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 June 10, 2003.
    FTZ 151 was approved on July 6, 1988 (Board Order 389, 53 FR 27058,

sites (921 acres) in Findlay (Hancock County): Site 1 (820 acres)--Tall

Township Road 99 East and a warehouse facility located on County Road

include an additional site: Proposed Site 3 (373 acres) within the 398-

this time. Such requests would be made to the Board on a case-by-case
