Dallas FTZ Applies for Expansion into Neighboring County

The Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport Board has applied to expand the area served by Foreign-Trade Zone 39, according to an FTZ Board notice set for publication in the Sept. 19 Federal Register. The zone currently has a service area that includes Dallas, Tarrant, Kaufman, Collin, Grayson and Denton Counties, Texas. Under the expansion, it would also cover Hunt County, Texas. If approved, the zone’s grantee would be able to serve sites throughout the expanded service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation, said the FTZB. Comments are due by Nov. 18.
