An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the
Board) by the Indiana Port Commission, grantee of FTZ 177, requesting
authority to expand its zone in Evansville, Indiana. 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 June 29, 1992.
FTZ 177 was approved on March 12, 1991 (Board Order 513, 56 FR 12155,
