[Docket 28-95]
Foreign-Trade Zone 145--Shreveport, Louisiana; Application for
Expansion
An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
(the Board) by the Caddo-Bossier Port Commission, grantee of Foreign-
Trade Zone 145, requesting authority to expand its zone in the
Shreveport, Louisiana, area, within the Shreveport-Bossier City 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
May 30, 1995.
FTZ 145 was approved on January 7, 1988 (Board Order 370, 53 FR
1503, 1/20/88). The zone currently consists of a 116-acre site on U.S.
Highway 171 at Baird Road, Shreveport. The zone project also includes
subzone status for the AT&T Shreveport Works.
The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the general-
purpose zone to include the new Port of Shreveport-Bossier terminal
complex (2,000 acres), located 4 miles south of Shreveport in Caddo
Parish, Louisiana. The Port complex primarily is owned and operated by
the applicant, with some privately-owned facilities.
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.
Public comment on the application is invited from interested
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 August 7, 1995. Rebuttal comments in response to
