[Docket 31-2009]


Foreign-Trade Zone 54--Clinton County, NY; Application for 
Reorganization Under Alternative Site Framework

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) 
Board (the Board) by Clinton County, New York, grantee of FTZ 54, 
requesting authority to reorganize the zone under the alternative site 
framework (ASF) adopted by the Board (74 FR 1170, 01/12/09; correction 
74 FR 3987, 01/22/09). The ASF is an option for grantees for the 
establishment or reorganization of general-purpose zones and can permit 
significantly greater flexibility in the designation of new ``usage-
driven'' FTZ sites for operators/users located within a grantee's 
``service area'' in the context of the Board's standard 2,000-acre 
activation limit for a general-purpose zone project. The application 
was submitted pursuant to 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 July 31, 2009.
    The grantee's proposed service area under the ASF would be Clinton 
County, New York. If approved, the grantee would be able to serve sites 
throughout the service area based on companies' needs for FTZ 
designation. The proposed service area is adjacent to the Champlain 
Customs and Border Protection port of entry.
    FTZ 54 was approved on February 14, 1980 (Board Order 153, 45 FR 
12469, 02/26/80), and expanded on: September 23, 1982 (Board Order 196, 
47 FR 43012, 09/30/82); May 29, 1996 (Board Order 829, 61 FR 28840, 06/
06/96); May 29, 2001 (Board Order 1169, 66 FR 31612, 06/12/01); and 
November 16, 2001 (Board Order 1199, 66 FR 59235, 11/27/01). The 
applicant is requesting to include its current sites in the reorganized 
zone as ``magnet'' sites. The applicant proposes that Site 4 be exempt 
from ``sunset'' time limits that otherwise apply to sites under the 
ASF. No usage-driven sites are being proposed at this time. Because the 
ASF only pertains to establishing or reorganizing a general-purpose 
zone, the application would have no impact on FTZ 54's authorized 
subzones.
    In accordance with the Board's regulations, Kathleen Boyce of the 
FTZ Staff is designated examiner to evaluate and analyze the facts and 
information presented in the application and case record and to report 
findings and recommendations 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 the address below. The closing period for their receipt is 
October 5, 2009. Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted 
during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-
day period (to October 20, 2009).
    A copy of the application will be available for public inspection 
at the Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, 
Room 2111, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW., 
Washington, DC 20230-0002, and in the ``Reading Room'' section of the 
Board's Web site, which is accessible via https://www.trade.gov/ftz. For 
further information, contact Kathleen Boyce at Kathleen_Boyce@ita.doc.gov or 202-482-1346.
