Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today denied 
a petition filed by a group of freshwater prawn producers from Kentucky 
for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) that was filed on February 23, 
2004.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT: Jean-Louis Pajot, Coordinator, Trade 
Adjustment Assistance for Farmers, FAS, USDA, [phone], e-mail:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that the price information provided in the petition could 
not be validated. Thus Kentucky prawn prices could not be verified to 
have declined by more than 20 percent during the January-December 2002 
marketing year, compared to the previous 5-year average, a condition 
required for certifying a petition for TAA.

    Dated: April 9, 2004.
A. Ellen Terpstra,
Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
