Pursuant to the authority granted in the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June

adopted the following Resolution and Order:
The Board, having considered the matter, hereby orders:
After consideration of the application of the City of New York, New York,
grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 111, filed with the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
(the Borad) on September 25, 1985, requesting special-purpose subzone status
for the storage and sweater manufacturing-for-export operations of Jack
Young Associates, Inc., in New York City, within the New York Customs port

The Secretary of Commerce, as Chairman and Executive Officer of the

Grant of Authority To Establish a Foreign-Trade Subzone in New York City
Whereas, by an Act of Congress approved June 18, 1934, an Act "To provide
for the establishment, operation, and maintenance of foreign-trade zones in
ports of entry of the United States, to expedite and encourage foreign
commerce, and for other purposes", as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u) (the Act),
the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board) is authorized and empowered to
grant to corporations the privilege of establishing, operating, and
maintaining foreign-trade zones in or adjacent to ports of entry under the
jurisdiction of the United States;
Whereas, the Board's regulations (15 CFR 400.304) provide for the
establishment of special-purpose subzones when existing zone facilities
cannot serve the specific use involved, and where a significant public
benefit will result;
Whereas, the City of New York, New York, grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone
No. 111, has made application (filed September 25, 1985, Docket 36-85, 50
FR 42198) in due and proper form to the Board for authority to establish a
special-purpose subzone for the storage and sweater manufacturing-for-export
operations of Jack Young Associates, Inc., in St. Albans (Queens), New York,
within the New York Customs port of entry;
Whereas, notice of said application has been given and published, and
full opportunity has been afforded all interested parties to be heard; and,
Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the Act and the
Board's regulations are satisfied;
Now, therefore, in accordance with the application filed September 25,
1985, the Board hereby authorizes the establishment of a subzone for storage
and export manufacturing at the Jack Young Associates plant in New York
City, designated on the records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Subzone No.
111A at the location mentioned above and more particularly described on the
maps and drawings accompanying the application, said grant of authority
being subject to the provisions and restrictions of the Act and the
Regulations issued thereunder, to the same extent as though the same were
fully set forth herein, and also to the following express conditions and
limitations:
Activation of the subzone shall be commenced within a reasonable time
from the date of issuance of the grant, and prior thereto, any necessary
permits shall be obtained from Federal, State, and municipal authorities.
Officers and employees of the United States shall have free and
unrestricted access to and throughout the foreign-trade subzone in the
performance of their official duties.
The grant shall not be construed to relieve responsible parties from
liability for injury or damage to the person or property of others
occasioned by the construction, operation, or maintenance of said subzone,
and in no event shall the United States be liable therefor.
The grant is further subject to settlement locally by the District
Director of Customs and District Army Engineer with the Grantee regarding
compliance with their respective requirements for the protection of the
revenue of the United States and the installation of suitable facilities.
In witness whereof, the Foreign-Trade Zones Board has caused its name
to be signed and its seal to be affixed hereto by its Chairman and
Executive Officer or his delegate at Washington, D.C., this 10th day of
March 1986, pursuant to Order of the Board.
Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
