Justification for Change Worksheet

OMB No. 0581-0178 Vegetable and Specialty Crops

Federal Marketing Order for Walnuts Grown in California (7 CFR Part 984)


October 2018


This Justification for Change seeks OMB’s approval on modifications to one form that is part of OMB No. 0581-0178, Vegetable and Specialty Crops. The California Walnut Board uses the form to locally administer handling regulations authorized by a Federal marketing order (7 CFR part 984) under the Agricultural Marketing Service’s oversight.


Report of Merchantable Walnuts Shipped CWB Form 6 (§ 984.72 and 984.472): Walnut handlers in California file this report with the Board on a monthly basis to report their shipments of merchantable walnuts to global destinations. The Board uses the information to formulate marketing policy and verify compliance with quality and volume regulations.

Periodically, Board staff update the list of potential export destinations. The new version of the form requiring OMB’s approval no longer includes Venezuela in the “Central & South America” grouping. Denmark and Portugal were added to the “Europe” grouping, and Bahrain and Qatar were added to the “Middle East/Africa” grouping. The estimated 10-minute timespan handlers need to complete the revised form does not change as a result of modifications to the form. The overall burden remains unchanged because the same population of handlers are competing the form to report shipments to an updated list of countries.
