SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
This rule establishes a ``CA Utility'' quality requirement, based
on minimum quality standards established under the California
Agriculture Code, with a limitation on the amount of fruit meeting U.S.
No. 1 or higher grade requirements that may be contained in the utility
pack. This final rule also requires that containers of nectarines and
peaches meeting the ``CA Utility'' quality requirement be clearly
marked ``CA Utility.''
Need for Correction
In the final rule, FR Doc. 96-10758, published May 1, 1996, the
last sentence in section (a)(1)(ii) was inadvertently omitted,
therefore, the existing language may prove to be misleading and is in
need of clarification.
Correction of Publication
Accordingly, in FR Doc. 96-10758, page 19164, second column section
916.356, paragraph (a)(1)(ii) is corrected to read as follows:
Sec. 916.356 [Corrected]
(a) * * *
(ii) Free from serious damage due to skin breaks, cuts, growth
cracks, bruises, or other causes. Damage to any nectarine is serious
when it causes a waste of 10 percent or more, by volume, of the
individual nectarine.
* * * * *
Dated: May 20, 1996.

Director, Fruit and Vegetable Division.
