Framework; Dayton, OH

    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of

11/22/10) as an option for the establishment or reorganization of 
general-purpose zones;
    Whereas, the Greater Dayton Foreign-Trade Zone, Inc., grantee of 
Foreign-Trade Zone 100, submitted an application to the Board (FTZ 
Docket 1-2012, filed 01/3/2012) for authority to reorganize under the 
ASF with a service area of Auglaize, Darke, Fayette, Greene, Mercer, 
Miami, Montgomery, Preble and Shelby Counties, Ohio, within and 
adjacent to the Dayton Customs and Border Protection port of entry, and 
FTZ 100's existing Site 1 would be categorized as a magnet site, 
existing Sites 2-5 would be removed, the acreage of Site 1 would be 
reduced, and FTZ 100's existing Site 6 would be categorized as a usage-
driven site;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment was given in the Federal 
Register (77 FR 1053, 1/9/2012) and the application has been processed 
pursuant to the FTZ Act and the Board's regulations; and,
    Whereas, the Board adopts the findings and recommendations of the 
examiner's report, and finds that the requirements of the FTZ Act and 
the Board's regulations are satisfied, and that the proposal is in the 
public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby orders:
    The application to reorganize FTZ 100 under the alternative site 
framework is approved, subject to the FTZ Act and the Board's 
regulations, including Section 400.13, to the Board's standard 2,000-
acre activation limit for the overall general-purpose zone project, and 
to a three-year sunset provision for usage-driven sites that would 
terminate authority for Site 6 if no foreign-status merchandise is 
admitted for a bona fide customs purpose by June 30, 2015.

    Signed at Washington, DC, this 18 day of June 2012.
