[Order No. 1977]


Grant of Authority; Establishment of a Foreign-Trade Zone Under 
the Alternative Site Framework Limon, Colorado

    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 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 Foreign-Trade Zones 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 Sec. 400.2(c)) as an option for the establishment or reorganization 
of zones;
    Whereas, the Town of Limon, Colorado (the Grantee), a public 
organization, has made application to the Board (B-54-2014, docketed 
08/07/2014; amended 03/11/2015), requesting the establishment of a 
foreign-trade zone under the ASF with a service area of Adams and 
Arapahoe Counties, Colorado and portions of Elbert, Lincoln and Morgan 
Counties, Colorado, as described in the amended application, within and 
adjacent to the Denver, Colorado U.S. Customs and Border Protection 
port of entry, and proposed Sites 1 and 2 would be categorized as 
magnet sites;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (79 FR 47088, 08/12/2014) 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 grants to the Grantee the 
privilege of establishing a foreign-trade zone, designated on the 
records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Zone No. 293, as described in the 
amended application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's 
regulations, including Section 400.13, to the Board's standard 2,000-
acre activation limit, and to an ASF sunset provision for magnet sites 
that would terminate authority for Site 2 if not activated within eight 
years from the month of approval.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 11th day of June 2015.
Penny Pritzker,
Secretary of Commerce, Chairman and Executive Officer, Foreign-Trade 
Zones Board.
