Orleans L.L.C., St. Charles Parish, Louisiana

    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 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's regulations (15 CFR part 400) provide for the 
establishment of subzones for specific uses;
    Whereas, the Port of South Louisiana, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 
124, has made application to the Board for an expansion of Subzone 124A 
on behalf of Valero Refining-New Orleans L.L.C. to include a site 
located in St. Rose, Louisiana (FTZ Docket B-53-2023, docketed October 
5, 2023);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (88 FR 70640, October 12, 2023) 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' memorandum, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act 
and the Board's regulations are satisfied;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby approves the expansion of Subzone 
124A on behalf of Valero Refining-New Orleans L.L.C., located in St. 
Rose, Louisiana, as described in the application and Federal Register 
notice, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including
