Foreign-Trade Zone 34--Niagara County, New York Application for 
Expansion

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 
(the Board) by the County of Niagara, New York, grantee of FTZ 34, 
requesting authority to expand its general-purpose zone site to include 
an additional parcel in Wheatfield, New York. 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 July 17, 2000.
    FTZ 34 was approved on November 29, 1977 (Board Order 125, 42 FR 
61489, 12/5/77), relocated on January 27, 1983 (Board Order 203, 48 FR 
5771, 2/8/83), and expanded on October 28, 1993 (Board Order 662, 58 FR 
59236, 11/8/93). The zone project currently consists of 183 acres at 
the Niagara Falls International Airport in Niagara County (Town of 
Wheatfield), New York.
    The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the existing 
zone site to include the Vantage International Pointe Industrial Park 
(158 acres) located at 6300 Lockport Road, Wheatfield, adjacent to the 
airport site. The park is owned by the Niagara County Industrial 
Development Agency. No specific manufacturing requests are being made 
at this time. Such 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.
