[Docket 41-2009]
Foreign-Trade Zone 158--Vicksburg/Jackson, MS; Amendment to
Application for Subzone; Max Home, LLC (Upholstered Furniture); Fulton
and Iuka, MS
A request has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the
Board) by the Greater Mississippi Foreign-Trade Zone, Inc. (GMFTZ),
grantee of FTZ 158, to amend its application requesting special-purpose
subzone status for the upholstered furniture manufacturing facilities
of Max Home, LLC (Max Home), located in Fulton and Iuka, Mississippi.
The application was docketed under 41-2009 on October 6, 2009 (74 FR
52454, 10-13-09).
GMFTZ is now requesting to add a third site to the proposed subzone
plan. The additional manufacturing plant and warehouse (100 employees/
26 acres/160,000 sq. ft.) are located at 1313 Sandlin Road, Fulton,
Mississippi. The facility will be used to produce cut-and-sewn
upholstery covers and finished upholstered furniture (chairs, seats,
sofas, sleep sofas, and sectionals). The additional production capacity
at the new site in Fulton would add 100,000 pieces to the applicant's
proposed scope of authority (new total capacity--270,000 pieces
annually).
Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions
(original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the Board's Executive
Secretary at the following address: Office of the Executive Secretary,
Room 2111, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW.,

during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-
day period to May 3, 2010.
