Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) 41, Notification of Proposed Production Activity; Dedicated Computing; (Computer Systems); Waukesha, Wisconsin

This site displays a prototype of a “Web 2.0” version of the daily Federal Register. It is not an official legal edition of the Federal Register, and does not replace the official print version or the official electronic version on GPO’s govinfo.gov. The documents posted on this site are XML renditions of published Federal Register documents. Each document posted on the site includes a link to the corresponding official PDF file on govinfo.gov. This prototype edition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov will remain an unofficial informational resource until the Administrative Committee of the Federal Register (ACFR) issues a regulation granting it official legal status. For complete information about, and access to, our official publications and services, go to About the Federal Register on NARA's archives.gov. The OFR/GPO partnership is committed to presenting accurate and reliable regulatory information on FederalRegister.gov with the objective of establishing the XML-based Federal Register as an ACFR-sanctioned publication in the future. While every effort has been made to ensure that the material on FederalRegister.gov is accurately displayed, consistent with the official SGML-based PDF version on govinfo.gov, those relying on it for legal research should verify their results against an official edition of the Federal Register. Until the ACFR grants it official status, the XML rendition of the daily Federal Register on FederalRegister.gov does not provide legal notice to the public or judicial notice to the courts.

Dedicated Computing submitted a notification of proposed production activity to the FTZ Board (the Board) for its facility in Waukesha, Wisconsin within FTZ 41. The notification conforming to the requirements of the Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.22) was received on June 8, 2026.

The proposed foreign-status materials/components include: computer keyboards; protective equipment cases for transporting electronic equipment; plastic plug insert used for securing power cord connections; printed product instructions; steel mounting brackets; steel fasteners; steel structural hardware; aluminum plates; metal mounting brackets; slide rails for racks; cabinet hardware; cooling fans; multifunction printers; static power converters; power supply units; lithium-ion battery packs; wireless antennas; media recording devices; blank optical discs; recorded optical media; smart cards; electronic indicator panels; high-voltage protection equipment; electrical connectors less than or equal to 1000 volts; optical fiber connectors; electrical terminals less than or equal to 1000 volts; power distribution boards; terminal block accessories; specialized electrical devices; insulated copper winding wires; coaxial cables; insulated cables with connectors; fiber optic cables; and, processor carrier components (duty rate ranges from duty-free to 6.5%). The request indicates that certain materials/components are subject to duties under section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 (Section 122), section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (section 232), or section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 (section 301), depending on the country of origin. The applicable section 122, section 232, and section 301 decisions require subject merchandise to be admitted to FTZs in privileged foreign (PF) status (19 CFR 146.41). The request also indicates that aluminum extrusion components used in computer system assemblies and rack or enclosure assemblies and aluminum extrusion cover or chassis components used in computer assemblies are subject to an antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/CVD) order/investigation if imported from China. The Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.13(c)(2)) require that merchandise subject to AD/CVD orders, or items which would be otherwise subject to suspension of liquidation under AD/CVD procedures if they entered U.S. customs territory, be admitted to the zone in PF status.
