Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:
Whereas, CODEZOL, C.D., grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 163, submitted an application to the Board for authority to expand its zone to include a site at the Yaucono Industrial Park (Site 12) in Ponce, Puerto Rico, within the Ponce Customs and Border Protection port of entry (FTZ Docket 17-2010, filed 3/8/10);
Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal Register (75 FR 12730-12731, 3/17/10) and the application has been processed pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendation of the examiner's report (including the renumbering of Rio Piedras Distribution Center located within existing Site 3 as Site 13), and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and Board's regulations are satisfied, and that the proposal is in the public interest;
