Foreign-Trade Zone 164--Muskogee, Oklahoma; Application for
Reorganization and Expansion Under Alternative Site Framework
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)
Board by the Muskogee City-County Port Authority, grantee of FTZ 164,
requesting authority to reorganize and expand the zone under the
alternative site framework (ASF) adopted by the FTZ Board (15 CFR
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 May 31, 2022.
FTZ 164 was approved by the FTZ Board on November 17, 1989 (Board
Order 450, 54 FR 49321, November 30, 1989) and expanded on February 12,
2007 (Board Order 1500, 72 FR 8966-8967, February 28, 2007).
The current zone includes the following sites: Site 1 (48.19 acres
total)--Port of Muskogee located at Port and Industrial Park Service
Road and Port Access Road (14.6 acres), at 2631 Port Place Road (5.92
acres) and at North 43rd Street East and Don Cayo Road (27.67 acres) in
Muskogee; Site 2 (47.47 acres)--Port of Muskogee/John T. Griffin
Industrial Park (Lot 2) located on Dal-Tile Road near State Highway 165
and U.S. Highway 64 in Muskogee; and, Site 3 (22.83 acres total)--Komar
Distribution Center facilities located at 400 West Chickasaw (7.63
acres) and at 10 V. Hubert Smith Drive (15.2 acres) in McAlester.
The grantee's proposed service area under the ASF would be Muskogee
County, Oklahoma, 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 adjacent to the Tulsa Customs and Border
Protection port of entry.
The applicant is requesting authority to reorganize its existing
zone to include all of the existing sites as ``magnet'' sites. 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. The applicant is
also requesting approval of the following subzone: Proposed Subzone
164A--Vallourec Star, LP, 3800 Port Place, Muskogee, Muskogee County
(102 acres).
In accordance with the FTZ Board's regulations, Camille Evans 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
