(Docket 2-2007)


Foreign-Trade Zone 181 - Akron/Canton, Ohio, Application for 
Reorganization

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board 
(the Board) by the Northeast Ohio Trade & Economic Consortium (NEOTEC), 
grantee of FTZ 181, requesting authority to reorganize Site 2 in 
Trumbull and Mahoning Counties, Ohio, within the Cleveland Customs port 
of entry. The application was submitted pursuant to the provisions of 
the Foreign-Trade Zones Act (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the regulations of 
the Board (15 CFR Part 400). It was formally filed on January 22, 2007.
    FTZ 181 was approved by the Board on December 23, 1991 (Board Order 
546, 57 FR 41; 1/2/92). On March 13, 1998, the grant of authority was 
reissued to NEOTEC (Board Order 965, 63 FR 13837; 3/23/98). The zone 
was expanded in 1997 (Board Order 902, 62 FR 36044; 7/3/97), 1998 
(Board Order 968, 63 FR 16962; 4/7/98), 1999 (Board Order 1053, 64 FR 
51291; 9/22/99), 2002 (Board Order 1260, 67 FR 71933; 12/3/02), 2004 
(Board Order 1334, 69 FR 30281; 5/27/04), and twice in 2006 (Board 
Orders 1479, 71 FR 59072; 10/6/06 and 1493, 71 FR 71507-71508; 12/11/
06). FTZ 181 currently consists of nine sites in the northeast, Ohio 
area covering Summit, Trumbull, Mahoning, Columbiana, Stark, Richland, 
Ashtabula, Portage, Medina and Wayne Counties.
    The applicant is now requesting authority to reorganize Site 2 by 
deleting 378 acres from the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport in 
Trumbull County and adding 50 acres within the 106-acre Warren Commerce 
Park, located at 655 North River Road, NW, Warren, Trumbull County, and 
200 acres within the 244-acre Allied Industrial Park, located at 2100 
Poland Avenue, Youngstown, Mahoning County, Ohio.
    Leedsworld, Inc, will be the anchor tenant for the Warren Commerce 
Park, which is owned by Mahoning Valley Economic Development 
Corporation and River Road Investments Inc. Allied Industrial Park, 
owned by Allied Consolidated Industries (ACI), will serve ACI's 
headquarters and seven of its umbrella companies.
    No specific manufacturing requests are being made at this time. 
Such requests would be made to the Board on a case-by case basis.
