The existing zones are as follows: PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 20469 FTZ 146, Lawrence County, Illinois (Grantee: Bi-State Authority, Board Order 371, 2/11/1988); and, FTZ 177, Evansville, Indiana (Grantee: Ports of Indiana, Board Order 513, 3/12/1991). The applicant’s proposed service area under the ASF would be portions of McCracken and Livingston Counties. If approved, the applicant would be able to serve sites throughout the service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation. The applicant has stated that the proposed service area is adjacent to the Evansville Customs and Border Protection port of entry. The proposed zone would include one ‘‘magnet’’ site: Proposed Site 1 (30 acres)—Paducah/McCracken Riverport, 2000 Wayne Sullivan Drive, Paducah, McCracken County. The application indicates a need for zone services in the Western Kentucky area. Specific production approvals are not being sought at this time. Such requests would be made to the FTZ Board on a case-by-case basis. 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.
