Application and Public Hearing

An application has been submitted to

the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Board

(the Board) by the North Central

Pennsylvania Regional Planning and

Development Commission (a

Pennsylvania not-for-profit corporation),

to establish a general-purpose foreigntrade zone in Washington Township,

Jefferson County, Pennsylvania,

adjacent to the Pittsburgh Customs port

of entry. The application was submitted

pursuant to the provisions of the FTZ

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

27, 2001. The applicant is authorized to

make the proposal under Pennsylvania

Consolidated Statute, Title 66, Chapter

31 of Act 116 of 1978.

The proposed zone would be the

County Airport complex, Route 830,

McKean and Potter). The proposed zone

site is owned by the Clearfield-Jefferson

Counties Regional Airport Authority

and is also part of the Keystone
