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 June 20, 2001.

The zone project currently consists of the following sites:                     *Site 1*                    (2,400 acres)—within the 18,000-acre Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport complex;                     *Site 2*                     (754 acres)—Southport Centre Industrial Park, South Dallas;                     *Site 3*                    (552 acres)—within the 1,100-acre Grayson County Airport complex, Grayson County; and,                     *Site 4*                    (644 acres, 3 parcels)—Railhead Fort Worth site, intersection of Loop 820 (the Jim Wright Freeway) and Blue Mound Road (FM 156), Fort Worth.                

                    The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the general-purpose zone to include two new sites (832 acres) in the Dallas/Forth Worth area (Proposed Sites 5 and 6):                     *Proposed Site 5*                    (280 acres)—within the 745-acre Meacham Airport complex, intersection of Loop 820 and Interstate 35, Fort Worth; and,                     *Proposed Site 6*                     (552 acres)—within the 1,060-acre Redbird Airport complex, intersection of Loop 12 and Interstate 35, Dallas.
