[T.D. 96–4]

Name Change for Consolidated Port of

Philadelphia

AGENCY: Customs Service, Treasury.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This document amends the

Customs Regulations to change the

name of the Consolidated Port of

Philadelphia to the Consolidated Port of

the Delaware River and Bay, and to

identify the participating ports within

the consolidated port. This change is

being made to more clearly reflect that

the port encompasses Wilmington,

Delaware and other cities and territory

as well as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 29, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A.

Donald Gilman, Office of Congressional

and Public Affairs, (202) 927–1169.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Section 101.3, Customs Regulations

(19 CFR 101.3), lists as one of Customs

ports of entry Philadelphia-Chester, Pa.

and Wilmington, De. This port includes

the named cities and includes Camden,

Gloucester City and Salem, New Jersey

and territory described in T. D. 84–195.

The port of entry is popularly known as

the Consolidated Port of Philadelphia.

After a meeting with trade community

representatives from both Wilmington,

Delaware and Philadelphia,

Pennsylvania, Customs proposed in a

document published in the Federal

Register (60 FR 47505) on September

13, 1995, that the name of the

consolidated port should be changed to

the Consolidated Port of the Delaware

River and Bay. The name change would

reflect that the port encompasses

Wilmington, Delaware and other cities

and territory as well as Philadelphia,

Pennsylvania. As noted in the proposal,

the Wilmington, Delaware trade

community strongly favors such a name

change, and the Philadelphia trade

community has not expressed any

objection to that suggestion.

Comments Received

A total of seven entities responded to

the proposal. All seven were in favor of

the name change.

Conclusion

After review of the comments and

further consideration, Customs has

determined to proceed with changing

the name of the port.

Accordingly, Customs is amending

section 101.3, Customs Regulations (19

CFR 101.3) to change the name of the

port of Philadelphia-Chester, Pa. and

Wilmington, De., popularly known as

the Consolidated Port of Philadelphia,

to the Consolidated Port of the Delaware

River and Bay, and to identify the

participating ports within the

consolidated port.

Customs Service Field Organization—

Sioux Falls, SD

AGENCY: Customs Service, Treasury.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: This document amends the

Customs Regulations pertaining to the

field organization of Customs by

establishing Sioux Falls, South Dakota,

as a port of entry. The change is made

as part of Customs continuing efforts to

obtain more efficient use of its

personnel, facilities, and resources and

to provide better service to carriers,

importers, and the general public.

EFFECTIVE DATE: January 29, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bob

Jones, Office of Field Operations (202–

927–0456).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

As part of its continuing efforts to

obtain more efficient use of its

personnel, facilities, and resources and

to provide better service to carriers,

importers, and the general public,

Customs published a document in the

Federal Register (60 FR 52347) on

October 6, 1995, proposing to amend

§ 101.3 of the Customs Regulations (19

CFR 101.3) by establishing a port of

entry at Sioux Falls, South Dakota

encompassing the counties of

Minnehaha and Lincoln in the State of

South Dakota.

As the proposal stated, South Dakota

presently does not have a port of entry

and the Governor of the State of South

Dakota requested the establishment of

the port of entry in the state. In support

of the establishment of the port at Sioux

Falls, it was stated to Customs that the

port would yield significant immediate

and future economic benefits for the

State of South Dakota, including the

retention and expansion of jobs, the

more efficient transportation of

imported and exported merchandise,

the opportunity for the establishment of

a foreign trade zone, the expanded

development of infrastructure within

the proposed port area, an enhanced

business competitiveness for existing

enterprises and the opportunity to

encourage new businesses to locate

within South Dakota.

As further stated in the proposal, the

Customs office within the port of entry

would be located at the Joe Foss Field

airport in Sioux Falls, which is the

largest urban area within the State of

South Dakota. It has been represented to

Customs that the cost to the Federal

Government would only involve the

services of one full-time Customs

official and therefore would be minimal

compared to the significant benefits that

port of entry status would impart to the

South Dakota business community.

Sioux Falls is located at the junction

of two major state interstate highways

(Interstate 90 and Interstate 29), is

serviced by a major national freight

railway company, and is serviced at the

Joe Foss Field airport by national

passenger and cargo airlines, express air

freight services and commuter airlines.
