Foreign-Trade Zone 102--St. Louis, Missouri; Application for
Reorganization (Expansion of Service Area) Under Alternative Site
Framework
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)
Board by the St. Louis County Port Authority, grantee of Foreign-Trade
Zone 102, 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 May 4, 2026.
FTZ 102 was approved by the FTZ Board on April 27, 1984 (Board
Order 251, 49 FR 19540, May 8, 1984) and reorganized under the ASF on
June 22, 2011 (Board Order 1772, 76 FR 38357, June 30, 2011). The zone
currently has a service area that includes the City of St. Louis and
St. Louis County, Missouri.
The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the service
area of the zone to include St. Charles 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 adjacent to the St. Louis Customs and Border Protection
Port of Entry.
In accordance with the FTZ Board's regulations, Camille Evans 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#3f594b457f4b4d5e5b5a11585049"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="1076646a5064627174753e777f66">[email protected]</span></a>. The closing period for their receipt is July 6, 2026.
