of zones;
    Whereas, the Greater Miami Foreign-Trade Zone, Inc., grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 32, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ

authority to reorganize under the ASF with a service area that includes 
a portion of Miami-Dade County, Florida, within the Miami Customs and 
Border Protection port of entry, FTZ 32's existing Site 1 would be 
categorized as a magnet site, Site 2 would be removed from the zone, 
and Sites 3 and 4 would be categorized as usage-driven sites;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (77 FR 43048-43049, 7/23/2012) and the application, as 
amended, has been processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's 
regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendation of the
