Board by the Bridgeport Port Authority, grantee of FTZ 76, 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 March 19, 2021.
    FTZ 76 was approved by the FTZ Board on March 26, 1982 (Board Order 
186, 47 FR 14932, April 7, 1982) and expanded on November 9, 1994 
(Board Order 713, 59 FR 59992, November 21, 1994).

Wilton, Newtown and Bethel; Subzone 76B for MannKind Corporation 
consisting of two sites in Danbury; and, Subzone 76C for SDI USA, LLC 
consisting of one site in Meriden.
    The grantee's proposed service area under the ASF would include 
Fairfield and Litchfield Counties as well as a portion of New Haven 
County, 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 Bridgeport, Connecticut 
Customs and Border Protection port of entry.
    The applicant is requesting authority to reorganize its existing 
zone to include existing Site 5 as a ``magnet'' site and reduce the 
size of the site to 18.3 acres. The applicant is also requesting that 
existing Subzone 76A become a subzone under the ASF. The application 
would have no impact on FTZ 76's other subzones.
    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
