Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June

[[Page 55780]]
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 Foreign-Trade Zones 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 Tyler Economic Development Council (the Grantee), a
non-profit corporation, has made application to the Board (B-69-2021,
docketed October 28, 2021) requesting the establishment of a foreign-
trade zone under the ASF with a service area that encompasses a portion
of Smith County, Texas, adjacent to the Shreveport-Bossier City Customs
and Border Protection port of entry;
Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the
Federal Register (86 FR 60791-60792, November 4, 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 grants to the Grantee the
privilege of establishing a foreign-trade zone, designated on the
records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Zone No. 299, as described in the
application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations,
including Section 400.13, and to the Board's standard 2,000-acre
activation limit.
