I. Background
In a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(NPRM) published on May 18, 2009, in
the Federal Register (74 FR 23133),
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
proposed to amend the list of CBP ports
of entry at 19 CFR 101.3(b)(1) to extend
the limits of the port of Columbus, Ohio,
to include the Rickenbacker Intermodal
Terminal and supporting infrastructure
so that it will be within the newly
defined port limits.
In the NPRM, CBP explained that the
current port limits of the Columbus,
Ohio, port of entry are described in two
separate Treasury Decisions (T.D.s): T.D.
82–9, published in the Federal Register
(47 FR 1286) on January 12, 1982 and
effective February 11, 1982; and T.D.
96–67, published in the Federal
Register (61 FR 49058) on September
18, 1996 and effective October 18, 1996.
T.D. 82–9 specified the limits as
follows:
‘‘The geographical boundaries of the
Columbus, Ohio, Customs port of entry
include all of the territory within the
corporate limits of Columbus, Ohio; all of the
territory completely surrounded by the city
of Columbus; and, all of the territory
enclosed by Interstate Highway 270 (outer
belt), which completely surrounds the city.’’
T.D. 96–67 expanded the port limits
of Columbus, Ohio, to encompass the
port limits set forth in T.D. 82–9 as well
as the following territory:
‘‘Beginning at the intersection of Rohr and
Lockbourne Roads, then proceeding
southerly along Lockbourne Road to
Commerce Street, thence easterly along
Commerce Street to its intersection with the
N & W railroad tracks, then southerly along
the N & W railroad tracks to the Franklin-

Ohio.’’
CBP further explained in the NPRM
that the Columbus Regional Airport
Authority has partnered with the
Norfolk Southern Corporation to create
an intermodal facility immediately
adjacent to Rickenbacker International
Airport. In the NPRM, CBP stated that
the creation of the new Rickenbacker
Intermodal Terminal is an important
part of the Columbus Regional Airport
Authority’s plan to address a capacity
problem at current facilities in the area.
The terminal is located to the south of
the current port boundaries.
In order to accommodate the new
facility and supporting infrastructure so
that it falls within the newly defined
port limits, the NPRM proposed to
amend the port limits of the port of
Columbus, Ohio. In the NPRM, CBP
explained that this change will make the
port boundaries more easily identifiable
to the public and will result in better
service that is provided by the port to
the public by addressing a capacity
problem at current facilities in the area.
CBP determined that the change will not
require a change in the staffing or
workload at the port.
Interested parties were given until
July 17, 2009, to comment on the
proposed changes. No comments were
received in response to the notice.
Accordingly, CBP has determined to

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 233 / Monday, December 7, 2009 / Rules and Regulations
adopt the proposal as set forth in the
NPRM published in the Federal
Register (74 FR 23133) on May 18, 2009.
II. Conclusion
CBP is extending the geographical
limits of the port of Columbus, Ohio.
CBP believes that extending the
geographical limits of the port of
Columbus, Ohio to include the
Rickenbacker Intermodal Terminal and
supporting infrastructure will enable
CBP to more efficiently utilize its
personnel, facilities, and resources, and
to provide better service to carriers,
importers, and the general public. The
port of entry description of Columbus,
Ohio, will be revised as proposed in the
NPRM.
III. Port Description of Columbus, Ohio
The port limits of Columbus, Ohio,
which are expanded to include the
Rickenbacker Intermodal Terminal and
supporting infrastructure, encompass
the port limits set forth in T.D. 82–9 and
T.D. 96–67 and are as follows: The
geographical boundaries of the
Columbus, Ohio, port of entry include
all of Franklin County, and that part of
Pickaway County east of U.S. Route 23
and north of State Route 752, all in the
State of Ohio.
IV. Authority
This change is made under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 301; 19 U.S.C. 2,
66, and 1624; and section 403 of the
Homeland Security Act of 202, Public
Law 107–296, 116 Stat. 2178 (Nov. 25,
2002) (6 U.S.C. 203).
per the Small Business Act); a small notfor-profit organization; or a small
governmental jurisdiction (locality with
fewer than 50,000 people).
This rule does not directly regulate
small entities. The change is part of
CBP’s continuing program to more
efficiently utilize its personnel,
facilities, and resources, and to provide
better service to carriers, importers, and
the general public. To the extent that all
entities are able to more efficiently or
conveniently access the facilities and
resources within the expanded
geographical area of the new port limits,
this rule should confer benefits to CBP,
carriers, importers, and the general
public.
Because this rule does not directly
regulate small entities, CBP certifies that
this rule does not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities.
VI. Signing Authority
The signing authority for this
document falls under 19 CFR 0.2(a)
because the port extension is not within
the bounds of those regulations for
which the Secretary of the Treasury has
retained sole authority. Accordingly,
this final rule is signed by the Secretary
of Homeland Security.

Amendments to CBP Regulations
A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory
Planning and Review
This rule is not considered to be an
economically significant regulatory
action under Executive Order 12866,
because it will not result in the
expenditure of over $100 million in any
one year. The change is intended to
expand the geographical boundaries of
the Port of Columbus, Ohio, and make
it more easily identifiable to the public.
There are no new costs to the public
associated with this rule. Accordingly,
this rule has not been reviewed by the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under Executive Order 12866.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) published on May 18,
2009, in the Federal Register (74 FR 23133), Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) proposed to amend the list of CBP ports of entry at 19

In the NPRM, CBP explained that the current port limits of the
Columbus, Ohio, port of entry are described in two separate Treasury
Decisions (T.D.s): T.D. 82-9, published in the Federal Register (47 FR
1286) on January 12, 1982 and effective February 11, 1982; and T.D. 96-
67, published in the Federal Register (61 FR 49058) on September 18,
1996 and effective October 18, 1996.
T.D. 82-9 specified the limits as follows:
``The geographical boundaries of the Columbus, Ohio, Customs
port of entry include all of the territory within the corporate
limits of Columbus, Ohio; all of the territory completely surrounded
by the city of Columbus; and, all of the territory enclosed by
Interstate Highway 270 (outer belt), which completely surrounds the

T.D. 96-67 expanded the port limits of Columbus, Ohio, to encompass
the port limits set forth in T.D. 82-9 as well as the following
territory:
``Beginning at the intersection of Rohr and Lockbourne Roads,
then proceeding southerly along Lockbourne Road to Commerce Street,
thence easterly along Commerce Street to its intersection with the N

Franklin-Pickaway County line to its intersection with Pontius Road,
then northerly along Pontius Road to its intersection with Rohr

Lockbourne Road, the point of beginning, all within the County of
Franklin, State of Ohio.''
CBP further explained in the NPRM that the Columbus Regional

II. Conclusion
CBP is extending the geographical limits of the port of Columbus,
Ohio. CBP believes that extending the geographical limits of the port
of Columbus, Ohio to include the Rickenbacker Intermodal Terminal and

The port limits of Columbus, Ohio, which are expanded to include
the Rickenbacker Intermodal Terminal and supporting infrastructure,
encompass the port limits set forth in T.D. 82-9 and T.D. 96-67 and are
as follows: The geographical boundaries of the Columbus, Ohio, port of
entry include all of Franklin County, and that part of Pickaway County
east of U.S. Route 23 and north of State Route 752, all in the State of
Ohio.
IV. Authority

B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires
federal agencies to examine the impact a rule would have on small
entities. A small entity may be a small business (defined as any
independently owned and operated business not dominant in its field

(locality with fewer than 50,000 people).
This rule does not directly regulate small entities. The change is
