[Order No. 1917]


Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 65 Under Alternative Site 
Framework, Panama City, Florida

    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 Panama City Port Authority, grantee of Foreign-Trade 
Zone 65, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-63-2013, 
docketed June 18, 2013) for authority to reorganize under the ASF with 
a service area of Bay and Washington Counties, adjacent to the Panama 
City Customs and Border Protection port of entry, to reinstate acreage 
at Site 3, to remove acreage from Site 4, and to categorize FTZ 65's 
existing Sites 1, 2, 3 (as modified), 4 (as modified) and 5 as magnet 
sites;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (78 FR 37784-37785, June 24, 2013) 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 65 under the ASF is approved, 
subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations, including Section 
400.13, to the Board's standard 2,000-acre activation limit for the 
overall zone, and to a five-year ASF sunset provision for magnet sites 
that would terminate authority for Sites 2, 3, 4 and 5 if not activated 
by September 30, 2018.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 17th day of September, 2013.
Paul Piquado,

Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
