Reorganization/Expansion

    An application has been submitted to the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ)

include additional acreage in or adjacent to the Williams

Gateway Airport Customs and Border Protection user-fee airport. 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 August 8, 2007.
    FTZ 221 was approved on April 25, 1997 (Board Order 883, 62 FR 
25164, 5/8/97). The general-purpose zone currently consists of one site 
(3,020 acres) at the Williams Gateway Airport located at 6001 South 
Power Road in Mesa (Maricopa County).
    The applicant is now requesting authority for a reorganization and 
expansion of the zone site: 1) Modify the existing site by deleting 
1,609 acres at the airport; and, 2) Expand the existing site to include 
an additional 607 acres (3 parcels) at the Logistics Park Mesa (LPM) 
located adjacent to the airport. The proposal will result in an overall 
net decrease in total zone space. LPM is owned by Pecos Capital Group 
LLC, North Valley Corporate Center LLC and Crismon Capital Group LLC. 
The site will provide warehousing and distribution services to area 
businesses. No specific manufacturing authority is being requested 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 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 
October 22, 2007. Rebuttal comments in response to material submitted 
during the foregoing period may be submitted during the subsequent 15-
day period to November 5, 2007.
    A copy of the application and accompanying exhibits will be 
available for public inspection at each of the following locations: 
City of Mesa Economic Development/Mesa City Plaza, 20 East Main Street, 
Mesa, AZ 85201; and, Office of the Executive Secretary, Foreign-Trade 
Zones Board, Room 2111, U.S. Department of Commerce, 1401 Constitution 
Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230.
