Foreign-Trade Zone 46--Cincinnati, Ohio Area Application for 
Relocation/Expansion

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 
(the Board) by the Greater Cincinnati Foreign Trade Zone, Inc., grantee 
of FTZ 46, requesting authority to relocate and expand its zone in the 
Cincinnati, Ohio, area. The application was submitted pursuant to the 
provisions of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-
81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was 
formally filed on January 6, 1994.
    FTZ 46 was approved on January 12, 1979 (Board Order 141, 44 FR 
4003, 1/19/79), authorizing a general-purpose foreign-trade zone in 
Butler County, Ohio. The zone currently involves a site (17 acres) 
located at 2940 Highland Drive, Cincinnati.
    The applicant is now requesting authority to relocate the zone to a 
larger site (35 acres) located at 175 Progress Place in the City of 
Springdale, Hamilton County, Ohio, 17 miles north of downtown 
Cincinnati. The site contains a warehouse facility (1.1 million sq. 
ft.) owned by Avon Products, Inc. (Avon). Avon is presently using 
800,000 sq. ft. of the facility for manufacturing and warehouse/
distribution functions. The remaining 300,000 square feet is being 
developed as a warehouse/office-park type facility.
    Specific manufacturing approvals are not being sought at this time. 
Requests would be made to the Board on a case-by-case basis.
    In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ 
Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and 
report to the Board.
    Public comment on the application is invited from interested 
parties. Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the 
Board's Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period of 
their receipt is on March 14, 1994. Rebuttal comments in response to
