    (b) When a size limitation restricts the shipment of a portion of the 210 size Dancy or Robinson tangerines during a particular week as provided in § 905.52, the committee shall compute the quantity of the 210 size of such variety that may be shipped by each handler by multiplying the handler's volume of shipments of such variety in the applicable prior period by the percentage established by regulation for such variety for that week.

    (c) The committee shall notify each handler of the quantity of 210 size Dancy or Robinson tangerines such handler may handle during the particular week.

    (d) Any handler may transfer any or all of his or her shipping allowance of 210 size Dancy or Robinson tangerines to another handler.

The committee shall confirm all such transfers immediately after completion thereof by memorandum to the handlers involved.
