[Order No. 2050]


Reorganization of Foreign-Trade Zone 30 Under Alternative Site 
Framework; Salt Lake City, Utah

    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 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 Salt Lake City Corporation, grantee of Foreign-Trade 
Zone 30, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ Docket B-72-2017, 
docketed November 16, 2017) for authority to reorganize under the ASF 
with a service area of Davis, Morgan, Salt Lake, Utah and Weber 
Counties, Utah and the cities of Brigham City, Corinne, Honeyville, 
Perry, Erda, Grantsville, Lake Point, Mills Junction, Rush Valley, 
Stansbury Park, Stockton, Terra, Tooele, Vernon, Heber City, Midway, 
Coalville, Deer Mountain, Echo, Francis, Henefer, Kamas, Kimball 
Junction, Oakley, Park City, Peoa, Samak, Silver Summit, Snyderville, 
Wanship, Woodland and Mantua, Utah, in and adjacent to the Salt Lake 
City U.S. Customs and Border Protection port of entry, and FTZ 30's 
existing Site 2 would be categorized as a magnet site;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (82 FR 55557, November 22, 2017) 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 30 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, and to an ASF sunset provision for magnet sites that would 
terminate authority for Site 2 if not activated within five years from 
the month of approval.
