    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 
(the Board) by the Yuma County Airport Authority, Inc., grantee of FTZ

the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on July 20, 2000.
    FTZ 219 was approved by the Board on April 2, 1997 (Board Order

zone site to include an additional parcel (46 acres) adjacent to the 
existing site at the Yuma International Airport located at 2191 East 
32nd Street, Yuma County, Arizona. The parcel is owned by the Yuma 
County Airport Authority, Inc. No specific manufacturing requests are 
being made at this time. Such requests would be made to the Board on a 
case-by-case basis.
