DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 2115]
Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 114 Under Alternative Site
Framework Peoria, Illinois
Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade
Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:
Whereas, the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Act provides for ``. . . the
establishment . . . of foreign-trade zones in ports of entry of the
United 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 Economic Development Council, Inc., grantee of
Foreign-Trade Zone 114, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ
Docket B-1-2021, docketed January 8, 2021) for authority to reorganize
under the ASF with a service area of Peoria, Cass, Champaign, Dewitt,
Ford, Fulton, Knox, Livingston, Logan, Macon, Marshall, Mason,
McDonough, McLean, Menard, Piatt, Putnam, Sangamon, Schuyler, Stark,
Tazewell, Woodford Counties and portions of Bureau and LaSalle
Counties, Illinois, in and adjacent to the Peoria Customs and Border
Protection port of entry, FTZ 114's existing Sites 7 and 8 would be
categorized as magnet sites, existing Site 9 would be removed from the
zone, existing Sites 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 would be categorized as usage-
driven sites, and the grantee proposes an initial ASF Subzone with
three sites (Subzone 114H);
Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal
Register 86 FR 3117, January 14, 2021) 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
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and
the Board's regulations are satisfied;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
The application to reorganize FTZ 114 under the ASF is approved,
subject to 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 7 and 8 if not activated within five years from the
month of approval, and to an ASF sunset provision for subzone/usage-
driven sites that would terminate authority for Sites 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6
as well as Sites 1-3 of Subzone 114H if no foreign-status merchandise
is admitted for a bona fide customs purpose within three years from the
month of approval.
Dated: July 26, 2021.
Christian B. Marsh,
Acting Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
