Foreign-Trade Zone 38—Spartanburg
County, SC; Application for
Reorganization/Expansion under
Alternative Site Framework
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board
(the Board) by the South Carolina State
Ports Authority, grantee of FTZ 38,
requesting authority to expand the zone
and reorganize 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 provisions of 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 May 19, 2010.
FTZ 38 was approved by the Board on
May 4, 1978 (Board Order 131, 43 FR
20526, 05/12/78), and expanded on
November 9, 1994 (Board Order 715, 59
FR 59992, 11/21/94), on July 23, 1997
(Board Order 910, 62 FR 40797, 07/30/
97), on January 8, 1999 (Board Order
1015, 64 FR 3064, 01/20/99), on July 21,
2005 (Board Order 1401, 70 FR 44559,
08/03/05), and on October 16, 2008
(Board Order 1583, 73 FR 63675, 10/27/
08).
The current zone project includes the
following sites: Site 1 (20 acres)—Global
Trade Center, 28 Global Drive,
Greenville; Site 2 (799 acres total)—
International Transport Center, Victor
Hill Rd., Greer, and Gateway
International Business Center,
Brookshire Rd. and SC Hwy.
101, Greer; Site 3 (116 acres total)—
Highway 290 Commerce Park, 201
Commerce Circle, Duncan, and Global
Automotive Partners, 150 Parkway W.,
Duncan; Site 4 (473 acres)—Wingo
Corporate Park, 5675 N. Blackstock Rd.,
Spartanburg; Site 5 (118 acres)—Key
Logistics, 101 Michelin Dr., Laurens;
Site 6 (20 acres)—Lakeside Business
Center, 2355 Hwy. 101 South, Greer;
Site 7 (19 acres)—ZF Lemforder, 191
Parkway West, Duncan; Site 8 (88
acres)—Riverbend Business Center, US
Hwy. 29 between I–85 and I–26,
Spartanburg; Site 9 (207 acres)—
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:41 May 28, 2010
Jkt 220001
Corporate Center, 100 Corporate Dr.,
Spartanburg, and Bryant Business Park,
170 Landers Street, Spartanburg; Site 10
(334 acres)—Interchange Commerce
Park, John Dodd Rd. and I–26,
Spartanburg; Site 11 (51 acres)—Caliber
Ridge Industrial Park, 125 Caliber Ridge
Dr., Greer; and, Site 12 (4 acres)—
Industrial Warehousing, dba Product
Action, 100 Fortis Dr., Duncan.
The grantee’s proposed service area
under the ASF would be Greenville,
Spartanburg, Cherokee, Oconee, Union,
Anderson, and Laurens Counties, as
described in the application. 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 within and adjacent to the Greenville/
Spartanburg Customs and Border
Protection port of entry.
The applicant is requesting authority
to reorganize and expand its existing
zone project to include existing Sites 2,
3, 4, 6, 9, 10, and 11 as ‘‘magnet’’ sites
and existing Sites 1, 5, and 7 as ‘‘usagedriven’’ sites, as well as to remove Sites
8 and 12 and to remove 5 acres from
Site 3 and 91 acres from Site 5. The ASF
allows for the possible exemption of one
magnet site from the ‘‘sunset’’ time limits
that generally apply to sites under the
ASF, and the applicant proposes that
Site 2 be so exempted. The applicant is
also requesting approval of the
following ‘‘magnet’’ site:
Proposed Site 13 (318 acres)—VMI
Logistics Park, Victor Hill Rd., Greer.
Because the ASF only pertains to
establishing or reorganizing a generalpurpose zone, the application would
have no impact on FTZ’s 38 authorized
subzones.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, Maureen Hinman 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 listed below. The closing period
for their receipt is August 2, 2010.
Rebuttal comments in response to
material submitted during the foregoing
period may be submitted during the
subsequent 15-day period (to August 16,
2010).
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,
