Foreign-Trade Zone 64 -- Jacksonville, FL; Application for Expansion
TEXT: An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
(the Board) by the Jacksonville Port Authority (JPA), grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 64, requesting authority to expand its zone in Jacksonville,
within the Jacksonville 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 January 10, 1986.
On December 29, 1980, the Board authorized JPA to establish a foreign-
trade zone (Board Order 170, 46 FR 1330). The project currently involves an
industrial park site at Jacksonville International Airport, a warehouse on
North Ellis Road, and sites at the JPA Talleyrand Dock and Blount Island
Terminal.
The proposed expansion involves 21 acres and 300,000 square feet of
warehouse space at 5400/5510 West 12th Street, Jacksonville. The parcel is
part of a warehousing complex that includes the North Ellis Road zone site.
The complex is owned by Unit Distribution, the designated zone operator.
The additional space is needed mainly to accommodate a user involved in the
warehousing/distribution of auto parts.
In accordance with the Board's regulations, an examiners committee has
been appointed to investigate the application and report to the Board. The
committee consists of: John J. Da Ponte, Jr. (Chairman), Director, Foreign-
Trade Zones Staff, U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, DC 20230;
