Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Order No. 2000]


Reorganization and Expansion of Foreign-Trade Zone 21 Under 
Alternative Site Framework; Charleston, South Carolina

    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 Sec. 400.2(c)) as an option for the establishment or reorganization 
of zones;
    Whereas, the South Carolina State Ports Authority, grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 21, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ 
Docket B-14-2015, docketed February 25, 2015) for authority to 
reorganize and expand under the ASF with a service area of the Counties 
of Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, Orangeburg, Williamsburg, 
Georgetown, Horry (portion), Florence (portion), Marion (portion), 
Colleton, Jasper, Hampton and Beaufort, in and adjacent to the 
Charleston (South Carolina), Georgetown (South Carolina) and Savannah 
(Georgia) Customs and Border Protection ports of entry, FTZ 21's 
existing Sites 5 (as modified), 9, 16 and 18 would be categorized as 
magnet sites, and the grantee proposes seven initial usage-driven sites 
(Sites 6, 15, 26, 28, 30, 31 and 32);
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (80 FR 11632-11633, March 4, 2015) and the application has 
been processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; 
and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendation of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations are satisfied if approval of the service area 
is limited to the Counties of Charleston, Berkeley, Dorchester, 
Orangeburg, Williamsburg, Georgetown, Colleton, Jasper, Hampton and 
Beaufort;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application to reorganize and expand FTZ 21 under the ASF is 
approved with a service area of the Counties of Charleston, Berkeley, 
Dorchester, Orangeburg, Williamsburg, Georgetown, Colleton, Jasper, 
Hampton and Beaufort, 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 9, 16 and 18 if 
not activated within five years from the month of approval, and to an 
ASF sunset provision for usage-driven sites that would terminate 
authority for Sites 6, 15, 26, 28, 30, 31 and 32 if no foreign-status 
merchandise is admitted for a bona fide customs purpose within three 
years from the month of approval.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 2nd day of June 2016.
Paul Piquado, Andrew McGilvray,
Executive Secretary.
