Media (USAGM), the USAGM General
Counsel and Acting Board Secretary to
the Board, the Secretariat to the Board,
and recording secretaries will attend the
closed meeting. Certain USAGM staff
members who may be called on to brief
or support the Board also may attend.
The USAGM General Counsel and
Board Secretary has certified that, in his
opinion, exemptions set forth in the
Government in the Sunshine Act, in
particular 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(2), (6), and
(9)(B), permit closure of this meeting.
The entirety of the Board’s
membership approved the closing of
this meeting.
The purpose for closing the meeting is
so that the IBAB may decide on hiring
certain entity heads. The closed meeting
also will focus on discussing the
development of internal rules and
practices to govern Board processes and
functions. This includes developing
processes or rules relating to IBAB,
USAGM, and the USAGM entities.
Publicizing these deliberations would
frustrate the implementation of the very
items they will be proposing. [This
related to (2), (6) and (9).]
In the event that the time, date, or
location of this meeting changes, IBAB
will post an announcement of the
change, along with the new time, date,
and/or place of the meeting on its
website at https://www.ibab.gov.
Although a separate federal entity,
USAGM prepared this notice and will
continue to support the Board in
accordance with 22 U.S.C. 6205(g).

Whereas, the Foreign-Trade Zones

States, to expedite and encourage
foreign commerce, and for other
purposes,’’ and authorizes the Board to
grant to qualified corporations the
privilege of establishing foreign-trade
zones in or adjacent to U.S. Customs
and Border Protection ports of entry;
Whereas, the Board adopted the
alternative site framework (ASF) (15
CFR 400.2(c)) as an option for the
establishment or reorganization of
zones;
Whereas, the World Trade Center
Denver, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone
123, submitted an application to the
Board (FTZ Docket B–16–2024,
docketed April 18, 2024) for authority to

Weld Counties, Colorado, in and
adjacent to the Denver Customs and
Border Protection port of entry, FTZ
123’s existing Sites 3 and 4 would be
categorized as magnet sites, and existing
Site 7 would be categorized as a usagedriven site;
Whereas, notice inviting public
comment was given in the Federal

2024) and the application has been
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and
the Board’s regulations; and,
Whereas, the Board adopts the
findings and recommendations of the

requirements of the FTZ Act and the
Board’s regulations are satisfied;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby
orders:
The application to reorganize FTZ 123

the FTZ Act and the Board’s regulations,
including section 400.13, to the Board’s
standard 2,000-acre activation limit for
the zone, to an ASF sunset provision for
magnet sites that would terminate
authority for Sites 3 and 4 if not
activated within five years from the
month of approval, and to an ASF
