    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

behalf of Morgan Fabrics Corporation, within FTZ 158 in Verona, 
Mississippi (FTZ Docket 17-2012, filed 3-19-2012);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (77 FR 17012, 3-23-2012) and the application has been 
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations would be satisfied, and that the proposal would 
be in the public interest if approval were subject to certain 
restrictions and conditions;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
