Foreign-Trade Zone 281--Miami, Florida; Application for
Reorganization (Expansion of Service Area) Under Alternative Site
Framework
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)
Board by Miami-Dade County, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 281,
requesting authority to reorganize the zone to expand its service area
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
FTZ Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally docketed on March 22,
2023.
FTZ 281 was approved by the FTZ Board on August 2, 2012 (Board
Order 1844, 77 FR 47816, August 10, 2012) as an ASF zone. The zone
currently has a
[[Page 18296]]
service area that includes a portion of Miami-Dade County, Florida.
The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the service
area of the zone to include all of Miami-Dade County, as described in
the application. If approved, the grantee would be able to serve sites
throughout the expanded service area based on companies' needs for FTZ
designation. The application indicates that the proposed expanded
service area is within the Miami U.S. Customs and Border Protection
Port of Entry.
In accordance with the FTZ Board's regulations, Christopher Kemp 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
shall be addressed to the FTZ Board's Executive Secretary and sent to:
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#dfb9aba59fabadbebbbaf1b8b0a9"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="1076646a5064627174753e777f66">[email protected]</span></a>. The closing period for their receipt is May 30, 2023.
Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the
foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period
to June 12, 2023.
A copy of the application will be available for public inspection
in the ``Online FTZ Information Section'' section of the FTZ Board's
website, which is accessible via <a href="http://www.trade.gov/ftz">www.trade.gov/ftz</a>. For further
