DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Foreign-Trade Zones Board

[Docket 37–98]

Foreign-Trade Zone 202, Los Angeles,

CA; Proposed Foreign-Trade Subzone,

Tosco Refining Company (Oil Refinery

Complex); Los Angeles, CA Area

An application has been submitted to

the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the

Board) by the Los Angeles Board of

Harbor Commissioners, grantee of FTZ

202, requesting special-purpose subzone

status for the oil refinery complex of

Tosco Refining Company, located in the

Los Angeles, California, area. The

application was submitted pursuant to

the provisions of 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 filed

on July 8, 1998.

The refinery complex (727 acres) is

located at 4 sites in the Los Angeles,

area (Los Angeles County), California:

Site 1 (118,750 BPD capacity, 425

acres)—main refinery complex, located

at 1660 West Anaheim Street, some 25

miles south of downtown Los Angeles;

Site 2 (96 tanks, 3.3 mil. barrel capacity,

235 acres)—storage facility used for

crude oil and intermediate feedstocks,

located at 1520 East Sepulveda Blvd., 5

miles northeast of the refinery; Site 3 (26

tanks, 840,000 barrel capacity, 17

acres)—located within FTZ 202, Site 1,

Los Angeles Harbor Marine Terminal at

Berths 148, 149, 150, 151, 1 mile

southeast of the refinery; Site 4 (24

tanks, 2.1 million barrel capacity, 50

acres)—Torrance Tank Farm used for

crude oil and finished product storage,

located at 2650 West Lomita Blvd.,

approx. 4 miles northwest of the

refinery.

The refinery (575 employees) is used

to produce fuels and petrochemical

feedstocks. Fuel products include

gasoline, jet fuel, distillates, residual

fuels, naphthas and motor fuel

blendstocks. Petrochemical feedstocks

and refinery by-products include

methane, ethane, propane, propylene,

butane, petroleum coke and sulfur.

Some 10 percent of the crude oil (92

percent of inputs) and some motor fuel

blendstocks are sourced abroad.

Zone procedures would exempt the

refinery from Customs duty payments

on the foreign products used in its

exports. On domestic sales, the

company would be able to choose the

Customs duty rates that apply to certain

petrochemical feedstocks and refinery

by-products (duty-free) by admitting

incoming foreign crude oil and natural

gas condensate in non-privileged foreign

status. The duty rates on inputs range

from 5.25¢/barrel to 10.5¢/barrel. The

application indicates that the savings

from zone procedures would help

improve the refinery’s international

competitiveness.

In accordance with the Board’s

regulations, a member of the FTZ Staff

has been designated examiner to

investigate the application and report to

the Board.

Public comment is invited from

interested parties. Submissions (original

and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the

Board’s Executive Secretary at the

address below. The closing period for

their receipt is September 14, 1998.

Rebuttal comments in response to

material submitted during the foregoing

period may be submitted during the

subsequent 15-day period to September

29, 1998.

A copy of the application and

accompanying exhibits will be available

for public inspection at each of the

following locations:

U.S. Department of Commerce, Export

Assistance Center, 11000 Wilshire

Blvd., Room 9200, Los Angeles,
