An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)
Board (the Board), by the City of Tucson, Arizona, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 174, requesting authority to expand its zone (Site 2) in
Tucson, Arizona, within the Tucson Customs 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 November 8, 1999.
FTZ 174 was approved on January 30, 1991 (Board Order 508, 56 FR
4595, 2/5/91). The City of Tucson, Arizona, was designated the new
grantee on November 22, 1996. The general-purpose zone project
currently consists of five sites (398 acres): Site 1 (107 acres)--
Southpointe Park, intersection of Kolb and Valencia Roads; Site 2 (193
acres)--Century Park Research Center, along Kolb Road between Valencia
Road and I-10; Site 3 (70 acres)--within the Santa Cruz industrial
park; Site 4 (25 acres)--within the Downtown Commerce Park, adjacent to
I-19 and I-10; and, Site 5 (3 acres)--warehouse facility, 330 South
Toole Avenue.
The applicant is now requesting authority to expand existing Site
2, by
[[Page 63786]]
adding a 70-acre parcel within the Century Park Research Center, along
Kolb Road between Valencia Road and I-10, Tucson. This proposed
expansion is located within the State designated Enterprise Zone and
will increase Site 2 from 193 acres to 263 acres. The area previously
had FTZ status prior to a relocation of certain space in 1996. The site
is owned by the Levin Family Limited Partnership. No specific
manufacturing requests are being made at this time. Such requests would
be made to the Board on a case-by-case basis.
In accordance with the Board's regulations, a member of the FTZ
Staff has been designated examiner to investigate the application and
report to the Board.

parties. Submissions (original and 3 copies) shall be addressed to the
Board's Executive Secretary at the address below. The closing period
for their receipt is January 21, 2000. Rebuttal comments in response to
