DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
[Order No. 2128]
Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 221 Under Alternative Site
Framework, Mesa, Arizona
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 City of Mesa, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 221,
submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-10-2022, docketed
March 28, 2022) for authority to reorganize under the ASF with a
service area of the City of Mesa, Arizona, adjacent to the Phoenix
Customs and Border Protection port of entry, and FTZ 221's existing
Site 1 would be categorized as a magnet site;
Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal
Register (87 FR 19475, April 4, 2022) 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 221 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.
Dated: July 15, 2022.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate
Chairperson, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
