Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 72 Under Alternative Site 
Framework; Indianapolis, IN

    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 Board adopted the alternative site framework (ASF) (74 
FR 1170, 01/12/09; correction 74 FR 3987, 01/22/09; 75 FR 71069-71070, 
11/22/10) as an option for the establishment or reorganization of 
general-purpose zones;
    Whereas, the Indianapolis Airport Authority, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 72, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket 50-
2010, filed 8/17/2010) for authority to reorganize under the ASF with a 
service area of Bartholomew, Benton, Boone, Carroll, Cass, Clay, 
Clinton, Decatur, Delaware, Fayette, Fountain, Franklin, Grant, Greene, 
Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Henry, Howard, Jennings, Johnson, 
Lawrence, Madison, Marion, Miami, Monroe, Montgomery, Morgan, Owen, 
Parke, Putnam, Rush, Shelby, Tippecanoe, Tipton, Vigo, Warren, Wayne 
and White Counties, Indiana, adjacent to the Indianapolis Customs and 
Border Protection port of entry, FTZ 72's existing Sites 1-3 and 12-13 
would be categorized as magnet sites, existing Sites 9-11 would be

proposes three additional magnet sites (Sites 6-8);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (75 FR 51752-51753, 8/23/2010) and the application has been 
processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendation of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
Board's regulations are satisfied, and that the proposal is in the 
public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application to reorganize FTZ 72 under the alternative site 
framework is approved, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's 
regulations, including Section 400.28, to the Board's standard 2,000-
acre activation limit for the overall general-purpose zone project, to 
a five-year ASF sunset provision for magnet sites that would terminate 
authority for Sites 2-3, 6-8 and 12-13 if not activated by March 31, 
2016, and to a three-year ASF sunset provision for usage-driven sites 
that would terminate authority for Sites 9-11 if no foreign-status 
merchandise is admitted for a bona fide customs purpose by March 31, 
2014.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 3rd day of March, 2011.
