[Order No. 1008]


Grant of Authority; Establishment of a Foreign-Trade Zone, 
Lakewood, New Jersey

    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 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 ports of entry;
    Whereas, the Township of Lakewood, New Jersey (the Grantee), has 
made application to the Board (FTZ Docket 81-97, filed 12/8/97), 
requesting the establishment of a foreign-trade zone at sites in 
Lakewood, New Jersey, adjacent to the Philadelphia Consolidated Customs 
port of entry;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (62 FR 65655, 12/15/97); and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report and finds that the requirements of the Act and the 
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. 235, at the sites 
described in the application, subject to the Act and the Board's 
regulations, including Section 400.28, and subject to the standard 
2,000-acre activation limit.
