TEXT: Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Act of
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), and the FTZ Board (the Board)
Regulations (15 CFR Part 400), the Board adopts the following order:
Whereas, on July 14, 1983, the Board authorized the Board of Harbor
Commissioners of the City of Long Beach (BHC), grantee of FTZ 50, to
establish Subzone 50A for the truck cargo body manufacturing plant of Toyota
Auto Body, Inc., of California (Toyota) (formerly, Toyota Motor
Manufacturing, U.S.A., Inc.) in Long Beach, California, for a period of
five years (to 7/14/88), subject to extension (Board Order 213, 48 FR

Whereas, BHC made application to the Board in April 1988 (FTZ Docket
21-88, filed 4/18/88, 53 FR 16178) for an indefinite extension of the
authority of Subzone 50A;
Whereas, the authorization was temporarily extended to December 31, 1988
(Board Order 390, 53 FR 27542), to allow the Board to complete its review;
Whereas, on November 30, 1988, the applicant withdrew its application
for an indefinite extension, due to changed circumstances, and requested a
90-day period in which to conclude zone status at the plant.
Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
That the authority for Subzone 50A is extended to April 1, 1989, to
permit a winding up to operations conducted under zone procedures, and
