Foreign-Trade Zone 94—Laredo, TX;
Application for Reorganization Under
Alternative Site Framework
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board
(the Board) by the City of Laredo,
grantee of FTZ 94, requesting authority
to reorganize the zone under the
alternative site framework (ASF)
adopted by the Board (74 FR 1170–1173,
01/12/09 (correction 74 FR 3987, 01/22/
09); 75 FR 71069–71070, 11/22/10). 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 March 23, 2012.
FTZ 94 was approved by the Board on
November 22, 1983 (Board Order 235,
48 FR 53737, 11/29/83), and expanded
on March 26, 1990 (Board Order 468, 55
FR 12696, 4/5/90), on December 29,
1992 (Board Order 620, 58 FR 3533, 1/
11/93), on January 17, 1997 (Board
Order 866, 62 FR 4028, 1/28/97), on
November 28, 2000 (Board Order 1130,
65 FR 77851, 12/13/00), and on April 5,
2006 (Board Order 1443, 71 FR 19693,
4/17/06).
The current zone project includes the
following sites: Site 1 (491.738 acres)—
within the 1,600-acre Laredo
International Airport Complex, 5210
Bob Bullock Loop, Laredo; Site 2 (20
acres)—within the Texas Mexican
Railway Industrial Park, Highway 359,
Webb County; Site 3 (550 acres)—within
the 1,400-acre Killam Tract, 12800 Old
Miners Road, Laredo; Site 4 (1,500
acres)—within the 7,000-acre
International Commerce Center, located
adjacent to the Laredo Solitary Bridge
crossing into Mexico; Site 5 (930

Forwarding L.C., 130 Flecha Lane,
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
Laredo; Site 9 (1.158 acres, expires 12/

the El Portal Industrial Park, 12018
Auburn Road, Laredo; Site 10 (1 acre,
expires 2/28/14)—PG Distribution LLC,
within the El Portal Industrial Park,
8421 Amparan Road, Laredo; and, Site
11 (3.463 acres, expires 9/30/14)—Sony
Electronics, Inc., within the San Isidro
East Point Center, 11302 East Point
Drive, Building B, Laredo.
The grantee’s proposed service area
under the ASF would be Webb County,
Texas. 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 Laredo
Customs and Border Protection port of
entry.
The applicant is requesting authority
to reorganize its existing zone project
under the ASF as follows: Sites 1
through 7 would become ‘‘magnet’’
sites; and, Sites 8 through 11 would
become ‘‘usage-driven’’ sites. The
applicant proposes that Site 1 be exempt
from ‘‘sunset’’ time limits that otherwise
apply to sites under the ASF. No new
magnet or usage-driven sites are being
requested at this time.
In accordance with the Board’s
regulations, Camille Evans 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

Board’s Executive Secretary at the

their receipt is May 29, 2012. Rebuttal

The ASF is an option for grantees for the

sites for operators/users located within
a grantee’s ‘‘service area’’ in the context

(15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed
on March 23, 2012.
FTZ 79 was approved by the Board on
May 29, 1982 (Board Order 192, 47 FR
24760, 6/8/82) and expanded on
December 29, 1993 (Board Order 676, 59

The grantee’s proposed service area
under the ASF would be the Counties of
Hillsborough and Polk and the City of
Tampa, Florida, 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 Tampa Customs and
Border Protection port of entry.
The applicant is requesting authority
to reorganize and expand its existing
zone project under the ASF as follows:
Sites 1 and 3 would be removed; and,
Sites 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 would become
‘‘magnet’’ sites. The applicant is also
requesting approval of a new ‘‘magnet’’
site and an initial ‘‘usage-driven’’ site,
respectively: Proposed Site 9 (113
acres)—Rockefeller Group Park of
Commerce, 3401 Old Polk City Road,
Lakeland (Polk County), and, Proposed
Site 10 (60 acres)—Star Distribution
System Inc., 2302 Henderson Way, Plant
City (Hillsborough County). 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 5 be so exempted. Because the
ASF only pertains to establishing or
reorganizing a general-purpose zone, the
application would have no impact on
FTZ 79’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

Foreign-Trade Zone 79--Tampa, FL; Application for Reorganization/
Expansion Under Alternative Site Framework
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)
Board (the Board) by the City of Tampa, grantee of FTZ 79, requesting
authority to reorganize and expand the zone under the alternative site
framework (ASF) adopted by the Board (74 FR 1170, 1/12/09 (correction
74 FR 3987, 1/22/09); 75 FR 71069-71070, 11/22/10). 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 March 23, 2012.
FTZ 79 was approved by the Board on May 29, 1982 (Board Order 192,
47 FR 24760, 6/8/82) and expanded on December 29, 1993 (Board Order
676, 59 FR 1371, 1/10/94) and on November 21, 2000 (Board Order 1128,
65 FR 76217, 12/6/2000).
The current zone project includes the following sites: Site 1 (29
acres)--Tampa International Center, Adamo Drive and 22nd Street, Tampa
(Hillsborough County); Site 2 (33 acres)--Tampa International Airport
Cargo Complex, Tampa Boulevard and Lauber Way, Tampa (Hillsborough
County); Site 3 (50 acres)--Tampa Industrial Park, Malcolm McKinley
Drive and Fowler Avenue, Tampa (Hillsborough County); Site 4 (14
acres)--Tampa Convention Center, 333 South Franklin Street, Tampa

Point terminal complex, Maritime Boulevard, Tampa (Hillsborough
County); Site 6 (33 acres)--George B. Howell terminal facility, 20th
and Thrace Streets, Tampa (Hillsborough County); Site 7 (100 acres)--
Tampa International Airport jet fuel storage complex, Tampa
(Hillsborough County); Site 8 (2 acres)--East Tampa Container Station,
1831 Massaro Blvd., Tampa (Hillsborough County).
[[Page 19002]]
The grantee's proposed service area under the ASF would be the
Counties of Hillsborough and Polk and the City of Tampa, Florida, 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 Tampa Customs and Border Protection port of entry.
The applicant is requesting authority to reorganize and expand its
existing zone project under the ASF as follows: Sites 1 and 3 would be
removed; and, Sites 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 would become ``magnet'' sites.
The applicant is also requesting approval of a new ``magnet'' site and
an initial ``usage-driven'' site, respectively: Proposed Site 9 (113
acres)--Rockefeller Group Park of Commerce, 3401 Old Polk City Road,
Lakeland (Polk County), and, Proposed Site 10 (60 acres)--Star
Distribution System Inc., 2302 Henderson Way, Plant City (Hillsborough
County). 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 5 be so exempted. Because the
ASF only pertains to establishing or reorganizing a general-purpose
zone, the application would have no impact on FTZ 79's authorized
subzones.
In accordance with the Board's regulations, Kathleen Boyce of the

information presented in the application and case record and to report
findings and recommendations to the Board.
