Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 257 Under Alternative Site 
Framework; Imperial County, California

    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, Imperial County, California, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 
257, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-81-2015, 
docketed December 3, 2015) for authority to reorganize under the ASF 
with a service area of Imperial County, California, in and adjacent to 
the Calexico, California, U.S. Customs and Border Protection port of 
entry, and FTZ 257's existing Sites 1-5 and 7-14 would be categorized 
as magnet sites and existing Sites 6, 15 and 16 would be categorized as 
usage-driven sites;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (80 FR 76443-76444, December 9, 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 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 FTZ 257 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 1-5 and 7-14 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 and 16 if 
no foreign-status merchandise is admitted for a bona fide customs 
purpose within three years from the month of approval.

    Dated: March 1, 2017.

Acting Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Enforcement and Compliance, 
Alternate Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
