AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final action provides a new formula to price Class II
milk under 37 Federal orders. The Class II milk price will be
calculated by adding a fixed differential of 30 cents to the basic
formula price for the second preceding month. The Class II price will,
like the Class I price in all Federal orders, be announced on or before
the fifth day of the month and apply to milk marketed during the
following month. This action also will eliminate the ``add-back''
provision which requires that the difference between the Class II price
and the Class III price be added to the subsequent month's Class II
price when the Class II price for the month falls below the Class III
price.
Each of the amended orders was approved by producers who were
eligible to have their milk pooled during the representative month for
voting purposes. Referenda were conducted in six markets and
cooperative associations were polled in the other markets. One order
that was included in this proceeding--Paducah, Kentucky--is not
included in this final rule. For Paducah, Kentucky, a referendum was
conducted and a sufficient number of producers did not approve the
issuance of the proposed amended order.
EFFECTIVE DATE: March 1, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Gino M. Tosi, Marketing Specialist,
USDA/AMS/Dairy Division, Order Formulation Branch, Room 2971, South
Building, P.O. Box 96456, Washington, DC 20090-6456, (202) 690-1366.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This administrative action is governed by
the provisions of Sections 556 and 557 of Title 5 of the United States
Code and therefore is excluded from the requirements of Executive Order
12866.
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601-612) requires the
Agency to examine the impact of a final rule on small entities.
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 605(b), the Administrator of the Agricultural
Marketing Service has certified that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
The amended orders will promote more orderly marketing of milk by
producers and regulated handlers.
This final rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12778,
Civil Justice Reform. This action is not intended to have a retroactive
effect. This action will not preempt any state or local laws,
regulations, or policies, unless they present an irreconcilable
conflict with this rule.
The Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as amended (7
U.S.C. 601-674), provides that administrative proceedings must be
exhausted before parties may file suit in court. Under section
608c(15)(A) of the Act, any handler subject to an order may file with
the Secretary a petition stating that the order, any provision of the
order, or any obligation imposed in connection with the order is not in
accordance with the law and requesting a modification of the order or
to be exempted from the order. A handler is afforded the opportunity
for a hearing on the petition. After a 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 handler is an inhabitant, or
has its principal place of business, has jurisdiction in equity to
review the Secretary's ruling on the petition, provided a bill in
equity is filed not later than 20 days after the date of the entry of
the ruling.

Recommended Decision: Issued August 22, 1994; published August 26,

Findings and Determinations
The findings and determinations hereinafter set forth supplement
those that were made when each of the aforesaid orders was first issued
and when each was amended. The previous findings and determinations are
hereby ratified and confirmed, except where they may conflict with
those set forth herein.
The following findings are hereby made with respect to each of the
aforesaid orders:
(a) Findings upon the basis of the hearing record. Pursuant to the
provisions of the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as
amended (7 U.S.C. 601-674), and the applicable rules of practice and
procedure governing the formulation of marketing agreements and
marketing orders (7 CFR part 900), a public hearing was held upon
certain proposed amendments to the tentative marketing agreements and
to the orders regulating the handling of milk in the respective
marketing areas.
Upon the basis of the evidence introduced at such hearing and the
record thereof, for each of the specified orders, it is found that:
(1) The said order as hereby amended, and all of the terms and
conditions thereof, will tend to effectuate the declared policy of the
Act;
[[Page 6607]]
(2) The parity prices of milk, as determined pursuant to section 2
of the Act, are not reasonable in view of the price of feeds, available
supplies of feeds, and other economic conditions which affect market
supply and demand for milk in the said marketing area; and the minimum
prices specified in the order as hereby amended, are such prices as
will reflect the aforesaid factors, insure a sufficient quantity of
pure and wholesome milk, and be in the public interest; and
(3) The said order as hereby amended regulates the handling of milk
in the same manner as, and is applicable only to persons in the
respective classes of industrial or commercial activity specified in, a
marketing agreement upon which a hearing was held.
(b) Determinations. It is hereby determined that:
(1) The refusal or failure of handlers (excluding cooperative
associations specified in Sec. 8c(9) of the Act) of more than 50
percent of the milk, which is marketed within each of the specified
marketing areas, to sign a proposed marketing agreement, tends to
prevent the effectuation of the declared policy of the Act;
(2) The issuance of this order amending each of the specified
orders is the only practical means pursuant to the declared policy of
the Act of advancing the interests of producers as defined in the
respective orders as hereby amended;
(3) The issuance of the order amending each of the specified
orders, except the order regulating the handling of milk in the
Michigan Upper Peninsula marketing area, is favored by at least two-
thirds of the producers who were engaged in the production of milk for
sale in the respective marketing areas; and
(4) The issuance of the order amending the order regulating the
handling of milk in the Michigan Upper Peninsula marketing area is
favored by at least three-fourths of the producers who during the
determined representative period were engaged in the production of milk
for sale in the marketing area.
