Beef Promotion and Research; Board and State Beef Council
Addresses
AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document updates the Notice published in the Federal
Register on Monday, October 15, 1990 (55 FR 41730). This Notice
provides the addresses of the Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and Research
Board (Board) and the current addresses of the 44 Qualified State Beef
Councils (QSBCs) which are authorized under the Cattlemen's Beef
Promotion and Research Order (Order) to receive assessments.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ralph L. Tapp, Chief, Marketing
Programs Branch 202/720-1115.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Beef Promotion and Research
Act (Act) (7 U.S.C. 2901 et. seq.), the Order was published in the July
18, 1986, Federal Register (51 FR 26132). Regulations implementing the
Order were published in the October 1, 1986, issue of the Federal
Register (51 FR 35196).
The Order and the Regulations provide that, beginning October 1,
1986, cattle sold in the United States are subject to an assessment of
$1 per head. Persons who collect assessments from producers under the
Order and Regulations are required to remit those assessments to the
QSBC in the State where they reside or to the Board if there is no QSBC
located in their State.
Imported cattle, beef, and beef products are also subject to
equivalent assessments; these are paid through the U.S. Customs
Service.
The Act (7 U.S.C. 2901 et. seq.) required that a referendum be
conducted by the Secretary within 22 months after the issuance of the
Order to determine if the Order should be continued or suspended. Any
person had the right to demand and receive from the Board a one-time
refund on cattle sold during the period prior to the approval of the
continuation of the order pursuant to the referendum. On May 10, 1988,
the referendum was conducted and producers voted to continue the
checkoff program. After the passage of the referendum, refunds were no
longer available.
This Notice provides the current addresses of the Board and 44
QSBCs. Since the publication of the addresses in the Federal Register
on October 15, 1990 (55 FR 41730), no additional State Beef Councils
have been certified by the Board. However, some of the addresses have
changed. QSBCs have different addresses for different purposes.
Accordingly, this notice includes two columns for such addresses; one
for inquires and general business and one for remitting assessments and
accompanying reports. For inquires and general business, the address of
the Board is Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and Research Board; P.O. Box
3316; Englewood, Colorado 80155. For remitting assessments and
accompanying reports, the address of the Board is Cattlemen's Beef
Promotion and Research Board; P.O. Box 27-275; Kansas City, Missouri
64180-0001.
