                    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board (the Board) by the Regional Industrial Development Corporation of Southwestern Pennsylvania, grantee of FTZ 33, requesting authority to reorganize and expand its zone in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, area, adjacent to the Pittsburgh CBP port of entry. 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 April 7, 2009.                          ( print page 17454)    

FTZ 33 was approved on November 9, 1977 (Board Order 124, 42 FR 59398, 11/17/77). The zone was expanded on March 16, 1981 (Board Order 172, 46 FR 18063, 3/23/81) and on May 14, 1998 (Board Order 981, 63 FR 29179, 5/28/98).

                    The general-purpose zone currently consists of 5 sites (5,616 acres) in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, area:                     *Site 1*                     (49 acres)—within the 500-acre RIDC Park West, Park West Drive, Findlay Township, Allegheny County;                     *Site 2*                     (5,352 acres)—within the 10,000-acre Pittsburgh International Airport complex (includes an aviation fuel depot), Pittsburgh;                     *Site 3*                     (140 acres)—Leetsdale Industrial Park, First and Center Avenues, Leetsdale;                     *Site 4*                     (60 acres, 3 parcels) located at 115 & 400 Hunt Valley Road within the Westmoreland Business and Research Park in Upper Burrell and Washington Townships, Westmoreland County; and,                     *Site 5*                     (15 acres) warehouse facilities located at 154 Keystone Drive, New Castle.                

                    The applicant is now requesting authority to reorganize and expand its zone, which includes both additions and deletions with an overall increase of 1,576 acres in total zone space as described below:                     *Site 1*                     (                    *RIDC Park West*)—modify existing Site 1 by removing 21 acres due to changed circumstances and expand to include an additional 27 acres, 7 parcels (new site total—55 acres).
