[Order No. 748]
Grant of Authority for Subzone Status, Loop Inc. (Crude Oil
Terminal System) Lafourche and St. James Parishes, LA
Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June
18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
(the Board) adopts the following Order:
Whereas, by an Act of Congress approved June 18, 1934, an Act ``To
provide for the establishment . . . 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 to grant to
qualified corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade
zones in or adjacent to U.S. Customs ports of entry;
Whereas, the Board's regulations (15 CFR part 400) provide for the
establishment of special-purpose subzones when existing zone facilities
cannot serve the specific use involved;
Whereas, an application from the South Louisiana Port Commission,
grantee of Foreign-Trade Zone 124, for authority to establish special-
purpose subzone status for the crude oil terminal system operated by
LOOP Inc. in Lafourche and St. James Parishes, Louisiana, was filed by
the Board on November 17, 1994, and notice inviting public comment was
given in the Federal Register (FTZ Docket 37-94, 59 FR 60951, 11/29/
94); and,
Whereas, the Board has found that the requirements of the FTZ Act
and Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the
application is in the public interest;
Now, therefore, the Board hereby authorizes the establishment of a
subzone (Subzone 124D) at the LOOP Inc. facilities in Lafourche and St.
James Parishes, Louisiana, at the location described in the
application, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations,
including Sec. 400.28.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 1st day of June, 1995.
Susan G. Esserman,
Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Enforcement and Compliance, Alternate
Chairman, Foreign-Trade Zones Board.
John J. Da Ponte, Jr.,
Executive Secretary.
