corporations, and government entities; 

to analyze business operations in 

comparison to similar firms, compute 

market share, and assess business 

growth and future prospects. Estimates 

produced on R&D and innovation may 

be used to compare R&D costs across 

industries, determine where R&D 

activity is conducted geographically, 

and identify the types of businesses 

with R&D; to contribute to the Bureau of 

Economic Analysis (BEA) system of 

national accounts; to increase 

investments in research and 

development, strengthen education, and 

encourage entrepreneurship; and to 

compare business innovation in the 

United States to other countries, 

including those in the European Union. 

Results of the research activities data 

collected from nonprofit organizations 

will be used to report updated, valid, 

and reliable estimates of U.S. nonprofit 

R&D in National Patterns of R&D 

Resources and BEA’s system of national 

accounts. 

The data collected by ABS will also 

be incorporated into the National 

Science Board’s biennial report, Science 

and Engineering Indicators (SEI). The 

R&D data from the nonprofit module 

will be reported in the Organization for 

Economic Cooperation and 

Development (OECD) periodic 

publications and for international 

comparisons of R&D efforts. NCSES also 

anticipates professional associations 

will use data from the nonprofit 

module. Likely users in this category 

include, but are not limited to, the 

Science Philanthropy Alliance, the 

Association of Independent Research 

Institutes, and the Health Research 

Alliance. 

Additional examples of data use 

include: 

• The Small Business Administration 

(SBA) and the Minority Business 

Development Agency (MBDA) to assess 

business assistance needs and allocate 

available program resources. 

• Local government commissions on 

small and disadvantaged businesses to 

establish and evaluate contract 

procurement practices. 

• Federal, state, and local government 

agencies as a framework for planning, 

directing, and assessing programs that 

promote the activities of disadvantaged 

groups. 

• The National Women’s Business 

Council to assess the state of women’s 

business ownership for policymakers, 

researchers, and the public at large. 

• Consultants and researchers to 

analyze long-term economic and 

demographic shifts, and differences in 

ownership and performance among 

geographic areas. 

• Individual business owners to 

analyze their operations in comparison 

to similar firms, compute their market 

share, and assess their growth and 

future prospects.

SUMMARY: The Economic Development 

Administration (EDA) has received 

petitions for certification of eligibility to 

apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance 

from the firms listed below. 

Accordingly, EDA has initiated 

investigations to determine whether 

increased imports into the United States 

of articles like or directly competitive

decrease in sales or production of each 

petitioning firm.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Foreign-Trade Zones Board 

[B–06–2021] 

Foreign-Trade Zone 240—Martinsburg, 

West Virginia; Application for 

Reorganization Under Alternative Site 

Framework 

An application has been submitted to 

the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board by 

the West Virginia Economic 

Development Authority, grantee of FTZ 

240, requesting authority to reorganize 

the zone under the alternative site 

framework (ASF) adopted by the FTZ 

Board (15 CFR Sec. 400.2(c)). The ASF 

is an option for grantees for the 

establishment or reorganization of zones 

and can permit significantly greater 

flexibility in the designation of new 

subzones or ‘‘usage-driven’’ FTZ sites 

for operators/users located within a 

grantee’s ‘‘service area’’ in the context of 

the FTZ Board’s standard 2,000-acre 

activation limit for a zone. The 

application was submitted pursuant to 

the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and the 

regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 

400). It was formally docketed on 

February 4, 2021. 

FTZ 240 was approved by the FTZ 

Board on February 7, 2000 (Board Order 

1071, 65 FR 8119, February 17, 2000). 

The current zone includes the following 

site: Site 1 (317 acres)—Eastern West 

Virginia Regional Airport complex, 170 

Aviation Way, Martinsburg. 

The grantee’s proposed service area 

under the ASF would be Berkley, 

Hampshire, Hardy, Jefferson and 

Morgan Counties, West Virginia, as 

described in the application. If 

approved, the grantee would be able to 

serve sites throughout the service area 

based on companies’ needs for FTZ 

designation. The application indicates 

that the proposed service area is within 

and adjacent to the Front Royal, Virginia 

Customs and Border Protection port of 

entry. 

The applicant is requesting authority 

to reorganize its existing zone to include 

the existing site as a ‘‘magnet’’ site. The 

ASF allows for the possible exemption 

of one magnet site from the ‘‘sunset’’ 

time limits that generally apply to sites 

under the ASF, and the applicant 

proposes that Site 1 be so exempted. No 

subzones/usage-driven sites are being 

requested at this time. 

In accordance with the FTZ Board’s 

regulations, Christopher Kemp of the 

FTZ Staff is designated examiner to 

evaluate and analyze the facts and 

information presented in the application 

and case record and to report findings 

and recommendations to the FTZ Board. 

Public comment is invited from 

interested parties. Submissions shall be 

addressed to the FTZ Board’s Executive 

Secretary and sent to: ftz@trade.gov. The 

closing period for their receipt is April 

12, 2021. Rebuttal comments in 

response to material submitted during 

the foregoing period may be submitted 

during the subsequent 15-day period to 

April 26, 2021. 

A copy of the application will be 

available for public inspection in the 

‘‘Reading Room’’ section of the FTZ 

Board’s website, which is accessible via 

www.trade.gov/ftz. For further 

information, contact Christopher Kemp 

at Christopher.Kemp@trade.gov.
