    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, the Foreign-Trade Zones Act provides 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,'' and authorizes the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the
Board) 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, and when the activity results
in a significant public benefit and is in the public interest;

Register (66 FR 30408, 6-6-2001); and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the
examiner's report, and finds 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 grants authority for subzone
status at the motor vehicle manufacturing plant of Toyota Motor
Manufacturing, Indiana, Inc., located in Princeton, Indiana (Subzone
177B), at the location described in the application, subject to the FTZ
