    Pursuant to its authority under the Foreign-Trade Zones Act of 
June 18, 1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a-81u), the Foreign-Trade 
Zones Board (the Board) adopts the following Order:

    Whereas, the Foreign-Trade Zones (FTZ) Act provides for ``* * * the 
establishment * * * of foreign-trade zones in ports of entry of the 
United States, to expedite and encourage foreign commerce, and for 
other purposes,'' and authorizes the Foreign-Trade Zones Board to grant 
to qualified corporations the privilege of establishing foreign-trade 
zones in or adjacent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) ports 
of entry;
    Whereas, Greater Maricopa Foreign Trade Zone, Inc. (the Grantee) 
has made application to the Board (FTZ Docket 60-2009, filed 12/18/09), 
requesting the establishment of a foreign-trade zone in Western 
Maricopa County; Arizona, adjacent to the Phoenix U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection port of entry;
    Whereas, notice inviting public comment has been given in the 
Federal Register (74 FR 68785-68786, 12/29/09), 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 
Board's regulations are satisfied, and that approval of the application 
is in the public interest;
    Now, therefore, the Board hereby grants to the Grantee the 
privilege of establishing a foreign-trade zone, designated on the 
records of the Board as Foreign-Trade Zone No. 277, at the sites 
described in the application, and subject to the FTZ Act and the
