Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[S-89-2023]


Foreign-Trade Zone 244; Subzone 244A Application for Expansion; 
Skechers USA, Inc.; Banning, California

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) 
Board by the March Joint Powers Authority, grantee of FTZ 244, 
requesting an expansion of Subzone 244A on behalf of Skechers USA, 
Inc., in Banning, California. The application was submitted pursuant to 
the provisions of the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 
81a-81u), and the regulations of the FTZ Board (15 CFR part 400). It 
was formally docketed on May 16, 2023.
    Subzone 244A was approved by the FTZ Board on December 20, 2010 
(Board Order 1734, 76 FR 87, January 3, 2011) and was converted to a 
subzone under the alternative site framework (ASF) on July 9, 2018 (S-
99-2018). Subzone 244A currently consists of the following sites in 
Riverisde County: Site 1 (120.5 acres)--29800 Eucalyptus Avenue, Moreno 
Valley; Site 2 (16 acres)--22705 Newehope Drive, Moreno Valley; and 
Site 3 (29.09 acres)--3350 Redlands Avenue, Perris.
    The applicant is now requesting to expand Subzone 244A to include 
an additional site: Site 4 (63.9 acres)--2600 East John Street, 
Banning, Riverside County. Because the site of the proposed expanded 
subzone is outside FTZ 244's ASF service area, authorization of the 
expanded subzone would not be under the ASF. The expanded subzone would

be subject to the existing activation limit of FTZ 244. No authority 
for production activity has been requested at this time.
    In accordance with the FTZ Board's regulations, Qahira El-Amin of 
the FTZ Staff is designated examiner to review the application and make 
recommendations to the Executive Secretary.
    Public comment is invited from interested parties. Submissions 
shall be addressed to the FTZ Board's Executive Secretary and sent to: 
[email protected]. The closing period for their receipt is July 3, 2023. 
Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the 
foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period 
to July 17, 2023.
    A copy of the application will be available for public inspection 
in the ``Online FTZ Information Section'' section of the FTZ Board's 
website, which is accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz.
    For further information, contact Qahira El-Amin at [email protected].

    Dated: May 17, 2023.
Elizabeth Whiteman,
Executive Secretary.
