BILLING CODE 8230-01-M DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Foreign-Trade Zones Board [Docket 14-2006] Foreign-Trade Zone 177—Evansville, Indiana, Application for Subzone, Pfizer Inc., (Pharmaceutical Products), Terre Haute, IN An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) by the Indiana Port Commission, grantee of FTZ 177, requesting special purpose subzone status for the manufacturing and warehousing facilities of Pfizer Inc (Pfizer), located in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana.

The application was submitted pursuant to the provisions of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on April 12, 2006. The Pfizer facilities consist of three sites on 532 acres in Terre Haute, Indiana: Site 1 (27 bldgs. on 521 acres/386,932 sq. ft., about half of which is devoted to Exubera® manufacturing) located at 411 East Dallas Road; Site 2 (1 bldg. on 3 acres/61,952 sq. ft.) located at 1383 Aberdeen Street; and, Site 3 (1 bldg. on 8 acres/45,936 sq. ft.) located at 1650 East Industrial Drive.

Site 1 is used to manufacture pharmaceutical products. Sites 2 and 3 are used for warehousing, storage and distribution activities. Pfizer employees approximately 340 employees at the sites. Pfizer is requesting authority to manufacture the drug Exubera® (HTS 3004.31, duty-free) under zone procedures. Exubera® is an inhaled, powdered insulin formulation used in the treatment of diabetes. Initial zone savings will come from the elimination of inverted tariffs on the following components sourced from abroad used in the production of Exubera®: mannitol (HTS 2905.43, 4.6% duty rate) which is an inactive ingredient used in the manufacturing process and base aluminum foil (HTS 3921.90, 4.2% duty rate) which is used in packaging the final product in dosage form.

FTZ procedures would exempt Pfizer from Customs duty payments on the foreign components used in export production. Some 30 percent of the plant's initial shipments are to be exported. On its domestic sales, Pfizer would be able to choose the duty rates during Customs entry procedures that apply to the finished pharmaceutical product (duty-free) for the foreign inputs noted above. The request indicates that the savings generated from FTZ procedures would help improve the plant's international competitiveness.

In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ staff has been appointed examiner to investigate the application and report to the Board. Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the Board's Executive Secretary at one of the following addresses: 1. Submissions Via Express/Package Delivery Services: Foreign-Trade Zones Board, U.S. Department of Commerce, Franklin Court Building—Suite 4100W, 1099 14th St.

NW., Washington, DC 20005: or 2. Submissions Via the U.S. Postal Service: Foreign-Trade-Zones Board, U.S. Department of Commerce, FCB - Suite 4100W, 1401 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20230. The closing period for their receipt is June 20, 2006. Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period July 5, 2006. A copy of the application and accompanying exhibits will be available for public inspection at the Office of the Foreign-Trade Zones Board's Executive Secretary at the first address listed above, and at the U.S.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 21, 2006. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Katharine Huang, AD/CVD Operations, Office 8, Import Administration, International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, 14th Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230; telephone:

(202)482-1271. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background The Department of Commerce (“The Department”) published the preliminary results of the administrative review and new shipper reviews of the antidumping duty order on fresh garlic from the People's Republic of China covering the period November 1, 2003, through October 31, 2004, on November 18, 2005. *See Fresh Garlic from the People's Republic of China: Preliminary Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and Preliminary Results of New Shipper Reviews* , 70 FR 69942 (November 18, 2005) (“ *Preliminary Results* ”). Extension of Time Limits for Final Results Pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (“the Act”), and section 351.213(h)(1) of the Department's regulations, the Department shall issue the preliminary results of an administrative review within 245 days after the last day of the anniversary month of the date of publication of the antidumping duty order. The Act further provides that the Department shall issue the final results of review within 120 days after the date on which the notice of the preliminary results was published in the **Federal Register** . However, if the Department determines that it is not practicable to complete the review within this time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act and section 351.213(h)(2) of the Department's regulations allow the Department to extend the 245-day period to 365 days and the 120-day period to 180 days. Furthermore, pursuant to 751(a)(2)(B)(iv) of the Act, the Department shall make a final determination in a new shipper review within 90 days after the date the preliminary determination is issued. However, if the Department concludes that the case is extraordinarily complicated, the Department may extend the 90-day period to 150 days. We determined that it was not practicable to complete these reviews by the unextended statutory deadline of March 18, 2006. 1 Furthermore, the Department found that it would be extraordinarily complicated to complete the final results of the new shipper reviews within this time frame because several significant issues were raised in the briefs which warrant further analysis, including the “intermediate-product valuation methodology,” which we applied in the *Preliminary Results* , and the surrogate value for garlic bulbs ( *i.e.* , the intermediate product). Accordingly, on March 23, 2006, the Department extended these final results until no later than April 17, 2006. *See Notice of Extension of Time Limit for Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and New Shipper Reviews: Fresh Garlic from the People's Republic of China* , 71 FR 14681 (March 23, 2006). 1 As noted in the *Preliminary Results* , the two new shipper respondents and the petitioners agreed to waive the time limits applicable to the new shipper reviews and to permit the Department to conduct the new shipper reviews concurrently with the administrative review. For these same reasons, the Department is further extending the time limit for the completion of these final results by nine days until no later than Wednesday, April 26, 2006, which is 159 days from the date on which the notice of the *Preliminary Results* was published. This notice is issued and published in accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A), 751(a)(2)(B)(iv), and 777(i) of the Act. Dated: April 14, 2006. Stephen J. Claeys, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration. [FR Doc.
