Proposed Foreign-Trade Zone, Caledonia, Essex and Orleans 
Counties, VT, Under Alternative Site Framework

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) 
Board (the Board) by the Northeastern Vermont Development Association 
(NVDA) to establish a general-purpose foreign-trade zone at sites in 
Caledonia, Essex and Orleans Counties, Vermont, within/adjacent to the 
Derby Line Customs and Border Protection (CBP) port of entry, under the 
alternative site framework (ASF) adopted by the Board (74 FR 1170-1173, 
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. The applicant is authorized to make the proposal under 
Vermont State Law, Title 9, Chapter 111, Section 4122. The proposed 
zone would be the first general-purpose zone for the Derby Line CBP 
port of entry.
    The applicant's proposed service area under the ASF would be 
Caledonia, Essex and Orleans Counties, Vermont. If approved, the 
applicant would be able to serve sites throughout the service area 
based on companies' needs for FTZ designation. The proposed service 
area is within/adjacent to the Derby Line CBP port of entry.
    The proposed zone would include three ``magnet'' sites as follows: 
Proposed Site 1 (21 acres)--NVDA Orleans Industrial Park, Industrial 
Park Lane, Orleans (Orleans County); Proposed Site 2 (91 acres)--NVDA 
St. Johnsbury-Lyndon Industrial Park, 1713 Industrial Parkway, 
Lyndonville (Caledonia County); and, Proposed Site 3 (183 acres)--
within the 548-acre Newport State Airport, Coventry (Orleans County). 
The initial ``usage-driven'' site is as follows: Proposed Site 4 (26 
acres)--AnC-BIO Vermont, Inc. facility, 172 Bogner Drive, Newport 
(Orleans County). Sites 1 and 2 are owned by NVDA. Site 3 is owned by 
the State of Vermont. Site 4 is owned by GSI of Dade County, Inc. 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 application indicates a need for zone services in Caledonia, 
Essex and Orleans Counties, Vermont. Several firms have indicated an 
interest in using zone procedures for warehousing/distribution 
activities for a variety of products. Specific manufacturing approvals 
are not being sought at this time. Such requests would be made to the 
Board on a case-by-case basis.
    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.
