Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 2134]


Reorganization and Expansion of Foreign-Trade Zone 164 Under 
Alternative Site Framework; Muskogee, Oklahoma

    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, the Muskogee City-County Port Authority, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 164, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ 
Docket B-22-2022, docketed May 31, 2022) for authority to reorganize 
and expand under the ASF with a service area of Muskogee County, 
Oklahoma, adjacent to the Tulsa Customs and Border Protection port of 
entry, FTZ 164's existing Sites 1, 2 and 3 would be categorized as 
magnet sites, and the grantee proposes a subzone (Subzone 164A);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (87 FR 34240, June 6, 2022) 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 and expand FTZ 164 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, to an ASF sunset provision for magnet sites that would 
terminate authority for Sites 2 and 3 if not activated within five 
years from the month of approval, and to an ASF sunset provision for 
subzone/usage-driven sites that would terminate authority for the site 
of Subzone 164A if no foreign-status merchandise is admitted for a bona 
fide customs purpose within three years from the month of approval.

    Dated: October 12, 2022.
Lisa W. Wang,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate 
Chairperson, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
