Foreign-Trade Zone 25--Broward County, Florida; Application for 
Reorganization and Expansion Under Alternative Site Framework

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) 
Board by the County of Broward, Florida, grantee of FTZ 25, requesting 
authority to reorganize and expand the zone under the alternative site 
framework (ASF) adopted by the FTZ Board (15 CFR 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 May 30, 2018.
    FTZ 25 was approved by the FTZ Board on December 27, 1976 (Board 
Order 113, 42 FR 61, January 3, 1977) and expanded on August 11, 1978 
(Board Order 132, 43 FR 36989, August 21, 1978); on October 10, 1991 
(Board Order 537, 56 FR 52510, October 21, 1991); on March 18, 2005 
(Board Order 1382, 70 FR 15836, March 29, 2005); and, on August 27, 
2009 (Board Order 1645, 74 FR 46571, September 10, 2009).
    The current zone includes the following sites: Site 1 (88.8 
acres)--Port Everglades, 3400/3401 McIntosh Road, Hollywood; Site 2 
(14.26 acres)--Westport Business Park, 2501/2525/2555/2600 Davie Road, 
Davie; Site 3 (90.957 acres)--Miramar Park of Commerce, 9786/9850/9900/
10044 Premier Parkway, 2700/2701 Executive Way, 10301-10431 N Commerce 
Parkway, 10101-10151 Business Drive, 11220-11330 & 11340-11660 
Interchange Circle North, and 11219-11331 & 11341-11661 Interchange 
Circle South in Miramar; Site 4 (18 acres)--2696 NW 31st Avenue, 
Lauderdale Lakes; Site 5 (37.165 acres)--2650 SW 14th Avenue, Miramar; 
Site 6 (26 acres)--3200 West Oakland Park Boulevard, Lauderdale Lakes; 
Site 7 (1 acre)--35 SW 12th Avenue, Dania Beach; Site 8 (9 acres)--
2200-2300 SW 45th St., Dania Beach; Site 9 (6 acres)--375 NW 9th 
Avenue, Dania Beach; Site 10 (13 acres)--3435-3699 NW 19th St., 
Lauderdale Lakes; Site 11 (52 acres)--1141 South Andrews Ave., Pompano 
Beach; Site 13 (7.825 acres)--Oakland Park Station, 1201 NE 38th 
Street, Oakland Park; Site 14 (10 acres)--1800 SW 34th Street, Fort 
Lauderdale; Site 15 (.967 acres)--2780 South Park Road, Pembroke Park; 
Site 16 (.14 acres)--1241 Stirling Road, Units 110, 111, 116 and 117, 
Dania Beach; Site 17 (5 acres)--3205 SE 19th Avenue, Fort Lauderdale; 
Site 18 (3.5 acres)--1601 Green Road, Deerfield Beach; Site 19 (2.75 
acres)--1900 SW 43rd Terrace, Deerfield Beach; and, Site 20 (3.156 
acres)--1802 SW 2nd Street, Pompano Beach.
    The grantee's proposed service area under the ASF would be Broward 
County, Florida, 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 Port Everglades 
Customs and Border Protection port of entry.
    The applicant is requesting authority to reorganize its existing 
zone to include all of the existing sites as ``magnet'' sites. The 
applicant is also requesting to expand Site 1 from 88.8 acres to 132 
acres. 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 (as modified) be so 
exempted. The application would have no impact on FTZ 25's previously 
authorized subzones.
    In accordance with the FTZ Board's regulations, Qahira El-Amin 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 at the 
address below. The closing period for their receipt is August 6, 2018. 
Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted during the 
foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-day period 
to August 20, 2018.
    A copy of the application will be available for public inspection 
at the Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade Zones Board, 
Room 21013, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution Avenue NW, 
Washington, DC 20230-0002, and in the ``Reading Room'' section of the 
FTZ Board's website, which is accessible via www.trade.gov/ftz. For
