corporations, and government entities;
to analyze business operations in
comparison to similar firms, compute
market share, and assess business
growth and future prospects. Estimates
produced on R&D and innovation may
be used to compare R&D costs across
industries, determine where R&D
activity is conducted geographically,
and identify the types of businesses
with R&D; to contribute to the Bureau of
Economic Analysis (BEA) system of
national accounts; to increase
investments in research and
development, strengthen education, and
encourage entrepreneurship; and to
compare business innovation in the
United States to other countries,
including those in the European Union.
Results of the research activities data
collected from nonprofit organizations
will be used to report updated, valid,
and reliable estimates of U.S. nonprofit
R&D in National Patterns of R&D
Resources and BEA’s system of national
accounts.
The data collected by ABS will also
be incorporated into the National
Science Board’s biennial report, Science
and Engineering Indicators (SEI). The
R&D data from the nonprofit module
will be reported in the Organization for
Economic Cooperation and
Development (OECD) periodic
publications and for international
comparisons of R&D efforts. NCSES also
anticipates professional associations
will use data from the nonprofit
module. Likely users in this category
include, but are not limited to, the
Science Philanthropy Alliance, the
Association of Independent Research
Institutes, and the Health Research
Alliance.
Additional examples of data use
include:
• The Small Business Administration
(SBA) and the Minority Business
Development Agency (MBDA) to assess
business assistance needs and allocate
available program resources.
• Local government commissions on
small and disadvantaged businesses to
establish and evaluate contract
procurement practices.
• Federal, state, and local government
agencies as a framework for planning,
directing, and assessing programs that
promote the activities of disadvantaged
groups.
• The National Women’s Business
Council to assess the state of women’s
business ownership for policymakers,
researchers, and the public at large.
• Consultants and researchers to
analyze long-term economic and
demographic shifts, and differences in
ownership and performance among
geographic areas.
• Individual business owners to
analyze their operations in comparison
to similar firms, compute their market
share, and assess their growth and
future prospects.

Firm name
An application has been submitted to
the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board by
the West Virginia Economic
Development Authority, grantee of FTZ
240, requesting authority to reorganize
the zone under the alternative site
framework (ASF) adopted by the FTZ
Board (15 CFR Sec. 400.2(c)). 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 Board (15 CFR part
400). It was formally docketed on
February 4, 2021.
FTZ 240 was approved by the FTZ
Board on February 7, 2000 (Board Order
1071, 65 FR 8119, February 17, 2000).
The current zone includes the following
site: Site 1 (317 acres)—Eastern West
Virginia Regional Airport complex, 170
Aviation Way, Martinsburg.
The grantee’s proposed service area
under the ASF would be Berkley,
Hampshire, Hardy, Jefferson and
Morgan Counties, West Virginia, 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 application indicates
that the proposed service area is within
and adjacent to the Front Royal, Virginia
Customs and Border Protection port of
entry.
The applicant is requesting authority
to reorganize its existing zone to include
the existing site as a ‘‘magnet’’ site. 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 1 be so exempted. No
subzones/usage-driven sites are being
requested at this time.
In accordance with the FTZ Board’s
regulations, Christopher Kemp 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.
Public comment is invited from
interested parties. Submissions shall be
