FTZ Board Outreach Events on Feb. 13 in Washington
The FTZ Board will be holding outreach events in Washington, DC on February 13, 2013. See below for RSVP information.
There is no charge for the outreach events, which are scheduled for the day after a FTZ-related industry seminar in
Washington. (Note: We will also be sending an announcement soon about no-cost webinars we plan to hold in 2013 on a
range of topics of interest to the FTZ community.)
The details of the two events on February 13 are:
9:00 a.m. to noon – General training open to anyone interested in attending (including grantees) – Will cover
submission of the annual report, provisions of the 2012 regulations, plus enable Q & A/discussion.
1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. – Outreach session for officials of grantee organizations – Will focus on the grantee’s
submission of the annual report, regulatory provisions that have a direct impact on the grantee role (including zone
schedule requirements), and enable Q & A/discussion.
The events will be held at the U.S. Department of Commerce building, located at 1401 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington,
DC 20230. Directions to the building can be found here:
