The ASF is an option for grantees for the establishment or reorganization of zones and can permit significantly greater flexibility in the designation of new subzones or ‘‘usage-driven’’ FTZ sites for operators/ users located within a grantee’s ‘‘service area’’ in the context of the FTZ Board’s standard 2,000-acre activation limit for a zone. The application was submitted pursuant to the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally docketed on October 14, 2014. FTZ 288 was approved under the ASF by the FTZ Board on November 26, 2013 (Board Order 1921, 78 FR 75330–75331; 12/11/2013). The zone currently has a service area that includes Cherokee, Lyon, O’Brien, Osceola, Plymouth and Sioux Counties, Iowa. The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the service area of the zone to include Woodbury County, Iowa, as described in the application. If approved, the grantee would be able to serve sites throughout the expanded service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation. The proposed expanded service area is adjacent to the Sioux Falls Customs and Border Protection Port of Entry. In accordance with the FTZ Board’s regulations, Elizabeth Whiteman 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 FTZ Board.
