1998 Amendment to Cotton Board Rules and Regulations Adjusting
Supplemental Assessment on Imports
AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is amending the
Cotton Board Rules and Regulations by lowering the value assigned to
imported cotton for the purpose of calculating supplemental assessments
collected for use by the Cotton Research and Promotion Program. This
action is required by this regulation on an annual basis to ensure that
the assessments collected on imported cotton and the cotton content of
imported products remain similar to those paid on domestically produced
cotton.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 22, 1998.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Norma McDill, (202) 720-2145.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Executive Order 12866
This rule has been determined to be ``not significant'' for
purposes of Executive Order 12866, and, therefore, has not been
reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget.
Executive Order 12988
This rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12988, Civil
Justice Reform. It is not intended to have retroactive effect. This
rule would not preempt any state or local laws, regulations, or
policies, unless they present an irreconcilable conflict with this
rule.
The Cotton Research and Promotion Act provides that administrative
proceedings must be exhausted before parties may file suit in court.
Under Section 12 of the Act, any person subject to an order may file
with the Secretary a petition stating that the order, any provision of
the plan, or any obligation imposed in connection with the order is not
in accordance with law and requesting a modification of the order or to
be exempted therefrom. Such person is afforded the opportunity for a
hearing on the petition. After the hearing, the Secretary would rule on
the petition. The Act provides that the District Court of the United
States in any district in which the person is an inhabitant, or has his
principal place of business, has jurisdiction to review the Secretary's
ruling, provided a complaint is filed within 20 days from the date of
the entry of the ruling.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Pursuant to requirements set forth in the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) AMS has considered the economic impact
of this action on small entities and has determined that its
implementation will not have a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small businesses.
There are an estimated 16,000 importers who are presently subject
to rules and regulations issued pursuant to the Cotton Research and
Promotion Order. This rule will affect importers of cotton and cotton-
containing products. The majority of these importers are small
businesses under the criteria established by the Small Business
Administration. This rule will lower the assessments paid by the
importers under the Cotton Research and Promotion Order. Even though
the assessment would be lowered, the decrease is small and will not
significantly affect small businesses.
The current assessment on imported cotton is $0.012412 per kilogram
of imported cotton. The amended assessment is $0.011850, a decrease of
$0.000562 or a 4.5 percent decrease from the current assessment. From
January through December 1997 approximately $20 million was collected
at the $0.012412 per kilogram rate. Should the volume of cotton
products imported into the U.S. remain at the same level in 1998, one
could expect the decreased assessment to generate $19.1 million or a
4.5 percent decrease from 1997.
Paperwork Reduction
In compliance with Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
regulations (5 CFR Part 1320) which implement the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the information collection
requirements contained in the regulation to be amended have been
previously approved by OMB and were assigned control number 0581-0093.
Background
The Cotton Research and Promotion Act Amendments of 1990 enacted by
Congress under Subtitle G of Title XIX of the Food, Agriculture,
Conservation and Trade Act of 1990 on November 28, 1990, contained two
provisions that authorized changes in the funding procedures for the
Cotton Research and Promotion Program.
These provisions are: (1) The assessment of imported cotton and
cotton products; and (2) termination of the right of cotton producers
to demand a refund of assessments.
An amended Cotton Research and Promotion Order was approved by
producers and importers voting in a referendum held July 17-26, 1991
and the amended Order was published in the Federal Register on December
10, 1991, (56 FR 64470). Proposed rules implementing the amended Order
were published in the Federal Register on December 17, 1991, (56 FR
65450). Implementing rules were published on July 1 and 2, 1992, (57 FR
29181) and (57 FR 29431), respectively.
This rule will decrease the value assigned to imported cotton in
the Cotton Board Rules and Regulations (7 CFR 1205.510 (b)(2)). This
value is used to calculate supplemental assessments on imported cotton
and the cotton content of imported products. Supplemental assessments
are the second part of a two-part assessment. The first part of the
assessment is levied on the weight of cotton produced or imported at a
rate of $1 per bale of cotton which is equivalent to 500 pounds or $1
per 226.8 kilograms of cotton.
Supplemental assessments are levied at a rate of five-tenths of one
percent of the value of domestically produced cotton, imported cotton,
and the cotton content of imported products. The agency has adopted the
practice of assigning the calendar year average price received by U.S.
farmers for Upland cotton to represent the value of imported cotton.
This is done so that the assessment on domestically produced cotton and
the assessment on imported cotton and the cotton content of imported
products remain similar. The source for the average price statistic is
``Agricultural Prices'', a publication of the National Agricultural
Statistics Service (NASS) of the Department of Agriculture. Use of the
average price figure in the calculation of supplemental assessments on
imported cotton and the cotton content of imported products yields an
assessment that approximates assessments paid on domestically produced
cotton in the prior calendar year.
The current value of imported cotton as published in the Federal
Register (62 FR 46412) on September 2, 1997, for the purpose of
calculating supplemental assessments on imported cotton is $1.6005 per
kilogram. This number was calculated using the annual average price
received by farmers for Upland cotton during the calendar year 1996
which was $0.726 per pound and multiplying by the conversion factor
[[Page 27819]]
2.2046. Using the Average Price Received by U.S. Farmers for Upland
Cotton for the calendar year 1997, which is $0.675 per pound, the new
value of imported cotton is $1.4881 per kilogram. The amended value is
$0.1124 per kilogram less than the previous value.
An example of the complete assessment formula and how the various
figures are obtained is as follows:
One bale is equal to 500 pounds.
One kilogram equals 2.2046 pounds.
One pound equals 0.453597 kilograms.
One Dollar Per Bale Assessment Converted to Kilograms
A 500 pound bale equals 226.8 kg. (500 x .453597).
$1 per bale assessment equals $0.002000 per pound (1500)
or $0.004409 per kg. (1226.8).
Supplemental Assessment of \5/10\ of One Percent of the Value of the
Cotton Converted to Kilograms
The 1997 calendar year average price received by producers for Upland
cotton is $0.675 per pound or $1.4881 per kg. (0.675 x
2.2046)=1.4881.
Five tenths of one percent of the average price in kg. equals $0.007441
per kg. (1.4881 x .005).
Total Assessment
The total assessment per kilogram of raw cotton is obtained by
adding the $1 per bale equivalent assessment of $0.004409 per kg. and
the supplemental assessment $0.007441 per kg. which equals $0.011850
per kg.
The current assessment on imported cotton is $0.012412 per kilogram
of imported cotton. The amended assessment is $0.011850, a decrease of
$0.000562 per kilogram. This decrease reflects the decrease in the
Average Price of Upland Cotton Received by U.S. Farmers during the
period January through December 1997.
Since the value of cotton is the basis of the supplemental
assessment calculation and the figures shown in the right hand column
of the Import Assessment Table 1205.510(b)(3) are a result of such a
calculation, the figures in this table have been revised. These figures
indicate the total assessment per kilogram due for each Harmonized
Tariff Schedule (HTS) number subject to assessment.
Eight HTS numbers subject to assessment pursuant to this regulation
and found in the assessment table have been changed. In order to
maintain consistency between the HTS and the assessment table, the
changes to these eight numbers have been incorporated into the
assessment table. The last two digits of these numbers were changed to
provide for statistical reporting purposes and involve no physical
change to the products they represent. Therefore, the assessment rate
is not affected by the change. The assessment rate for each of the
eight numbers has been applied to each of the new replacement numbers
in the assessment table. The following table represents the changes:
