing modules; air-data modules; thermo switches; and,
temperature control valves (duty rate free--3.30%) for the foreign
status inputs noted below. Customs duties also could
