Framework in Clallam County, Washington
Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June

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

public agency, made application to the Board (B-24-

trade zone under the ASF with a service area of Clallam County,
adjacent to the Port Angeles Customs and Border Protection port of
entry, and proposed Sites 1 and 2 would be categorized as magnet sites;
Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal
Register (89 FR 45820 and 45821, May 24, 2024) and the application was
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
Whereas, the Board adopted the findings and recommendations of the
examiners' report, and found that the requirements of the FTZ Act and
the Board's regulations are satisfied;
Therefore, on January 10, 2025, the Board granted to the Port of
Port Angeles the privilege of establishing a foreign-trade zone,
designated on the records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Zone No. 303,
as described in the application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the
Board's regulations, including section 400.13, to the Board's standard
2,000-acre activation limit, and to an ASF sunset provision for magnet
sites that would terminate authority for Site 2 if not activated within
five years from the month of approval.
