Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 2124]


Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 218 Under Alternative Site 
Framework; St. Lucie County, 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 Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Act provides for ``. . . the 
establishment . . . of foreign-trade zones in ports of entry of the 
United States, to expedite and encourage foreign commerce, and for 
other purposes,'' and authorizes the Board to grant to qualified 
corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade zones in or 
adjacent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection ports of entry;
    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, St. Lucie County, Florida, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 
218,

submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-64-2021, docketed 
September 17, 2021) for authority to reorganize under the ASF with a 
service area of St. Lucie, Indian River and Okeechobee Counties, 
Florida, in and adjacent to the Fort Pierce U.S. Customs and Border 
Protection Customs Station, and FTZ 218's existing Sites 1, 2, 3 and 4 
would be categorized as magnet sites;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (86 FR 52875-52876, September 23, 2021) 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 
examiners' 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 218 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 
zone, and to an ASF sunset provision for magnet sites that would 
terminate authority for Sites 2, 3 and 4 if not activated within five 
years from the month of approval.

    Dated: February 22, 2022.

Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate
