Arizona FTZ Applies for ASF Reorganization
The Nogales-Santa Cruz Economic Development Foundation has submitted an application to the Foreign-Trade Zones Board to reorganize FTZ 60 under the Alternative Site Framework, said the FTZ Board in a Federal Register notice. Under the reorganization, the service area would cover Santa Cruz County, Arizona, which includes the Nogales border crossing. ASF streamlines processes for designation of new FTZ subzones and usage driven sites within the service area by allowing companies to request zone status through the relatively simple "minor boundary modification" process. Comments on the application are due by May 19.
