    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June

(the Board) adopts the following Order:
    Whereas, by an Act of Congress approved June 18, 1934, an Act ``To 
provide 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,'' as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u) (the Act), the 
Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) is authorized to grant to 
qualified corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade

foreign-trade zone at sites in Texas City, Galveston County, Texas, 
within the Houston-Galveston Customs port of entry; and,
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register and the Board has found that the requirements of the 
Act and Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the 
application is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants to the Grantee the 
privilege of establishing a foreign-trade zone, designated on the 
records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Zone No. 199, at the sites
