Dear Mr. Miranda: 
 
This letter is to formally notify the City of Chandler that Rinchem Company Inc ("Rinchem") intends to apply for 
FTZ Operator status at its facility located at 6805 W Morelos Pl. Chandler, AZ 85226, in the city of Chandler, 
Maricopa Country, in the state of Arizona. Rinchem is working with the Grantee of FTZ No. 75, City of Phoenix, 
on this endeavor.  
 
We plan to obtain FTZ status for this facility and operate the facility under zone procedures. 
Use of zone procedures will help our distribution operations to support specialize distribution of gas and 
chemicals to manufacturing activities of our clients in the area under FTZ procedures allowing their international 
competitiveness by allowing the company to realize administrative and customs cost savings as well as take 
advantage of global supply chain efficiencies inherent to the FTZ program. Rinchem employs 60 employees and 
our  operation supports local suppliers and service providers. 
 
We understand that the City of Chandler must file a resolution in support of Rinchem's request to the Grantee of 
FTZ No. 75, City of Phoenix.  Rinchem wishes to proceed with its FTZ Project in the most expeditious manner as 
possible.  
 
Rinchem confirms that it will not pursue or claim the beneficial property tax treatment available for new 
buildings and equipment as Class 6. 
 
Your attention to expedite your confirmation of support would be greatly appreciated. Please feel free to 
contact me at (505) 998-4128 or Sandi Privett (sprivett@rinchem.com) should you have any questions 
concerning the above. 
 
Sincerely, 
 
Sandi Privett 
Director of Sales Operations & Risk Management 
Rinchem Company Inc.
