Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 1904]


Reorganization/Expansion of Foreign-Trade Zone 104; (Expansion of 
Service Area and Expansion of Zone); Under Alternative Site Framework, 
Savannah, Georgia

    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) (15 
CFR 400.2(c)) as an option for the establishment or reorganization of 
zones;
    Whereas, the World Trade Center Savannah, LLC, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 104, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-50-
2012, docketed 07-17-2012) for authority to expand the service area of 
the zone to include Richmond and Columbia Counties, Georgia, as 
described in the application, adjacent to the Columbia, South Carolina 
Customs and Border Protection port of entry; and the grantee proposes 
three usage-driven sites (Sites 18, 19 and 20);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (77 FR 43047, 07/23/12) and the application has been processed 
pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations are satisfied;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application to reorganize FTZ 104 to expand the service area 
and the zone under the ASF is approved, subject to the FTZ Act and the 
Board's regulations, including Section 400.13, and to the Board's 
standard 2,000-acre activation limit for the zone, and to a three-year 
ASF sunset provision for usage-driven sites that would terminate 
authority for Sites 18, 19 and 20 if no foreign-status merchandise is 
admitted for a bona fide purpose by June 30, 2016.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of June 2013.
Paul Piquado,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Import Administration, Alternate 
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
