DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 2120]
Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 83 Under Alternative Site
Framework, Huntsville, Alabama
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 Sec. 400.2(c)) as an option for the establishment or reorganization
of zones;
Whereas, the Huntsville-Madison County Airport Authority, grantee
of Foreign-Trade Zone 83, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ
Docket B-49-2021, docketed June 29, 2021) for authority to reorganize
under the ASF with a service area of Cherokee, Colbert, Cullman,
DeKalb, Franklin, Jackson, Lauderdale, Lawrence, Limestone, Madison,
Marshall, Marion, Morgan and Winston Counties, Alabama, in and adjacent
to the Huntsville U.S. Customs and Border Protection port of entry, and
FTZ 83's existing Sites 1 and 2 would be categorized as magnet sites;
Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal
Register (86 FR 35473, July 6, 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
examiners' 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 83 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, and to an ASF sunset provision for magnet sites that would
terminate authority for Site 2 if not activated within five years from
the month of approval.
Dated: November 10, 2021.
Ryan Majerus,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy and Negotiations, performing the
non-exclusive functions and duties of the Assistant Secretary for
Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones
Board.
