Title 3—The President
PROCLAMATION 4496
W orld Trade Week, 1977
By the President of the United States of America
A Proclamation
' We live in a world where all of us must depend on each other— a world divided
by nationality and philosophy, but drawn together by common problems and common
hopes. We share with all people a concern about unemployment, inequality, poverty,
inflation, and the danger of war. And we share with all people the hope of a life free
of hunger, disease, and repression, and a determination to overcome international
differences with mutual trust, respect and cooperation.
Our desire for justice, stability, and peace finds practical expression in world trade.
Trade generates forces of friendship and understanding, which in turn bring us closer
to the kind of world we want.
The United States is the unsurpassed leader in international commerce. Because
our total trade is greater than that of any other nation, we can, by increasing our trade
activities, make an enormous contribution to the health of the international economy,
to the job market at home and abroad, to progressive relationships between rich and
poor nations and, finally, to the cause of peace on our globe.
NOW, T H E R E F O R E , I, JIM M Y G ARTER, President of the United States of
America, do hereby proclaim the week beginning May 22, 1977, as World Trade Week.
I urge business, labor, agricultural, educational, professional and civic groups, the
communications media, and all concerned Americans, to observe World Trade Week
with meetings, discussions, exhibits, ceremonies, and other appropriate activities that
promote continuing awareness of the importance of world trade to our Nation and to
our relations with other nations.
IN W ITN ESS W H ER E O F, I have hereunto set my hand this eighth day of
April, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred seventy-seven, and of the Independ
ence of the United States of America the two hundred and first.

Salable Quantity and Allotment Percentage
for the 1 9 7 7 -7 8 Marketing Year
AGENCY : Agricultural Marketing Serv

ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: This rule establishes the
quantitiy of hops that may be freely
marketed from the 1977 crop. The ac
tion is taken under the marketing order
for domestic hops to promote orderly
marketing conditions.
EFFECTIVE DATE: August 1, 1977.

TACT:
Charles R. Brader, Deputy Director,
Fruit and Vegetable Division, Agricul
tural Marketing Service, U.S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington, D.C.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
Notice was published in the March 10,
1977, issue of the F ederal R egister (42
F R 13301) of a proposal to establish,
for the 1977-78 marketing year, begin
ning August 1, 1977, a salable quantity
of 60,270,000 pounds, and an allotment
percentage of 100 percent. This action is
based on recommendation of the Hop
Administrative Committee in accordance
with provisions of Marketing Order No.
991, as amended (7 CFR Part 991), reg
ulating the handling of hops of domestic
production. The order is effective under
the Agricultural Marketing Agreement
Act of 1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601674).
The Committee’s recommendation is
based on the following estimates for the
marketing year beginning August 1,
1977.
(1) Total domestic consumption of
35.500.000 pounds of hops;
(2) Minus imports of 10,000,000
pounds of hops to result in domestic
consumption of U.S. hops of 25,500,000
pounds;
(3) Plus total U.S. exports of 30,000,000 pounds of hops to equal 55,500,000
pounds total usage of U.S. hops;
(4) Plus 1,000,000 pounds to adjust
for weight loss for hops processed into
pellets;
(5) Plus an adjustment of 3,770,000
pounds to provide for adequate supplies
should some producer allotments not be
fully produced.
Therefore, the salable quantity during
the 1977-78 marketing year will be
60.270.000 pounds.
The salable percentage of 100 percent
is computed by subtracting from this sal
able quantity 1,000,000 pounds for ad
ditional allotment bases for hops of the
Fuggle variety pursuant to §§ 991.38(b)
and 991.138(c) and dividing the remain
der by 59,270,000 pounds, the total .of
all allotment bases less the 1,000,000
pounds additional allotment bases for
Fuggle variety hops.
After consideration of all relevant
m atter presented, including that in the
notice, tile information and recommen
dations submitted by the Committee, and
other available information, it is found
that to establish a salable quantity and
allotment percentage as hereinafter set
forth will tend to effectuate the declared
policy of the act.
Therefore, the salable quantity and
allotment percentage to be applicable
to the 1977-78 marketing year (August 1,
1977-July 31, 1978) are established as
follows:
§ 9 9 1 .2 1 5 Allotment percentage and sal
able quantity for hops during the
marketing year beginning August 1,
1977.
The allotment percentage during the
marketing year beginning August 1,1977,
shall be 100 percent, and the salable
quantity shall be 60,270,000 pounds.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
There have been cracks reported in the
subject tube assembly and bracket in the
F-27 and FH-227 airplanes and AD 6607-04 was issued requiring an appropriate
inspection. I t in turn was replaced by
AD 66-30-04 in turn amended in 1969 to
include the lower engine mount tube as
semblies and again in 1969 to include re
placement parts. This amendment will
include additional parts manufactured
since the last amendment. Since this de
ficiency can exist or develop in airplanes
of similar type design utilizing such
newly manufactured parts, an Airworthi
ness Directive is being issued to include
such parts in the Airworthiness Direc
tive.
Since the foregoing affects air safety,
notice and public procedure hereon are
impractical and good cause exists for
making the amendment effective in less
than 30 days.
It has been determined that the ex
pected impact of the proposed regula
tion is so minimal that the proposal
does not warrant an evaluation.
Accordingly, and pursuant to the au
thority delegated to me by the Adminis
trator (14 CFR 11.89), § 39.13 of Part 39
of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR 39.13) is amended, effective April
13, 1977, by amending AD 66-30-04 as
follows:
A mendment of AD 66-30-04
1. Delete the word “Time” wherever
it appears.
2. Change paragraph (b) so as to insert
the figures “,-12,-13,-14,-31 or -3 2 ”
after the figures “P/N 01-110105-3,-4,1 1 .”
3. Change parenthetical paragraph to
read; Fairchild Service Bullentins F 2754-14 and FH227-54-4, Revision 3 dated
January 7, 1977, cover this subject.
(Secs. 313(a), 601, and 603, Federal Avia

PART 39— AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVES
Pratt & Whitney Aircraft; Model JT8D - 9

ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: This airworthines directive
(AD) action eliminates certain turbine
stator and rotor inspection requirements,
applicable to certain P ratt and Whitney
Model JT 8D engines, th at are contained
in an earlier AD. This action is based
on engine endurance testing, analysis,
and service experience that indicate the
requirements being eliminated are not
necessary.
EFFECTIVE DATE: April 15, 1977.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
AD 74-10-12, Amendment 39-1835 (39
FR 16388), became effective on May 21,
1974. Amendment 39-2088 (40 FR 6202),
effective February 20,1975, amended the
AD by adding and deleting certain serial
numbered engines. The AD was issued
to prevent interference between turbine
stators and rotors on certain serial num
bered JT8D enginess because of pos
sible inadvertent installation of stator
vanes of the wrong material. Prolonged
operation of these stator vanes could
result in excessive rearward creep de
formation and consequent contact with
the rotor disk. The AD presently re
quires measurement of the axial gap
between JT 8D -9 and -9A engine second
and third stage turbine stators, which
experience the most deformation, and
their respective turbine rotors to as
sure adequate operating clearances. If
the clearance is less than a specified
limit, the stators not approved for the
engine must be replaced within 25 hours
operating time. For clearances greater
than the limit, further operation up to
6000 hours is allowed before replace
ment. For JT 8D -7 and -7A engines,
which experience less severe creep con
ditions, axial clearance measurements
are not required. Replacement of second
stage stator vanes not approved for these
engines is required prior to the accumu
lation of 6,000 hours time in service after
February 20,1975.
After publication of the AD, engine
endurance testing, analysis, and service
experience showed that creep deforma
tion of all second and third; stage stator
vanes is not as severe as originally cal
culated- and therefore any vane, regard
less of material, is suitable for use. For
the fourth stage, any vane material is
suitable for the JT 8D -7 and -7A model
engines; however, PWA 655 material
must be used for the JT 8D -9 and -9A
models because of more severe operat
ing conditions. Therefore, the AD is be
ing superseded by a new AD that only
requires inspection and replacement of
fourth stage turbine státor vanes not
approved for the listed serial numbered
JT8D -9 and -9A engines prior to the
accumulation of 6,000 hours time in
service after the effective date of Amend
ment 39-2088 to AD 74-10-12.
Since this amendment relieves a re
striction, and imposes no additional
burden on any person, notice and public
procedure hereon are unnecessary and
the amendment may be made effective
in less th an '30 days.
In consideration of the foregoing, and
pursuant to the authority delegated to
me by the Administrator (14 CFR 11.89),
§ 39.13 of Part 39 of the Federal Aviation
Regulations is amended by adding the
following new airworthiness directive:

Alteration of Control Zone— Sedalia,
Missouri
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administra
tion (DOT).
ACTION: Final Rule.
SUMMARY: This amendment alters the
designation of the Sedalia, Missouri,
control zone from a continuous to a parttime control zone. This action is in re
sponse to a request from the United
States Air Force so th at the control zone
designation will coincide with the hours
of operation of Whiteman Air Force
Base, Missouri, on which the Sedalia,
Missouri, control zone is centered. Since
the Air Force Base is the prime user of
the control zone, this action will make
available airspace for use by other seg
ments of aviation without undue restric
tion.
EFFECTIVE DATE: April 18, 1977.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
The purpose of this amendment to Sub
part F of Part 71 of the Federal Aviation
Regulations (14 CFR Part 71) is to alter
the designation of the Sedalia, Missouri»,
control zone from a continuous to a parttime control zone. Whiteman Air Force
Base personnel currently take the official
weather observations required for the
Sedalia, Missouri, control zone. The re
duced hours of operation at the Air Force
Base result in the unavailability of re
quired weather observations. A control
zone is not authorized unless appropriate
weather information concerning that
control zone is reported by a certificated
observer. Therefore, this action is neces
sary in order to have the control zone
effective only during the hours of opera
tion of the Air Force Base.
Since there is no present alternative to
this action and in order to permit the
Air Force to reduce weather reporting
service at Sedalia at the earliest possible
date, notice and public procedure under
5 U.S.C. 553(b) is impracticable and con
trary to the public interest and good
cause exists for making this amendment
effective in less than thirty (30) days
after its publication.
Accordingly, Subpart F of Part 71 of
the Federal Aviation Regulations (14
CFR Part 71) as republished (42 F R 355),
is amended, effective 0901 G m .t., April
18,1977, by altering the Sedalia, Missouri,
control zone to read as follows:
Sedalia , M issouri
miles N of the VOR, and within 2 miles each
side of the Whiteman TACAN 185° radial, ex
tending from the 5-mile radius zone to 7
miles S of the TACAN. This control zone is
effective during the specific dates and times
established in advance by a Notice to Airmen.
The effective date and time will thereafter be
continuously published in the Airman’s In
formation Manual.

ACTION: Proposed rule.
SUMMARY: This notice proposes to add
a new airworthiness directive (AD) to
require inspections of a specific area of
the Boeing Model 727 airplane floor
structure. The AD is needed because
cracks have been found that could cause
in-flight depressurization.
DATES: Comments must be received on
or before June 1, 1977. Proposed com
pliance times—Initial compliance within
the next 750 pressurization cycles, unless
accomplished within the last 250 pres
surization cycles if inspected, by the low
frequency eddy current method or 1250
pressurization cycles if inspected by the
conventional eddy current method or
dye-penetrant method. Repetitive inspec
tions every 1000 pressurization cycles for
low frequency eddy current inspection
or 2000 pressurization cycles for either
eddy current or dye penetrant inspec
tions.

SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION:
Cracks have been found in the lower for
ward flange of the B.S. 910 floor beam.
One airplane experienced a crack on the
right-hand side of the beam and sub
sequently experienced a crack on the lefthand side resulting in an in-flight de
pressurization.
Recently,
numerous
cracks have been detected on another
airplane. Metallurgical examination re
vealed that the cracks are caused by fa
tigue and stress corrosion. Since this
condition is likely to exist or develop in
other 727 series airplanes, the proposed
airworthiness directive would require in
planes certificated in all categories, listed
in Boeing Service Bulletin No. 727-53134, Revision 3, or later FAA approved
revisions, which have accumulated 20,000
or more pressurization cycles. Compli
ance required as indicated.
A. Inspect the lower flanges of the B.S. 910
floor beam for cracks per paragraph B below,
within the next 750 pressurization cycles
from the effective date of this AD, unless
accomplished within the last: (1) 250 pres
surization cycles if inspected per paragraph
B.l or (2) 1250 pressurization cycles if in
spected per paragraph B.2. Repeat the in
spection per paragraph B .l a t intervals not
to exceed 1000 pressurization cycles or per
paragraph B.2 a t intervals not to exceed 2000
pressurization cycles. Beams found cracked
are to be repaired per paragraph C.
B. Inspect the B.S. 910 floor beam in ac
cordance with one of the following: (1) Low
frequency eddy current inspection proced
ures of Figure 3 of Boeing Service Bulletin
No. 727-53-134, Revision 3 or later FAA ap
proved revisions. (2) Eddy current or dye
penetrant inspection procedures of Figure 2
of Boeing. Service Bulletin No. 727—53-134,
Revision 3, or later FAA approved revisions.
(3) A manner approved by the Chief, En
gineering and Manufacturing Branch, FAA
Northwest Region.
C. If cracks are detected in the beam, re
pair in accordance with Boeing Service Bul
letin No. 727-53-134, Revision 3, Or later
FAA approved revisions, or in a maimer ap
proved by the Chief, Engineering and Manu
facturing Branch, FAA Northwest Region,
prior to further flight except th at the air
plane may be flown unpressurized in ac
cordance with FAR 21.197 to a base where
the repair can be. accomplished.
D. B.S. 910 floor beams which were not in
spected for cracks per paragraph B prior to
installation of the straps or repair doubler
in accordance with Boeing Alert Service Bul
letin No. 727-53-124, or FAA approved equiv
alent, must be inspected in accordance with
paragarphs B.2 or B.S of this AD within 3000
pressurization cycles from the effective date
of this AD, unless already accomplished.
Beams found cracked are to be repaired in
accordance with paragraph C.
E. Terminating action of this AD consists
of installation of the preventive modification
straps or repair doubler in accordance with
Boeing Alert Service Bulletin No. 727-53-124,
Revision if, or equivalent approved by the
Chief, Engineering and Manufacturing
Branch, FAA Northwest Region.
F. For the purpose of complying with this
AD, subject to acceptance by the assigned
FAA maintenance inspector, the number of
pressurization cycles may be considered to
be identical to the number of landings.
G. Upon request of the operator, an FAA
maintenance inspector, subject to prior ap
proval of the Chief, Engineering and Manu
facturing Branch, FAA Northwest Region,
may adjust the repetitive inspection inter
vals specified in this AD to permit compli
ance at an established inspection period of
the operator if the request contains substan

ing legislation. As part of that legisla
[PR DOC.77-10409 Filed 4-8-77;8:45 am]
tion, the Department also supports the
concept that, subject to certain condi
tions to protect the national interest, a
state with an effective reclamation pro
gram should be allowed to administer
' and enforce its reclamation program on
lands subject to federal coal leases. The
Department’s desire for rapid passage of
national surface mining standards does
not diminish, however, the need for ef
fective reclamation on federal coal leases
prior to the passage of th at vital piece
of legislation. Until legislation has
passed, the Department will attempt to
meet this goal by vigorously enforcing
its existing regulations. The Depart
ment’s regulations, among other things,
have an effective mechanism to encour
age cooperation between the Department
of the Interior and the respective state
governments to ensure effective reclama
tion while minimizing duplication and
overlap. Under 30 CFR 211.75(a), the
Department may adopt as federal law
the requirements of a state’s reclamation
law if that state’s laws provide environ
mental protection at least as stringent
as do those of the Department of the
Interior and if the state’s regulations do
not prevent mining that is required by
the national interest. The Department
has already adopted the requirements of
Wyoming’s reclamation law under this
provision and has proposed to do so for
Montana’s reclamation standards. Adop
tion of a state’s requirements on federal
regulations under § 211.75(a) eliminates
duplication by having the state and fed
eral governments enforce the same sub
stantive performance standards. In ad
dition, under 30 CFR 211.75(b), the De
partment may enter into a cooperative
agreement with the state to regulate rec
lamation. The goal of a cooperative
agreements is to have only one entity,
wherever possible, perform regulatory
functions involving coal surface mining
reclamation. I t is wasteful, for example,
for both the Department of the Interior
and a state government to separately in
spect coal mining operations for compli
ance with the applicable standards.
These agreements give the respective
governments the opportunity to desig
nate who will perform these responsibili
ties. It is the policy of the Department’s
regulations to permit a state to perform
these functions whenever possible. The
Department has now completed coopera
tive agreements with Wyoming, North
Dakota, Utah and New Mexico and re
mains interested in seeking cooperative
•agreements with other states which reg
ulate federal lands.
The current rulemaking proposal,
adoption of Montana’s reclamation
standards as federal regulations, should
be viewed as part of the Department’s
overall effort to seek federal-state co
operation in the area of surface coal
mining reclamation. The Department, in
addition to holding the hearing, is also
reopening the comment period for this
rulemaking proposal. Comments on the
proposed adoption of Montana’s regula
tions will be accepted until May 9, 1977,
and should be sent to the Director,

ing.
SUMMARY: This notice proposes a new
regulation setting forth the format and
content requirements for semiannual re
ports to be submitted to the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) by manufacturers of auto
mobiles. The manufacturers would be
required to include in their reports the
following information regarding their
current and future model year automo
biles; the fuel economy of those auto
mobiles; the manufacturers’ efforts to
improve the fuel economy of those auto
mobiles; the manufacturers’ research,
development, and testing activities relat
ing to fuel economy; the impact of Fed
eral safety, emissions, damage suscepti
bility, and noise standards on fuel econ
omy; the impact of the fuel economy
standards on automobile safety, emis
sions, damage susceptibility, and noise;
the capital requirements for improving
fuel economy; the effects of the fuel
economy improvement efforts on auto
mobile prices ahd life cycle operating
and maintenance costs; and the com
petitive effects of the fuel economy
standards. The Motor Vehicle Inform a
tion and Cost Savings Act, as amended,
requires manufacturers to submit semi
annual reports on their plans for com
plying with the automobile fuel econ
omy standards. Further, the informa
tion in these reports is needed by the
NHTSA for establishing and modifying
automobile fuel economy standards,
evaluating manufacturers’ plans for com
plying with those standards, and prepar
ing a statutorily-required annual re
view of those standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
S tatutory B ackground
Part A of Title III of the Energy Pol
icy and Conservation Act (P.L. 94-163)
amended the Motor Vehicle Information
and Cost Savings Act by adding a new
title V entitled, “Improving automotive
efficiency.” That title (15 U.S.C. 2001 et
seq.) requires the Secretary of Trans
portation to implement a program to im
prove the fuel economy of automobiles.
The Secretary has delegated his author
ity under title V to the NHTSA Adminis
trator (41 FR 25015, June 22, 1976).
The urgency of the need to improve
automotive fuel efficiency has been clear
ly established. Domestic petroleum con
sumption has exceeded domestic petro
leum production since the end of World
W ar II. Domestic production peaked in
1970 and has since declined while do
mestic consumption was and is increas-
FEDERAL REGISTER, VO L. 4 2 , N O . 6 9 — M O N D A Y , APRIL 1 1 , 1 9 7 7
PROPOSED RULES
18868
ing at high rates. The gap between do
mestic production and consumption has
now increased to the point where over
40 percent of domestic petroleum con
sumption is currently supplied by im
ported petroleum. By 1990, the Federal
Energy Administration estimates that, in
the absence of corrective measures, a
regular annual import dependence in ex
cess of 50 percent is likely with an a t
tendant petroleum related negative trade
balance of $00 billion.
Fuels consumed for transportation are
derived virtually 100 percent from petro
leum and account for 53 percent of all
petroleum consumed in this country. The
automobile plays a critical role in this
country’s transportation scheme and
economy. I t is, and will continue to be
for the foreseeable future, the most uni
versally accepted form of personal trans
portation, accounting for 90 percent of
all personal travel. Thus, the potential
exists for major savings through im
provements in automotive fuel efficiency.
Title V divides automobiles into two
categories, passenger automobiles, and
automobiles other than passenger auto
mobiles. Automobiles in the latter cate
gory have been termed "nonpassenger
automobiles” in the proposed P art 523
an vehicle classification (41 F R 55368,
December 20, 1976). The passenger auto
mobile category includes vehicles such
as sedans and station wagons. The non
passenger automobile category includes
vehicles such as pickup trucks, vans,
campers, and general purpose vehicles
with a gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR) of less than 6,000 pounds. Fu
ture rulemaking may raise the GVWR
limit on nonpassenger automobiles to as
high as 10,000 pounds.
Section 502(a) of title V establishes
fuel economy standards for passenger
automobiles of 18 miles per gallon
(mpg), 19 mpg, 20 mpg, and 27.5 mpg for
model years 1978, 1979, 1980, and 1985
and thereafter, respectively. The Ad
ministrator is required to establish the
standards for model years 1981-84 ad
ministratively. Each of the 1981-84
standards must be set a t a level which
is the maximum feasible average fuel
economy level and which results in
steady progress toward meeting the 1985
standard. In determining maximum
feasible average fuel economy, the
NHTSA is required by section 502(e) of
title V to consider: (1) technological
feasibility, (2) economic practicability,
(3) the effect of other Federal motor
vehicle standards on fuel .economy, and
(4) the national need to conserve energy.
Manufacturers of less than 10,000
passenger automobiles worldwide an
nually can obtain an exemption under
section 502(c) from the passenger auto
mobile fuel economy standards if they
can show that their maximum feasible
average fuel economy is less than that
specified in the standards. If the Ad
ministrator (does exempt a low volume
manufacturer, he must establish an
alternative standard for that manu
facturer.
Under section 502(b) of the title, fuel
economy standards for nonpassenger
automobiles are to be established by the
Administrator for model year 1979 and
thereafter. Like the standards for pas
senger automobiles, the nonpassenger
automobile standards are to be set at
the level of maximum feasible average
fuel economy.
All of the standards under section 502
are average fuel economy standards.
They do not set minimum requirements
for individual vehicles. Instead, they set
minimum requirements for the produc
tion-weighted average fuel economy of
each manufacturer’s fleet of passenger
automobiles or nonpassenger automo
biles, as the case may be. A manufac
turer may produce automobiles whose
fuel economy is below the applicable
standard without becoming subject to
a civil penalty as long as those auto
mobiles are balanced by others of the
manufacturer’s automobiles whose fuel
economy is above the standard. Thus,
both the technology of a manufacturer’s
automobiles and its annual production
mix are important elements of the title
V fuel economy program.
All of the section 502 standards,
except the passenger automobile stand
ards for model years 1978-1980, are also
subject to amendment. Section 502(f)
of title V provides th at the standards
may be raised or lowered as long as the
Administrator observes the statutory
considerations mentioned above regard
ing maximum feasible average fuel
economy.
Section 505(a) of title V requires each
automobile manufacturer to submit
semiannual reports to the NHTSA re
garding the average fuel economy of its
automobiles for the current model year.
In these reports, the manufacturers are
required by section 502(a) to indicate
whether they will comply with the aver
age fuel economy standards for th at
model year. They are also required to
describe the steps they have taken and
the steps they plan to take to comply
with those standards and to provide such
other information as the Administrator
may require. If a manufacturer indicates
in a semiannual report th at it will
comply with the standards for the cur
rent model year and then discovers later
in th at model year before the submission
of the next semiannual report th at it
will not comply, the manufacturer is
required by section 502(a) to submit a
revised or supplementary plan showing
any additional steps that it intends to
take to improve its average fuel econ
omy. Section 505(a)(3) requires the
Administrator to prescribe rules estab
lishing the form and content of these
semiannual reports.
To apprise Congress of the progress of
the fuel economy program and the effects
of the fuel economy standards, section
502(a) (2) requires the Administrator to
submit an annual review of the stand
ards established for the current and fu
ture model years. Much of the current
model year information needed for these
reports can be obtained from the semi
annual reports required by section
505(a). To obtain information relevant
to future model year fuel economy stand
ards, as well as for other purposes, the
Administrator has been provided au
thority under section 565(c)(1) of title
V to require manufacturers to make re
ports to aid him in carrying out his du
ties under title V. The reports th at would

COAL-FIRED STEAM GENERATORS SO,
EMISSIONS
Public Hearing
On January 27, 1977, (42 FR 5121) the
Environmental Protection Agency an
nounced plans to review the new source
performance standard for sulfur dioxide
emissions from coal-fired steam genera
tors. This announcement indicated that
the Agency would conduct a public hear
ing on the subject.
Notice is hereby given of a public
hearing to be held at the following date,
time, and place: May 25 and 26, 1977,
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. e.s.t. at the
General Services Administration Audi
torium, 18th and F Streets, NW., Wash

This hearing is intended to provide op
portunity for interested persons to state
their views or to provide information as
to:
(1.) The beneficial and adverse envi
ronmental, energy, and economic impacts
of a revised new source performance
standard for coal-fired steam generators.
(2) The nature and scope of any stu
dies that should be conducted to under
stand the above impacts, and possible
sources of data and information that
would facilitate such analysis.
(3) The advantages and disadvantages
of expressing a revised new source per
formance standard in terms of percent
sulfur dioxide control, pounds per mil
lion Btu heat input, exit gas concentra
tion, or other units of measurement.
(4) The efficiency, reliability, and
availability of flue gas desulfurization
units th at are operating, under construc
tion, or planned.
The public hearing will be conducted
in two parts: The first part will con
sist of a 20 minute presentation by each
member of a four member panel repre

PESTICIDE PROGRAMS
Intent To Cancel Registrations of Pesticide
Prorducts Containing Chlordecone (Kepone) and Response to USDA and SAP
Comments on Cancellation
The Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) promulgated regulations (40 CFR
162) for the registration, reregistration,
and classification of pesticides on July 3,
1975 (40 FR 28242). Section 162.11 of the
regulations provides that a rebuttable
presumption against registration shall
arise if it is determined th at a pesticide
meets or exceeds any of the criteria for
risk set forth in § 162.11(a) (3 ). On
March 19,1976, the Deputy Assistant Ad
ministrator for Pesticide . Programs is
sued a notice of presumption against
registration (41 FR 12334) and con
tinued registration (41 F R 12333) of
pesticide products containing chlorde
cone (Kepone). On April 16,1976, an ex
tension of time for the submission of re
buttal information and other comments
was granted (41 F R 16612).
After reviewing the recommendations
of the Agency’s technical staff based on
a review and analysis of rebuttal infor
mation and other comments, and after
a complete benefit/risk evaluation of the
use of registered chlordecone products,
the Deputy Assistant Administrator for
Pesticide Programs approved a proposed
notice of intent to cancel registrations
of pesticide products containing chlorde
cone (Kepone). This proposed notice
with supporting documentation and
other material was presented to the Fed
eral Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) Scientific Advisory
Panel (SAP) and the U.S. Department
of Agriculture (USDA) on December 10,
1976, in accordance with section 6(b) of
FIFRA, as amended (86 Stat. 973, 89
Stat. 751, 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.). The fol
lowing final notice of intent to cancel
presents the Agency’s statement of rea
sons for such cancellation, the basis for
such reasons, and a detailed response to
the SAP and USDA comments on the
proposed notice of intent to cancel. The
Agency’s response to the SAP and USDA
Agency, Rm. 1019, East Tower, 401 M
St. SW., Washington, D.C. 20460.

The notice of rebuttable presumptii
was based on studies which demoi
strated that chlordecone induces onc<
genic effects in experimental mammalia
species as a result of oral exposure. T1
Agency received comments from six rei
tetrants and other interested partite
these comments contested tl
validity of the studies upon which tt
presumption was based. Several submil
sions, which did not attempt to dem
onstrate lack of risk due to chlordecone,
urged that the Agency merely allow use
of existing stocks of manufacturing
grade 25% Kepone Special Mixture
(EPA Reg. No. 218-544) already in the
hands of formulators for a predeter
mined period of time. Those comments
which did address the risk issue a t
tempted to demonstrate that, when con
sidered in connection with widespread
and commonly recognized practice of
use, chlordecone will not concentrate,
persist, or accrue to levels in man or
the environment likely to result in any
significant chronic adverse effects.

the Agency Working Group on Kepone are

These documents contain appendices of ref
erences, background information, and other
material pertinent to this notice. Where ap
propriate, the supporting materials con
tained in the position document are refer
enced in this notice.
Allied Chemical Company, holder of 12
chlordecone registrations, including the
manufacturing-use-only
registrations,
did not attem pt: to rebut the presump
tion. Rather, Allied requested that its
registrations be voluntarily cancelled
pursuant to Section 6(a) (1) of the fe d
eral Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (F1FRA) as amended (86 Stat.
973, 89 Stat. 751, 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq.). On
June 9, 1976, the Deputy Assistant Ad
ministrator for Pesticide Programs re
sponded to their request by issuing a
notice of cancellation of all Allied regis
trations for chlordecone products (41
F R 24624). According to the terms of
that notice, the registrations of those
products are now cancelled.1
As indicated above, a notice of intent
to cancel registrations of pesticide prod
ucts containing chlordecone (Kepone)
was approved after an extensive review.
This proposed notice of intent would
have cancelled the remaining registra
tions of all registered products contain
ing chlordecone. W ith regard to existing
stocks o f . chlordecone, the proposed
notice would have allowed sale, distribu
tion, and use, of all existing stocks of
“inaccessible” products,1 but would have
prohibited sale, distribution, or use of
existing stocks of “accessible” products.3
Position Document'3 (developed by the
Office of Special Pesticide Reviews) set
forth the scientific and policy rationale
for the proposed notice of intent to can
cel, and recommended that registrants
of inaccessible products be permitted to
use existing stocks of manufacturinguse-only 25% Kepone (Special Mixture)
to formulate additional inaccessible traps
for a period of three years. The proposed
notice of intent to cancel reflected this
determination. In addition, because the
June 9, 1976, section 6(a) (1) notice can
celling Allied’s registration for manu
facturing grade chlordecone did not pro
vide for use of existing stocks, a separate
notice was prepared which, in effect
would have rescinded the July 9 notice
to the extent th at the amended notice
would have allowed for use of certain
1 By letter ol February 4, 1977, the EPA
Office of Enforcement formally requested

and end-use products containing chlorde
cone, for which registration was cancelled by
the notice of June 9,1976.

registrants is more than the highest esti
mate of 537.8 pounds of actual chlordecone in these products which was used in
calculations of the oncogenic risk. Al
though the amount of chlordecone in the
25% Kepone Special Mixture is slightly
less than previously supposed, there is
far more chlordecone in end-use prod
ucts and in the formulation process than
was estimated, thereby significantly in
creasing the potential environmental
burden.
C. Use o f Existing Stocks o f Acessible
Products. The Working Group concurs
with the Scientific Advisory Panel in its
recommendation not to allow further
formulation of accessible chlordecone
products and to prohibit from the effec
tive date of cancellation all further sale,
distribution, or use of existing accessible
chlordecone products.
The Working Group is of the opinion
th at USDA’s suggestion that the safe use
of accessible chlordecone products can be
accomplished either through appropriate
label restrictions or through application
by certified applicators cannot ade
quately protect children from exposure
to chlordecone. Label changes will not
ensure that the instructions are followed
within the household. Moreover, USDA
offers no'suggestions for how EPA, either
using label changes or certified appli
cators, could ensure that accessible prod
ucts would be removed from the reach
of children and at the same time perform
their pesticidal function adequately.
Finally, label changes and use by certi
fied applicators will not protect against
general environmental contamination
nor will these restrictions affect the
safety of workers exposed during the
manufacturing process.
D. Use o f Existing Stocks o f In a cces
sible C hlordecone Products. The Work
ing Group originally selected 3 years as a
termination date for formulation, pack
aging, and sale of these products because
th a t period was considered adequate to
allow for the conversion into end-use in
accessible traps of all 25% Kepqne Spe
cial mixture intended for that purpose
and the exhaustion through sale and use
of all stocks of these end-use products.
The oncogenic effect of chlordpcone
was the only chronic health hazard as
sessed by the Agency when making this
determination. As USDA has stated in
their comments, EPA determined that
there is not a significant risk of cancer
to children via the inhalation route from
the inaccessible products. Dermal and
oral exposure was also judged to be low.
Risk analyses determined th at an ex
tremely small number of carcinomas
would likely result from any expected
ingestion of the contents of traps by
children. (See Position Document 3.)
The benefit analysis determined that
chlordecone baits did provide a minor
benefit of convenience to homeowners in
the control of ants and roaches. These
analyses were predicated, however, upon
the cancellation and eventual exhaustion
of supply of these products and not upon
the continued unlimited production,
sale and use which might result if these
products were not cancelled.
The majority of the Scientific Advi
sory Panel .agreed with the Working
Group’s recommendation to permit the
sale and use of these existing stocks ofproducts for 3 years. SAP believed, as
did the Working Group, th at even given
possible adverse health effects in addi
tion to oncogenicity, the use of these
products for that time period would not
have unreasonable adverse effects on the
environment. A minority SAP comment,
however, stated opposition to this use on
the basis of dispersal of chlordecone
from the traps by ants and roaches, and
the hazard from waste disposal of dis
carded containers in incinerators and
landfills.
Scientists of the Criteria and Evalua
tion Division, Office of Pesticide Pro
grams, and the Agency Carcinogen As
sessment Group (EPA) in their analyses
and the Working Group in its determina
tion considered these aspects of the prob
lem in reaching their conclusions.
The original recommendation of the
Kepone, Working Group permitting sale
for 3 years was based on a “worst case”
assumption that 13,772,800 of the V4 ounce inaccessible plastic or metal traps
could be formulated from the 25% K e
pone manufacturing use product ear
marked for th at purpose (assumed to be
one-half the total amount of 25% K e
pone Special Mixture estimated to be
held by formulators in addition to those
traps already m ade). The recent formulator survey reported that there are
1,405,935 already formulated inaccessible
traps ranging in weight from 1 ounce to
% ounce with one firm reporting enough
material in process to formulate an ad
ditional 1,313,280 ye -ounce inaccessible
traps. The amount of actual chlordecone
in these 2,719,215 individual traps is cal
culated to be 83 pounds. Adding the 60
pounds of actual chlordecone in the 600
pounds of 10% chlordecone held by one
formulator, this still constitutes an
amount far less than the previously es
timated 268 pounds of chlordecone which
might have been used in these products
had the Working Group’s original rec
ommendations been followed.
Registrants have been notified that
further formulation of the cancelled Al
lied 25 percent Kepone Special Mixture
is illegal. Registrant firms will be moni
tored to ensure that this formulation
does not occur.
Prevention of any further conversion
of 25 percent Kepone Special Mixture to
end-use products will thus further limit
the amount of these products available
to the public and therefore limit the
public exposure and risk.
For all of the above reasons I have
stated in this notice of intent to cancel,
I recommend that sale and use of only
those inaccessible traps already formu
lated at the effective date of cancella
tion of the^e products be permitted and
that there will be no time restriction on
sale and use of these products.

The FIFRA Scientific Advisory Panel has
reviewed the proposed notice of intent to
cancel registrations of pesticide products
containing chlordecone (Kepone) and asso-’
dated materials provided by EPA in support
of the proposal in open meetings held in Ar
lington, Virginia during December 9-10, 1976
and January 6-7, 1977. Public notice of the
meetings was published in the Federal Reg
ister on November 16, 1976 and December 21,
1976. No comments were received from tile
public although provisions were made for
submission of written statements and pres
entation of oral summaries. The Panel also
interviewed representatives from EPA who
were present during meetings as part of the
Agency briefing team on Kepone. On the
basis of consideration of all matters brought
out during the meetings and other informa
tion, the FIFRA Scientific Advisory Panel
makes the following specific comments on
the possible impact on public health and the
environment of five basic recommendations
which appear in the proposed notice of
intent:
Recommendation Number l ; Cancellation
of all registered uses of chlordecone (Ke
pone) within 30 days (page 2, paragraph 1,
sentence 2, notice of intent docum ent).
Comment.—The Panel unanimously agrees
that “continued registration and use Of
these pesticides appear to post substantial
questions of safety amounting to an unrea
sonable risk to man and the environment.’’
The Panel considers chlordecone (Kepone)
to be a carcinogen but are concerned about
other adverse health effects of this pesticide
(neuromuscular, behavioral, reproductive
and mutagenic effects) which must also be
considered in addition to the carcinogenic
effects of this agent in relation to the pos
sible adverse health effects of chlordecone
(Kepone).
Recommendation Number 2: To allow the
sale and use of existing stocks of inaccessi
ble chlordecone (Kepone) products for a
period of up to 3 years from the effective
date of cancellation (page 3, sentence 3,
notice of intent docum ent).
Comment.—A majority of the members of
the Panel concur th at the distribution, sale,
and use of inaccessible chlordecone (Kepone)
products will not have unreasonable adverse
effects on the environment.
Minority Comment.—Two members of the
. Advisory Panel are opposed .in principal to
EPA approving the further distribution and
sale of “inaccessible” 0.125% chlordecone
(Kepone) cockroach and ant baits. In the
minority opinion, this represents a still fur
ther distribution of chlordecone (Kepone)
into the environment. Such baits exist to
attract ants and cockroaches to carry the
chlordecone (Kepone) from the traps
whereby it is inevitably spread into the
immediate
environment
especially
in
kitchens with human foods. The further
distribution of chlordecone (Kepone) by in
sects and through waste disposal of dis
carded containers into incinerators and land-

fills represents an unreasonable and further
environmental spread of a highly toxic ma
terial which is carcinogenic, neurotoxic, and
a sterilant to wildlife. This delay in termi
nating the use of such a highly toxic material
sets a precedent for future EPA actions in
disposing of toxic materials which seems
undesirable.
Recommendation Number 3: To allow the
use of existing stocks Allied 25 % chlordecone
(Kepone) /Special Mixture (EPA Registration
No. 218-544) presently in the hands of formulators for the next three years for formu
lation into the above inaccessible chlor
decone (Kepone) products (page 6,. sentence
1, notice of Intent docum ent).
Comment.—A majority of the members
of the Panel did not concur with the above
recommendation. The Panel feels th at the
use of existing stocks of Allied 25% chlor
decone (Kepone) to formulate inaccessible
chlordecone (Kepone) products will have
unreasonable adverse effects on man. The
Panel is concerned about the potential ex
posure of formulators and users of these
products to an agent which has carcinogenic
and other serious adverse health effects. The
Panel recommends th at EPA Institute efforts
to recover and dispose of all nonformulated
stocks of this material in a safe manner.
Minority Comment.—One member of the
Scientific Advisory Panel concurs with the
recommendation. However, this member feels
that some risk to formulators may exist.
Therefore, these formulating processes should
be monitored by the appropriate federal
agency to provide for the safety of the formu
lators and their families.
Recommendation Number 4: Intent to
limit the quantity of chlordecone (Kepone)
enclosed bait products which can be formu
lated and distributed or sold during this 3year period to th at quantity which can be
formulated by each registrant with the sup
plies of Allied Chemical 25% chlordecone
(Kepone)/Special Mixture (EPA Registra
tion No. 218-544) on hand as of the date of
this notice (page 7, paragraph 1, sentence 3,
notice of intent docum ent).
Comment.—The Panel unanimously agrees
with this recommendation.
Recommendation Number 5: To not allow
sale, distribution or use of existing stocks of
accessible chlordecone (Kepone) products
following issuance of final order of cancel
lation (paper 7, paragraph 2, sentence 1, no
tice of intent document).
Comment.—The Panel unanimously con
curs with this recommendation.
A D D IT IO N A L C O M M E N T
In evaluting the potential adverse health
and environmental effects of chlordecone
(Kepone), the major concern of this Panel is
with the potential hazards and problems as
sociated with the disposition of the large
stocks of chlordecone (Kepone) and chlor
decone
(Kepone)-contaminated residues
which exist currently in various locations.
Because of the obvious health and environ
mental consequences of disposal of this m a
terial, the Panel asks EPA to inform them of
current and projected plans for this disposal
and to furnish progress reports to the Panel
for formal comment.
The Panel also requests that all future
FIFRA Section 6 ( b ) ( 1 ) actions which are
submitted for comment to this group contain
an appraisal of the real and potential prob
lems associated with the disposal of exist
ing stocks, wastes, etc. The Panel also re
quests specific information from EPA on how
the Agency plans to handle these problems.

In compliance with provisions of the Fed
eral Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticlde
Act (FIFRA) as Amended, sections 6(b) and
25, the United States Department of Agricul
ture has reviewed EPA’s Notice of Intent to
Cancel Pesticide Products Containing chlorodecone (Kepone). The Department lhas also
reviewed the related documents, including,
position documents and benefit and risk an
alyses accompanying the Notice of Intent to
Cancel. Even though the Department is
concerned by the apparent safety problems
associated with the manufacture of chlordec
one, the following statements are important
to an understanding of the Department’s
response.
1. The response concerns Itself only with
the biological efficacy, benefit/rlsk and expo
sure aspects of the use of chlodecone as reg
istered.
2. The voluntary cancellation by Allied
Chemical Corporation, the sole domestic pro-
18891
ducer of chlordecone, has not been a factor
In determining the Department’s response.
Under FIFRA, as Amended, our responsi
bility is in assessing the analysis of the over
all impact of regulatory decisions on the
. ability to effectively control nuisance and
damaging pest infestations as they may
impinge on the agricultural economy, while
preventing any unreasonable adverse effects
on man or the environment.
3. The Department recognizes th at ants,
roaches, and other household pests are not
of major concern in agricultural production,
but they are significant nuisances and po
tential health related pests associated with,
but not exclusively, farm buildings and farm
households. Also, the Department and the
Land Grant Colleges and Universities,
through research and extension have the
scientific expertise to evaluate control meas
ures and have the responsibility for dissem
inating safe and effective recommendations
for control of household pests irrespective
of where they may occur. An additional re
sponsibility is the preservation and main
tenance of quality of the food supply in
cluding compliance with current federal,
state, and local health standards.
4. Ants, roaches and other household pests
are a major concern in the processing of raw
agricultural commodities and in the storage
of packaged and processed foods in com
merce and in the home.

mulation is Baygon. Baygon Is registered for
use only in a bait against roaches. No al
ternatives are registered for use In a bait
formulation against ants and other house
hold pests. However, many alternatives to
Kepone baits are registered in spray and dust
formulations for control of roaches, ants, and
other household pests.
Use experience has demonstrated th at
many species of ants and roaches are more
effectively controlled by using baits as either
a supplement to other insecticides or as the
sole formulation.
Of the pesticides listed by EPA as alterna
tives for ant and roach control, lindane,
carbaryl, rotenone and toxaphene are
potential candidates for RPAR’s. Available
EPA listings of restricted use classification
for pesticides indicate th at some or all uses
of lindane, fenthion, chlorophyrifos, HCN,
chloropicrin, and methyl bromide may be
included. Should these pending actions re
sult in the loss of use through cancellation
or lack of availability to the general public
by restricted use, the impact on effective con
trol measures could be significant on the
ability of homeowners to control their own
pests. Continued regulatory action against
registered and effective pesticides for ant
and roach control can have an adverse im
pact.
The Department concurs with EPA’s anal
ysis on dollar costs to consumers of chlordecone vs. other pesticides when analyzed on
the basis of formulations presently available.
We do not believe it is meaningful, to com
pare chlordecone baits with liquid, dust, or
wettable powder formulations of other pesti
cides unless bait formulations of the others
have been prepared and evaluated under use
conditions.
The use of insecticides for controlling
household pests must be classified in the
“minor use” category. Based on current
trends in registration/reregistration, the
costs involved in generating data for new
registrations, and the uncertainty of market
potential and protection, it is unlikely th at
new compounds will reach the market un
less they also have efficacy on a major com
modity. Where efficacy has been demonstrated
and use patterns are such as to pose minimal
health and environmental rides as in the case
of chlordecone, every effort should be made
to retain such uses. Looking to the future,
this must be a consideration in planning
pest control strategies both for USDA and
EPA.
In summary, the Department wishes to
emphasize th at when used according to
label directions, chlordecone as formulated
is effective for the control of ants, roaches,
and other household pests. Established use
experience shows th at when inaccessible
containers or inaccessible placement are
us&d, the bait displays a high degree of safety
in handling with low potential for exposure
to humans and animals. Considering the
methods of use and the low concentration of
active ingredient involved, the probability of
unreasonable adverse effects on the environ
ment is remote. The fact th at other pesti
cides may be available for controlling house
hold pests, does not ameliorate the concern
th at many of these are (a) currently listed
as possible RPAR candidates, (b) designated
for restricted use, (c) may exhibit less con
venience, (d) could offer greater exposure to
humans and animals, and (e) may be less
effective. I t is important and should be rec
ognized th at resistance to chemicals does oc
cur in biological systems. Thus, there is
sound Justification for maintaining an ar
ray of safe pesticides which are properly
labeled and when used as directed on the
label do not present an unreasonable adverse
effect on the environment, including hu
mans.
H E A L T H AND E N V IR O N M E N T A L C O N S ID E R A T IO N S
The Impact on human health from the
continued use of chlordecone for ant and
cockroach control was considered by EPA
(October 5,1976) when it prepared the notice
of intent to cancel. The Department concurs
with the EPA determinations th at:
1. The use of chlordecone baits for control
of ants and cockroaches is expected to re
sult in minimal human exposure because
most traps contain only 0.125 percent active
ingredient.
2. The inaccessible traps or products, de
fined as all enclosed traps made from metal
or plastic, as well as metal stakes hammered
into the ground, offer very little human
risk. Assessment of risk indicates a low
probability of even one case of cancer re
sulting from the registered uses of 0.125 per
cent chlordecone bait.
3. Some of the inaccessible metal traps are
filled with automatic machinery and per
manently sealed. While they .provide, small
openings for the ants, they are virtually im
possible to open any further without a screw
driver or pliers.
4. If chlordecone IS used in baits accord
ing to the label for a three year period, there
is no significant risk of cancer from either
enclosed traps or accessible baits by the in
halation route.
5. The Pesticide Episode Response Branch,
Operations Division, Office of Pesticide Pro
grams, EPA summarized 56 reports involving
humans and chlordecone. "Of the 56 reports
involving humans, 52 involved children
under five years of age, two involved adults
(17-65) and two specified no age. Of the 52
episodes involving children under five, 43 oc
curred in the home. Nine did not indicate a
location. All home related episodes involved
products designed to control household in
sect pests, primarily ants and roaches. The
majority of these involved children who
found the pesticide and placed it in their
mouths. No symptoms were listed in any of
these instances. Several reports stated th at
treatment rendered was precautionary rather
than in response to symptoms,”
“Of the two episodes involving adults, one
was an attempted suicide and the other a
Job-related incident in which a man who
worked in a packaging plant developed
dermatitis on his hands. No fatalities were
reported involving the active ingredient
Kepone. The only health effect noted in any
of the reports was the dermatitis which oc
curred as stated above.”
6. “The human risk of exposure by in
halation of Kepone from inaccessible prod
ucts is Judged to be low. The dermal and oral
exposure of children is also Judged to be
low.”
In summary, the Department believes th at
the registered use of chlordeoone baits for
controlling ants, cockroaches and other
household pests presents minimal human ex
posure and hazard because:
1. The baits contain only 0.125 percent ac
tive ingredient.
2. There is minimal accessibility to baits in
the traps, especially those traps defined as in
accessible by EPA.
3. When chlordecone baits are used accord
ing to the label for a three year period, there
is no significant risk of cancer via the inhala
tion route, as concluded by EPA.
4. In the -Episode Reports involving
humans, there were no indication of poison
ing from exposure to chlordecone in any of
the reported cases of suspected exposure.
SU M M A R Y
The Department concurs with the deter
mination of the Administrator of EPA th at
“distribution, sale, and use of existing stocks
of th e listed inaccessible chlordecone prod
ucts are not inconsistent with the purposes
of FIFRA as amended and will not have un
reasonable adverse effects on the environ
ment.” As a matter of record, however, the
Department’s assessment is that the com
bination of inaccéssible packaging, the low
concentration of active ingredient, the lack
of evidence of adverse .health effects due to
exposure, and the lack of evidence to sup
port adverse environmental contamination
lends strong justification for not placing a
time period on the availability and use of
chlordecone for ant, roach and other house
hold pest control.
Important considerations in the use of
pesticides in public buildings and the home
are the safety associated with use, the accu
racy of application and potential exposure.
The use of prepackaged pesticides with pre
measured quantities of active ingredient of
fer accuracy of application, minimize the
likelihood of misuse and exposure in handling
and provide distinct advantages of safety to
humans and pets. The information prepared
by EPA, which accompanied the Notice of
Intent to Cancel, supports these favorable
characteristics for chlordecone.
In assessing benefit, the dollar cost to Con
sumers is only one aspect of evaluation;
whether placed in monetary terms or not,
consideration must be given to effectiveness
of control, safety in handling, ease of appli
cation, level of exposure, safety to humans
and animals and potential for environmental
contamination.
After considering needs in pest control,
methods of use, the present and future an
ticipated registration status of other pesti
cides, the health and environmental data
and the scientific conclusions accompanying
the Notice of Intent to Cancel, the Depart
ment must conclude th at the benefits do
exceed the risks for the use of inaccessible
bait formulations of chlordecone.
Regarding the baits packaged in an ac
cessible form, the added potential for expo
sure to children and pets is recognized. The
likelihoqd of children ingesting unenclosed
sweetened baits, both stored and as applied,
is presumed to be greater than the enclosed
baits and may be sufficient to warrant per
mitting continued use only under restrictive
labeling as to placement (inside walls and
under stationary appliances) and usé only
by certified applicators. Use information
verifies th at for the control of inaccessible
colonies of ants and for the control of cer
tain cockroach species, accessible formula
tions are most effective. Labeling changes to
assure inaccessible placement and use only
by certified applicators should be considered.

COMMISSION
[Docket No. 21181]
PATRICIA E. HOWELL
Application for Citizens Band Radio Station
License in Citizens Band Radio Service
Adopted: March 28,1977.
Released: April 5,1977.
The Chief, Safety and Special Radio
Services Bureau, has under consideration
the above-captioned application for a
Citizens Band radio station license by
Patricia E. Howell, 5 Greenwood Avenue,
Baltimore, Maryland 21206, on July 5,
1976.
1. On numerous occasions during 1973
and 1974, Howell operated a Citizens
Band radio station without a license. She
failed to heed repeated warnings from
the Commission regarding her un
licensed operation, and on August 16,
, 1974, the Commission released an Order
to Cease and Desist (SS-026-74). After
release of that Order, Howell continued
to operate. Her continued unlicensed op
eration necessitated the initiation of
criminal proceedings by the United
States Attorney for the District of Mary
land.
2. On February 13, 1975, in the United
States District Court, Maryland District,
Howell pleaded guilty to and was con
victed cf unlicensed operation of a Citi
zens Band radio station, in violation of
section 301 of the Communications Act
of 1934, as amended.
3. In a Commission letter dated De
cember 10, 1976, Howell was offered an
opportunity to submit any facts which
she believed relevant to the Commission’s
determination of whether to grant her
application or to designate it for hear
ing. She was also informed that her tem
porary authority to operate had expired,1
and that further operation by her would
be unlicensed operation, in violation of
section 301 of the Communications Act
of 1934, as amended.
4. On January 4, 1977, the Commis
sion received a reply from the applicant.
In her letter, Howell stated that she did
understand the seriousness of her past
violations. She asked what harm might
occur if she were given an opportunity to
be a licensee, and she suggested th at the
Commission could “sock it to” her if she
were “stupid enough to foul up.”
5. Howell’s repeated failure to abide
by the strictures of the Communications
Act raises a serious question as to her
qualifications to be a Commission li
censee. Her suggestion th at her license
could be revoked if she violates the rules
does not offer reassurance th at the ap
plicant is firmly committed to compli
ance with the Rules.
6. Furthermore, despite the warning
contained in 'th e Commission’s Decem
ber 10, 1976, letter to Howell, she appar
ently operated a Citizens Band radio
station on January 27,1977, without a li
cense, in violation of Section 301 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
7. In view of the findings and conclu
sions of the Order to Cease and Desist
(SS-026-74) ; the conviction of February
13, 1975, for violation of Section 301 of
the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended; and her apparently unlicensed
operation of January 27, 1977, it cannot
be determined th at a grant of Howell’s
application would serve the public inter
est, convenience, and necessity. There
fore, the Commission must designate the
application for hearing. The findings and
conclusions of the Cease and Desist
Order shall be res judicata as to the ap
plicant and shall not be relitigated in
this proceeding.
Accordingly, it is ordered, Pursuant to
section 309(e) of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, and §§ 0.331 and
1.973(b) of the Commission’s Rules that
the captioned application is designated
for hearing at a time and place to be
specified by subsequent Order, upon the
following issues:
(1) To determine the effect of the
facts and conclusions contained in the
Order to Cease and Desist, released Au
gust 16, 1974 (SS-026-74), upon the ap
plicant’s qualifications to be a licensee of
the Commission.
(2) To determine the effect of the
conviction of February 13,1975, of viola
tion of Section 301 of the Communica
tions Act of 1934, as amended, in the
United States District Court, District of
Maryland, upon the applicant’s qualifi
cations to be a licensee of the Commis
sion.
1An applicant for a Citizens Band radio
station license may obtain temporary author
ity to operate CB transmitting equipment
prior to being licensed, for a period not to
exceed sixty (60) days, by completing FCC
Form 555-B and meeting the requirements
specified therein.
(3) To determine whether the appli
cant engaged in unlicensed operation
subsequent to her February 13,1975, con
viction.
(4) To determine, in light of the evi
dence adduced under the foregoing is
sues, whether the applicant has the
requisite qualifications to be a licensee of
the Commission.
(5) To determine whether the public
interest, convenience and necessity
would be served by a grant of Howell’s
application for a Citizens Band radio
station license.
I t is fu rth er ordered, T hat to avail her
self of the opportunity to be heard, the
applicant herein, pursuant to § 1.221(c)
of the Commission’s rules, in person or by
attorney, shall within twenty days of the
mailing of this Order, file with the Com
mission in triplicate a written appear
ance stating an intention to appear on
the date fixed for hearing and to present
evidence on the issues specified in the
Order. Failure to file a written appear
ance within the time specified may result
in dismissal of the application with
prejudice.

In our September 22, 1976, Order of

questions of whether the agreements be

On the basis of information before us,
it would appear that the following agree

1 Many of these agreements were filed with
the Commission in the early days of the
Commission’s existence and were determined
not to be subject to section 15. Since the cir
cumstances surrounding these agreements
has changed and the standards for determ
ining whether a terminal agreement is sub

have evolved considerably, these agreements
need to be reexamined. Furthermore, even
though Agreement No. T-3212 was approved,
the approvability of th at Agreement should
be reexamined as a part of the whole Puerto

have not been filed for Commission action are
referred to herein by the Port’s number.

FEDERAL POWER COMMISSION
EMERGENCY NATURAL GAS ACT OF 1977
[Docket No. E77-86 ]
Emergency Order
On April 5,1977, Piedmont Natural Gas
Company, Inc. (Piedmont), filed, pur
suant to section 6 of the Emergency Nat
ural Gas Act of 1977 (A ct), Pub. L. 95-2
(91 Stat. 4 (1977)), an application for an
order authorizing Texaco, Inc. (Texaco)
and Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Cor
poration (Transco) to transport natural
gas which Piedmont has purchased under
section 6(a) of the Act. Also, on April 5,
1977, Texaco stated its willingness to as
sist Piedmont if duly ordered and au
thorized to perform such services. For
the reasons set forth below, I authorize
the requested transportation.
By contract dated March 10, 1977,
Piedmont agreed to purchase approxi
mately 1,000 Mcf per day of natural gas
from Sabine Production Company (Sa
bine) at the Lafitte Field, Jefferson
Parish, Louisiana. Piedmont will pur
chase these supplies at a price of $2.15
per MMBtu inclusive of all state and lo
cal taxes and other adjustments. This
price is fair and equitable in accordance
with Order No. 2.
Sabine will deliver the gas to Piedmont
at the points where the field tank batter
ies are connected to Texaco’s gathering
lines in the Lafitte Field. Texaco will
transport the gas through its intrastate
gathering lines to the outlet of its Para
dis Gas Processing Plant, St. Charles
Parish, Louisiana, where it will deliver
the gas to Transco. Transco will deliver
the gas to Piedmont a t existing delivery
points.
Texaco will charge Piedmont 10 cents
per Mcf for costs incurred to transport
the subject gas. Transco will charge
45.8 cents per MMBtu plus 3.8 percent
of the volumes for compressor fuel; this
rate is to be collected subject to refund
pursuant to order issude in Docket No.
E77-83 (April 4, 1977). Piedmont states
that its acceptance of Transco’s pro
posed rate is without prejudice to its
position th at Transco’s rate is not just
and reasonable.1
Texaco has not advised whether any
of the contracts covering intrastate gas
flowing through the facilities used to
transport gas for the benefit of Pied
mont prohibit the sale or commingling
of such gas with gas subject to the Nat
ural Gas Act or the termination of such
contracts as a result of such sale or com
mingling. The sale, transportation and
delivery of gas for which Piedmont seeks
approval may result in some commin
gling of interstate natural gas with
Texaco’s normal intrastate gas supplies
and with gas owned by other third
parties. This order shall be considered
as applying to all such commingled gas.
Under the provisions of section 9(b ),
(c) of Pub. L. 95-2 (91 Stat. at 9), the
suppliers of such gas, which is so com
mingled, may not terminate existing
contracts with Texaco or such other
parties or require a redetermination of
the prices provided in such contracts by
reason of this transaction. Contractual
termination, prohibition or redetermi
nation provisions in any such contracts
referred to above are not enforceable by
reason of Section 9 of Public Law 95-2
since Sabine is selling and Texaco is de
livering and transporting gas for Pied
mont pursuant to Section 6(a) of that
Act. Texaco and any third person whose
gas is commingled with Piedmont’s gas
shall refer all relevant information con
cerning any attempt to terminate exist
ing contracts or require a redetermina
tion of prices to the Administrator for
appropriate action.
According to the official files of the
Federal Power Commission, Sabine-is
not classified as a natural gas company
within the meaning of the Natural Gas
Act. Section 6(b) (i) (A) of the Act pro
vides in part that “ ttlh e provisions of
the Natural Gas Act shall not apply
* * * to any sale to an interstate pipe
line * * * under the authority of sub
section (a) or to any transportation by
an intrastate pipeline in connection with
such sale * * *.” 91 Stat. 4, 8. Texaco is
a natural gas company within the mean
ing of the Natural Gas Act. Section 6
(b) (1) (B) provides that the provisions
of the Natural Gas Act shall not apply
“to any natural gas company (within
the meaning of the Natural Gas Act)
solely by reason of any such sale or
transportation.” Thus, the sale, delivery
and transportation of this gas will not
subject Sabine, Texaco or any third per
son supplying gas to Texaco to the pro
visions of the Natural Gas Act or to reg
ulation as a common carrier under state
law.
Piedmont shall submit weekly reports
as required by Order No. 4.
Pursuant to section 6(a) of the Act,
I hereby authorize Sabine to sell to Pied
mont up to 1,000 Mcfd of n a tu ra l gas on
the terms and conditions set forth in
Piedmont’s filing in this proceeding. Pur
suant to Section 6(c) (1) of the Act, I
hereby authorize and order Texaco and
Transco to transport gas for Piedmont.
Since the parties have agreed upon the
transportation charges (subject to Pied
mont’s reservations), I find no basis for
prescribing other charges.
This order is issued pursuant to the
authority delegated to me by the Presi
dent in Executive Order No. 11969 (Feb
ruary 2, 1977), and shall be served upon
Piedmont, Texaco, Sabine, and Transco.
This order shall also be published in the

herein are subject to the continuing au

which may be issued thereunder.

CLEVETRUST CORP.
Order Approving Acquisition of Bank
CleveTrust Corporation, Cleveland,
Ohio (“Applicant”) , a bank holding com
pany within the mean of the Bank Hold
ing Company Act, has applied for the
Board’s approval under section 3(a)(3)
of the Act (12 U.S.C. 1842(a) (3 )) to ac
quire all of the voting shares (less direc
tors’ qualifying shares) of Columbus
Trust
Company,
Columbus,
Ohio
(“Bank”) , a proposed de novo bank.
Notice of the application, affording
opportunity for interested persons to
submit comments and views, has been
given in accordance with section 3(b) of
th e Act. The time for filing comments
and views has expired and the applica
tion and all comments received' have
been considered in light of the factors
set forth in section 3(c) of the Act (12
U.S.C. 1842(c)) .
Applicant, the largest banking organi
zation in Ohio, controls nine banks with
aggregate deposits of $3.1 billion, repre
senting 9.98 percent of the total deposits
in commercial banks in the State.1 Since
»Unless otherwise indicated, all banking
data are as of March 31,1976.
the application involves the acquisition
of a proposed de novo bank, consumma
tion of the proposal would not immedi
ately increase Applicant’s share of com
mercial bank deposits in Ohio.
Bank is to be located in the downtown
area of Columbus. The closest banking
office of any subsidiary of Applicant is
located 100 miles northeast of Bank’s
proposed site and none of Applicant’s
subsidiaries derives a significant amount
of business from the anticipated service
area of Bank.
Twenty-six banking organizations
presently operate in the Columbus bank
ing market.* Despite the large number of
competitors, the market is highly con
centrated. The three largest organiza
tions control 85.6 per cent of total mar
ket deposits. Approval of the proposed
transaction would provide the market
with a new competitor. Given Applicant’s
resources and the.prospects for contin
ued growth in the Columbus area, the in
troduction of Bank could eventually lead
to a reduction in the current high level
of market concentration. Accordingly,
on the basis of the facts of record, it has
been concluded th at consummation of
thé proposal would not have any adverse
effects on existing or potential competi
tion.
The financial and managerial re
sources and future prospects of Appli
cant and its subsidiary banks are re
garded as satisfactory. Bank, as a pro
posed de novo bank, has no financial or
operating history; however, its prospects
as a subsidiary of Applicant appear
favorable. Considerations relating to the
banking factors are thus consistent with
approval of the application. Considera
tions relating to the convenience and
needs of the community to be served
lend some weight toward approval of the
application. I t has been determined that
consummation of the proposal would be
in the public interest and that the appli
cation should be approved.
On the basis of the record, the appli
cation is approved for the reasons sum
marized above. The transaction shall not
be made (a) before the thirtieth calen
dar day following the effective date of
this order or (b) later than three months
after the effective date of this order,
unless such period is extended for good
cause by the Board, or by the Federal
Reserve Bank of Cleveland pursuant to
delegated authority.

of Governors, pursuant to delegated au
thority, effective April 5,1977.
ELLIS BANKING CORP.
Order Approving Acquisition of Bank and
Granting a Requested Determination
Ellis Banking Corporation, Bradenton,
Florida, a bank holding company within
the meaning of the Bank Holding Com
pany Act, has applied for the Board’s
approval under section 3(a) (3) of the
Act (12 U.S.C. 1842(a)(3)) to acquire
50.1 per cent or more of the voting shares
of the Citizens Bank of Bunnell, Bun
nell, Florida (“Bank”) .
Notice of the application, affording op
portunity for interested persons to sub
mit comments and views, has been given
in accordance with section 3(b) of the
Act. The time for filing comments and
views has expired, and the Board has
considered the application and all com
ments received in light of the factors set
forth in section 3(c) of the Act (12
U .S.C .1842(c)).
Applicant, the tenth largest banking
organization in Florida, controls 25 banks
with aggregate deposits of approximately
$692.3 million, representing approxi
mately 2.8 percent of total commercial
bank deposits in Florida.1 Acquisition of
Bank (approximately $11.8 million in de
posits) would increase Applicant’s share
of commercial bank deposits in Florida
by .05 per cent and would have no ap
preciable effect upon the concentration
of banking resources in Florida.
Bank, the larger of the-two banks in
the relevant market,* controls total de
posits of approximately $11.8 million,
representing about 63 percent of the
total deposits in commercial banking in
stitutions in the market. The closest
subsidiary bank of Applicant is located
150 miles south of Bank in a separate
banking market. Approval of the propos
al would eliminate no significant exist
ing competition between Applicant’s sub
sidiaries and Bank. Common ownership
and control of Bank and the only other
bank in the relevant market has led to
common senior operating management
and numerous director interlocks. B e
cause of this relationship, the two bank
ing institutions do not presently com
pete with each other to any meaningful
extent. If the subject proposal is ap
proved, Applicant has indicated that the
present relationship would be terminated
and Bank would become independent and
an alternative source of banking services
in the relevant market. On the basis of
the facts of record, the Board concludes
that competitive considerations are con
sistent with, and lend some weight to
ward, approval of the application.

Applicant has indicated that it will
provide Bank with specialized lending
expertise and assist it in securing loan
participations. Furthermore, affiliation
with Applicant will provide Bank with
access to Applicant’s centralized audit
ing, accounting, investment counseling,
and management training program.
Considerations relating to the .con
venience and needs of the community to
be served, therefore, lend some weight to
ward approval of the application. It is
the Board’s judgment that the proposed
acquisition would be in the public in
terest and that the application should be
approved.
In connection with this proposal, Ap
plicant will offer two types of debt in
struments in exchange for Bank’s stock:
a seven-year maturity convertible deben
ture and a ten-year maturity noncon
vertible debenture. Florida National
Banks of Florida, Inc. (“Florida Na
tional”), Jacksonville, Florida, will ex
change the 50.1 per cent of the voting
shares it now holds in Bank for the tenyear maturity nonconvertible debentures
Applicant is offering.® Under section 2(g)
(3) of the Act, shares transferred after
January 1, 1966, by a bank holding com
pany directly or indirectly to any trans
feree that is indebted to the transferor
are deemed to be indirectly owned or
controlled by the transferor unless the
Board, after opportunity for hearing, de
termines that the transferor is not in
fact capable of controlling the trans
feree. On the basis of the facts of record,
including submissions from both Appli
cant and Florida National, the Board has
determined, pursuant to section 2(g) (3)
of the Act (12 U.S.C.' 1841(g )(3)), that
Florida National will not in fact be ca
pable of controlling Applicant.4 Further
more, upon consummation of this trans
action, Florida'National will terminate
its interest in Bank, as required by the
Board’s Order of July 29, 1976.
On the basis of the record' the appli
cation is approved for the reasons sum3 Officers of Florida National acquired a
controlling interest in Bank in 1974. In its
Order of July 29, 1976, denying Florida Na
tional’s application to acquire control of
Bank from its officers, the Board found th at
Florida National had violated the prior
approval requirements of section 3 of the
Act, and required Florida National to divest
of all direct or indirect interest in Bank (62
Fed. Res. Bulletin 696) . The subject applica
tion represents the means by which Florida
National seeks to comply with the Board’s
Order.
4 Among the facts of record upon which
the Board bases this determination, the
Board notes, in particular, th at Florida Na
tional has no directors or officers in common
with Applicant. Florida National will hold
nonconvertible debentures totalling less than
5 per cent of Applicant’s total liabilities and
Florida National’s Board of Directors has re
solved that it “will not exercise or attempt
to exercise any degree or manner of control of
Ellis Banking Corporation as long as Florida
National is the owner or holder of the tenyear maturity nonconvertible debentures of
Ellis”. Furthermore, there are' no agreements
or understandings between Florida National
and Ellis whereby Florida National would re

changed.

The Federal Trade Commission has ac
cepted an agreement to a proposed consent
order from Astor-Scott, Inc., a corporation,
and Nelson Torelli, individually and as an
officer of said corporation.
The proposed consent order has been
placed on the public record for sixty (60)
days for reception of comments by interested
persons. Comments received during this
period will become part of the public rec
ord. After sixty (60) days, the Commission
will again review the agreement and the
comments received and will decide whether
it should withdraw from the agreement or
make final the agreement’s proposed order.
This matter concerns Astor-Scott, Inc., a
Florida corporation and its sole stockholder
and officer, Nelson Torelli of Fort Lauder
dale, Florida, engaged in the past in mail
order merchandising of a Vitamin E oil prod
uct called\Exogen Vitamin E Oil and an
insecticide called Phantom Roach Trap and
Powder; and currently engaged in mail order
marketing of jewelry, books and an indoor
television antenna product. The complaint
charges the parties with unfair and decep
tive acts and practices 4n several respects:
(1) Falsely and without competent sub
stantiation representing the effectiveness of
the Exogen Vitamin E Oil product in the
prevention, improvement, treatm ent or
relief of skin faults or conditions, obesity, or
other appearance or health problems; (2)
falsely and without competent substantia
tion representing the effectiveness, results
of use, quality features, performance charac
teristics or product composition of the in
secticide product, the Phantom Roach Trap
and Powder.
The consent order requires respondents (1)
to stop the use of any claim of product per
formance, effectiveness, performance charac
teristics or composition unless the claims
are substantiated, factually and fully by
competent data or tests; (2) to maintain
such data or tests in written form and make
such material available for compliance in
spection.
The purpose of this analysis is to facilitate
public comment on the proposed order and
it is not intended to constitute an official
interpretation of the agreement and the
proposed order or to modify in any way their
terms.

248 new fellowships and 105 continua
tion fellowships are being supported at
73 approved institutions by a fiscal year
1976 appropriation of $2,000,000.« There
has not yet been a final appropriation
for fiscal year 1977, though it is antici
pated that approximately $2,000,000 will
be available for the program. It is an
ticipated th at this money will be used
to award about 350 fellowships at ap
proximately 70 institutions.
An applicant institution will apply for
a specified number of fellowships.. The
Commissioner proposes, in the notice of
proposed rulemaking for this program,
to give continuing students who are
making satisfactory progress in their
courses of study in 1976-77 high priority
for reappointment to a fellowship in
1977-78. It is expected that about half
of the 248 currently supported fellows
will continue on into 1977-78. The Com
missioner also proposes to pay a fellow
ship stipend of $3,600 per year, a de
pendency allowance of $300 per year for
each dependent; and an educational al
lowance of $3,600' per fellow each year
to the institution.
The Education Amendments of 1976
(Pub. L. 94-482) authorize the Commis
sioner to re-award fellowships which' are
vacated prior to the qjid of the period for
which they were awarded. This means
that vacated fellowships may now be re
filled with other eligible students nomi
nated by the institution.

comment period. Submitted by Congress
man Richardson Preyer (N.C.), as
Chairman of the Government Informa
tion and Individual Rights Subcommit
tee of the Committee on Government
Operations of the House of Representa
tives, Congress of the United States, the .
comment referred to four provisions in
the rules. Copies of the comment were
sent to members of the Board of Direc
tors of the Corporation and were re
viewed and discussed by the Board at its
meeting in Washington, D.C. on March
30, 1977. The Board’s reaction to the
comments and respective changes, where
any were indicated, are as follows:
1. Congressman Preyer suggested that
Rule 4 ( f ) , which describes the manner in
which information about Board meet
ings will be provided to the general pub
lic, might include other means of inform
ing the public, such as mailing notices
to persons on either a general mailing
list or a list maintained for those desir
ing to receive such material. The rule as'
published requires the Secretary of the
Corporation to release announcements
of Board meetings to the press, post each
such announcement on the bulletin
board at the Corporation’s principal
office, provide copies for interested mem
bers of the public and staff, and submit
each such announcement for publica
tion in the F ederal R egister . In con
nection with the first of these means
of informing the public, the Corpora
tion’s Department of Public Affairs
maintains a mailing list to which all the
Corporation’s press releases are mailed.
While the Board expressed the view th at
adequate means of public information
have been provided, it indicated th at the
mailing list maintained by the Depart
ment of Public Affairs could include the
names of any members of the general
public who ask to receive notices of fu
ture meetings of the Board. Rule 4(f)
is accordingly being amended to provide
the public with specific advice to this
effect.
2. Congressman Preyer noted that
while the Act does not specifically estab
lish any right on the part of the public
to record what transpires at the open
meetings, the right to so so would appear
to be a material concomitant of the right
of observation as long as note taking or
recording does not disrupt the meeting.
He recommended that Rule 5a. be
changed to eliminate the prohibition on
the use of electronic or other recording
devices. The Board agreed with the com
ment and directed th at the Amendment
to the By-Laws be changed accordingly.
3. Congressman Preyer’s third com
ment is as follows :
Rule 6(a) includes the fact that a meet
ing coming within a specific exemption is to
he open nevertheless when the public inter
est so requires. However, it should he
amended to make it clear th at thè decision
to close a meeting has two distinct steps :
first, the Corporation must determine wheth
er the discussion comes within one of the
specific exemptions: and second, if the dis
cussion is determined to be exempt, the Cor
poration must consider and determine
whether the public interest nevertheless re
quires th at the meeting be open. The pro
posed rule seems to suggest th at the Corpo
ration need consider the public interest issue
only if it chooses to, whereas the Act con
templates th at the public interest issue will
be considered in each instance where the
Corporation determines th at a discussion
conges within a specific exemption.
Rule 6a. directly reflects the language
of the Act. In stating the rule in this
manner, the Board did not believe that
it could choose whether or not to con
sider the public interest, as the comment
indicates may have been the case. The
Board originally was of the view that it
would consider the public interest issue
in determining whether to exercise its
discretion to make use of the permissive
exemptions provided in the Act. The
Board indicated th at Rule 6a. should be
clarified accordingly.
4.
The fourth comment suggested that
Rule 7. be clarified to reflect that the
General Counsel’s certification must be
made before a meeting may be closed.
The Board agreed with the comment and
the rule is being clarified accordingly.
The rules, as published on March 11,
1977, contained one misspelling and the
technical omission of one word, both of
which are corrected as noted below.
In accordance with the foregoing,
notice is hereby given that Appendix A
to the By-Laws of the Corporation are
amended as follows:
Rule 4f. is amended by adding the fol
lowing sentence a t the end thereof : “Any
member of the public who desires to re
ceive notices of meetings of the Board
of Directors shall advise the Secretary
in writing. The Secretary will include
the name and mailing address of any
such member of the public on the mail
ing list maintained by the Corporation’s
Public Affairs Department.”
*
*
*
*
*
Rule 5a. is amended by deleting the
words “electronic or other recording de
vices or” in the last sentence thereof.
This subsection is further amended by
adding the following sentence at the end
thereof: “T h e use of electronic or other
recording devices is permitted where it
does not interfere with or disrupt the
orderly conduct of the meeting.”
*
*
*
*■
*
Rule 6a. is amended by inserting after
the words “Except in a case where the
members of the Board of Directors find
th at the public interest requires other
wise,” the following new language:
“which finding shall be made as a part
of any decision to close a meeting or a
portion of a meeting on the basis of any
applicable exemptions contained in the
Act or in these rules, * * * ”
*
*
*
*
*
Rule 7. The first clause of Rule 7 is
amended to read as follows: “Before any
meeting may be closed pursuant to subparagraphs (1) through (10) of para
graph a. of Rule 6, * * *”
Technical corrections: In clause (B)
of Rule 4d., change “earlier” to read
“earliest”; and in Rule 7, insert the
word “in” a t the beginning of the third

HOC
WORKING
GROUP OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE ON
THE CLINCH RIVER BREEDER REACTOR
Meeting
In accordance with the purposes of
sections 29 and 182b. of the Atomic E n
ergy Act (42 U.S.C, 2039, 2232b.) an
Ad Hoc Working Group of the ACRS
Subcommittee on the Clinch River
Breeder Reactor will hold a meeting on,
April 27, 1977 in Room 1046, 1717 H St.
NWi, Washington, D.C. 20555. The Ad
visory Committee on Reactor Safeguards
will review the application of the U.S.
Energy Research and Development Ad
ministration, the Tennessee Valley Au
thority, and the Project Management
Corporation (hereafter referred to as
the CRBR Project Office) for a permit
to construct the Clinch River Breeder
Reactor. The purpose of this m6eting of
the Ad Hoc Working Group will be to
gather information on site related con
siderations for the Clinch River Breeder
Reactor and to discuss the NRC Site
Suitability Report for the Clinch River
Breeder Reactor, dated Miarch 4, 1977.
The agenda for subject meeting shall
be as follows:
Wednesday, A pril 27, 1977— 8:30 a .m . U n t il
the Conclusion op B usiness
The Working Group, with any of its con
sultants who may be present, will meet in
open Executive Session to discuss the agenda
for the meeting and to explore preliminary
opinions regarding areas Jo be reviewed and
recommendations to the full Committee.
At the conclusion of the Executive Ses
sion, the Working Group will meet in open
session with representatives of the NRC
Staff, the CRBR Project Office, and its con
sultants, to discuss matters pertinent to
this review.
It may be necessary for the Working Group
to hold one or more closed sessions for the
purpose of exploring with the NRC Staff and
Applicant matters involving proprietary in
formation. -
I have determined, in accordance with
Subsection 10(d) of Public Law 92-463,
that it is necessary to conduct the above
closed sessions to protect proprietary in
formation (5 U.S.C. 552 b (c) (4 )).
Practical considerations may dictate
alterations in the above agenda or sched
ule. The Chairman of the Working group
is empowered to conduct the meeting in
a manner that, in his judgment, will fa
cilitate the orderly conduct of business,
including provisions to carry over an incompleted open session from one day to
the next. The Advisory Committee on Reactor
Safeguards is an independent group es
tablished by Congress to review and re
port on each application for a construc
tion permit and on each application for
an operating license for a reactor facil
ity and on certain other nuclear safety
matters. The Committee’s reports be
come a part of the public record. Al
though ACRS meetings are ordinarily
open to the public and provide for oral
or written statements to be considered
as a part of the Committee’s informa
tion gathering procedure concerning the
health and safety of the public, they are
not adjudicatory type hearings such as
are conducted by the Nuclear Regula
tory Commission’s Atomic Safety & Li
censing Board as part of the Commis
sion’s licensing process. ACRS meetings
do not normally treat matters pertain
ing to environmental impacts outside
the safety area.
With respect to public participation in
the open portion of the meeting, the fol
lowing requirements shall apply:
(a) Persons wishing to submit written
statements regarding the agenda may
do so by providing a readily reproducible

DAYTON POWER AND LIGHT CO.
Application and Opportunity for Hearing
A pril 8, 1977.
Notice is h ereby given, That the Dayton Power and Light Company (the
“Company”) has filed an application un
der clause (ii) of Section 310(b) (1) of
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the
“Act”) for a finding that the trusteeship
of Irving Trust Company under an in
denture heretofore qualified under the
Act, and one not to be so qualified, is not
so likely to involve a material conflict of
interest as to make it necessary in the
public interest or for the protection of
investors to disqualify Irving Trust Com
pany from acting as trustee under the
qualified indenture.
Section 310(b) of the Act provides in
part that if a trustee under an indenture
qualified under the Act has or shall ac
quire any conflicting interest, it shall
within ninety days after ascertaining
that it has such conflicting interest
either eliminate such conflicting inter
est or resign.
Subsection (1) of such Section pro
vides, in effect, with certain exceptions,
that a trustee under a qualified inden
ture shall be deemed to have a conflict
ing interest if such trustee is trustee
under another indenture under which
any other securities of the same issuer
are outstanding. However, under clause
(ii) of subsection (1), there may be ex
cluded from the operation of this provi
sion another indenture under which
other securities of the issuer are out
standing, if the issuer shall have sus
tained the burden of proving, on appli
cation to the Commission and after op
portunity for hearing thereon, th at
trusteeship under such qualified inden
ture and such other indenture is not so
likely to involve a material conflict of
interest as to make it necessary in the
public interest or for the protection of
investors to disqualify such trustee from
acting as trustee under the qualified
indenture.
The Company alleges that: (1) Irving
Trust Company is presently acting as
trustee under an Indenture of Mortgage
dated as of October 1, 1935, between
Irving Trust Company as Trustee (the
“Mortgage Trustee”) and the Company
as amended by twenty supplemental in
dentures, pursuant to which $458,000,000
principal amount of the Company’s F irst
Mortgage Bonds
(“First Mortgage
Bonds”) are issued and outstanding, as
of December 31,1976. It is presently con
templated that Irving Trust Comfihny
will also act as Trustee (the “Pollution
Control Trustee”) under an indenture
(the “Pollution Control Indenture”) to
be dated as of April 15, 1977, between it
and the Ohio Water Development Au
thority (the “Authority”) , a body politic
and corporate and political subdivision
of the State of Ohio, whereby the Au
thority will issue and sell approximately
$14,000,000 of its Collateralized Pollu
tion Control Revenue Bonds 1977 Series
A Due 2007 (The Dayton Power and
Light Company P ro ject). This indenture
will not be qualified pursuant to the
terms of the Act.
(2) The Authority’s revenue bonds
are being issued to finance the cost of
certain waste water facilities (the
“Project”) to be acquired by the Com
pany for its F. M. T ait and O. H. Hutch
ings Electric Generating Stations in
Montgomery County, Ohio, and for the
J . M. Stuart Electric Generating Station
in Adams and Brown Counties, Ohio, as
to which the Company owns an undi
vided 35% interest as tenant in com
mon with, other public utilities. The pro
ceeds of the sale of such revenue bonds
will be loaned by the Authority to the
Company to finance the cost of such
waste water facilities, pursuant to a
Loan Agreement between the Authority
and the Company to be dated as of April
15, 1977 (the “Loan Agreement”). The
revenue bonds will be payable solely from
the revenues derived from the repayment
by the Company of such loan. Such re
payment will be made over the life of the
revenue bonds, secured by a pledge of the
Company’s New Mortgage Bonds (the
“New Mortgage Bonds”) to be issued
under the twenty-first supplemental in
denture to the October 1, 1935, inden
ture. This supplemental indenture will
not be qualified under the Act.
(3) The Company’s New Mortgage
Bonds will be isued in an aggregate prin
cipal amount equal to, bear interest at a
rate corresponding to, and have the same
maturity and redemption provisions as
the Authority’s revenue bonds. The New
Mortgage Bonds will rank pari passu
with all First Mortgage Bonds issued and
outstanding under the October 1, 1935,
indenture and all its supplements.
(4) The Authority will assign to Irving
Trust Company as Pollution Control
Trustee all its rights and interest in and
to the New Mortgage Bonds and, in the
manner and to the extent provided in. the
Pollution Control Indenture, its rights
under the Loan Agreement. The Pollu
tion Control Trustee may not transfer
the New Mortgage Bonds except to a
successor trustee under the relevant in
denture. Such Trustee will have no lien
on or other interest in the Project, and
the obligation to make payments in re
spect of the revenue bonds will be se
cured by no collateral other than the
New Mortgage Bonds.
(5) It is believed th at since the reve
nue bonds are payable solely from reve
nues secured by the New Mortgage Bonds,
the indenture to a “collateral trust in
denture” with respect to which an excep
tion to the provisions of Section 310(b)
of the Act is provided by clauses (1) (A)
and (1) (B) thereof. In the event that the
Company fails to make the required loan
repayments, the New Mortgage Bonds
are the only collateral.
The obligations of the Company under
the mortgage indenture are secured by a
lien on substantially all the Company’s
fixed property and franchises, subject
only to excepted encumbrances per
mitted by that indenture.
The Company has waived notice of
hearing, hearing, and any and all rights
to specify procedures under the Rules of
Practice of the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with this
matter.
For a more detailed statement of the
matters of fact and law asserted, all per
sons are referred to said application,
which is a public document, on file in the
Office of the Commission’s Public R ef
erence Section, at 1100 L Street, N.W.,

MOTOR CARRIER BOARD TRANSFER
PROCEEDINGS
The following publications include
motor carrier, water carrier, broker, and
freight forwarder transfer applications
filed under sections 212(b), 206(a), 211,
312(b), and 410(g) of the Interstate
Commerce Act.
Each application (except as otherwise
specifically noted) contains a statement
by applicants that there will be no sig
nificant effect on the quality of the hu
man environment resulting from ap
proval of the application.
Protests against approval of the ap
plication, which may include a request
for oral hearing, must be filed with the
Commission on or before May 11, 1977.
Failure seasonably to file a protest will
be construed as a waiver of opposition
and participation in the proceeding. A
protest must be served upon applicants’
representative(s), or applicants (if no
such representative is named) , and the
Protestant must certify that such service
has been made.
Unless otherwise specified, the signed
original and six copies of the protest
shall be filed with the Commission. All
protests must specify with particularity
the factual basis, and the section of the
Act, or the applicable rule governing the
proposed transfer which protestant be
lieves would preclude approval of the
application. If the protest contains a
request for oral hearing, the request
shall be supported by an explanation as
to why the evidence sought to be pre
sented cannot reasonably be submitted
through the use of affidavits.

Intent to Issue Proposed Rules
Notice is hereby given that the Assist
ant Secretary for Health, with the ap
proval of the Secretary of Health, Edu
cation, and Welfare, intends to propose
regulations revising Part 59 of Title 42,
Code of Federal Regulations, to imple
ment the amendments to Title X of the
Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 300
et seq.) enacted by Public Law 94-63.
This Notice presents a description of the
amendments, discusses possible ap
proaches to implementing then, and in
vites comments and suggestions from all
interested parties on how they should be
implemented.
1. Section 204(a) of the Public Law
94-63 amended section 1001(a) of the
Public Health Service Act (“Act”) to
require that the range of family plan
ning methods to be offered by family
planning projects include natural family
planning methods. Since the meaning of
the term “natural family planning meth
ods” is well understood in the family
planning field and the requirement re
flects current program policy, the De
partment proposes to implement the
statutory language simply by amending
the regulations where appropriate to re
flect it.
.* 2. Section 204(b) of Public Law 94-63
amended section 1001(b) of the Act to
provide that local and regional entities
are to be assured the right to apply for
Title X grants and contracts and requires
the Secretary to “by regulation fully pro
vide for and protect such right.” The
legislative history of this section sug
gests that Congress was primarily con
cerned that the Secretary not systemati
cally require statewide consolidation of
grantees and that, in cases where such
consolidation occurs, former grantees
which are part of the consolidated proj
ect have the right to participate in the
decisionmaking of the consolidated
grantee as it affects their operations.
The Secretary feels that the present
§ 59.3 gives local and regional entities full
right to apply for Title X grants. Further,
the congressional concern that the Secre
tary not systematically require further
consolidation relates, solely to the inter
nal operations of the Department. Ac
cordingly, the Secretary does not plan to
revise this section of the regulations in
reference to section 204(b). Iri response
to the congressional concern, though, the
Secretary will not systematically under
take to accomplish such consolidation.
However, it is felt that the regulations
should be revised to reflect the concern
expressed in the legislative history that

ACTION: Proposed rule.
SUMMARY: This decision recommends
certain changes in the New York-New
Jersey Federal milk marketing order
(Order 2), based on industry proposals
considered a t a public hearing in Feb
ruary 1976. The principal changes would
adjust the prices for milk throughout
the production area to more nearly re
flect the costs incurred by handlers in
assembling milk from farms and trans
porting it to plants for processing. An
other change would institute a late-payment charge on overdue payments by
handlers to the market administrator
to encourage prompt payments for milk.
Also, a number of minor changes would
be made in the classification of milk
according to its use to reflect current
marketing practices.

essential to the long-run interests of
producers in the New York-New Jersey
market.
With respect to the alleged intramar
ket competitive problems, it was claimed
that the impact of the increased haul
ing costs on Class I distributors in the
major metropolitan area has varied, de
pending on each distributor’s source of
milk. Witnesses contended that the
metropolitan area handlers who rely on
supply plant milk are experiencing much
higher procurement costs than those re
ceiving milk at their distributing plants
directly from farms. This, they claimed,
is because of the costs associated with
reloading milk at supply plants and mov
ing it long distances to the metropolitan
area, plus using a transportation differ
ential rate under the order that does not
reflect actual hauling costs.
Cooperative associations and proprie
tary handlers offered a number of pro
posals which they believed would mini
mize the competitive problems of which
they complained. Six major proposals
dealing with this issue were made by two
principal producer organizations in the
market. The basic thrust of the pro
posals was to shift the assembly and
hauling costs for milk from handlers to
producers. Various modifications of these
proposals were proposed by several pro
prietary handlers to accommodate their
individual operations. A number of other'
producer groups in the market, includ
ing a third m ajor producer organization,
opposed any changes in the order rela
tive to this issue.
Two of the six m ajor proposals relate
to the recovery of costs associated with
picking up farm bulk tank 'milk and
moving it to the first plant of receipt.
One proposal would provide handlers
with a 15-cent per handredweight pool
credit on all such milk. A 10-cent pool
credit currently applies just on Class IT
bulk tank milk. The other proposal would
increase the maximum negotiable tank
truck service charge, which is now 10
cents per hundredweight, to 25 cents. To
gether, these two proposals would make
it possible for handlers to recover up to
40 cents per hundredweight of the farm to-first plant hauling cost for bulk tank
milk—15 cents through the pool credit
and the remainder through negotiations
with the producer or his cooperative.
Proponents supported a pool credit for
handlers of farm bulk tank milk as an
appropriate mechanism for recovering
from producers a portion of the farm -toplant hauling costs. They maintained
that a 15-cent credit would reflect the
minimum cost incurred by handlers in
picking up bulk tank milk at the farm.
They took the view that a pool credit
could be easily administered, that it
would avoid confusion among producers
since it would affect all bulk tank pro
ducers uniformily, and that it would
contribute to market stability.
Spokesmen for the proposals indicated
that for most handlers the 15-cent pool
credit would not sufficiently reimburse
handlers for the farm -to-plant hauling
costs incurred and that additional
amounts should be recoverable through
a negotiated charge to producers. It was
contended th at setting the maximum
negotiable charge a t 25 cents per
hundredweight would permit handlers
to recover most, if not all, of such costs.
Witnesses stated that limiting negoti
ated deductions for hauling to 25 cents
per hundredweight is necessary to en
sure that handlers do not negotiate de
ductions in excess of actual hauling
costs. Also, it was claimed th at a limit,
compared to unlimited deductions, would
provide an incentive for handlers to a s
semble milk in the most efficient man
ner.
Two other major proposals relate to
the recovery of costs for long-haul ship
ments of bulk milk. One proposal would
increase the present 1.2-cent transporta
tion differential rate to 1.5 cents per
hundredweight for each ID-mile zone.
The other would provide a 25-cent per
hundredweight pool credit to handlers
on Class I milk originating beyond the
1-140 mile zone and transferred in bulk,
directly from farms or from plants, to
plants located within the 1-65 mile zone.
In combination, these proposals are in
tended to permit handlers to recover the
average cost of shipping bulk milk from
country locations to distributing plants
in the m ajor metropolitan areas for
Class I use.
In support of these proposals, witnesses
claimed th at the long-distance hauling
rates now being charged in the market
reflect a “variable” hauling cost of 1.8
cents per hundredweight per 10 miles,
and “fixed” hauling costs totaling 19
cents per hundredweight.1 Although sup
porting the 1.8-cent variable rate, pro
ponents indicated th at their proposal
was couched in terms of a 1.5-cent vari
able rate since this is the rate commonly
reflected in other orders. For a 200-mile
shipment, such as from the base zone
to the New York City area, witnesses in
dicated that a 1.5-cent transportation
differential rate would cover 30 cents of
the average 55-cent actual hauling cost
for this distance.
Proponents contended th at the total
cost of long-distance shipments, and not
just the variable cost, should be reflected
in the order’s pricing provisions if the
metropolitan area handlers are to be
competitive with handlers in other mar
kets. Accordingly, it was proposed that
handlers be given a 25-cent “metropoli
tan transfer credit” for the purpose of
covering th at portion of the 55-cent
hauling cost for a 200-mile shipment not
reflected in the adjustment of prices for
location, i.e., 25 cents. The 25-cent credit
would cover the remaining 6 cents of the

actual 36-cent variable cost for 200 miles
not covered by the 1.5-cent transporta
tion differential rate, plus the 19-cent
fixed cost. Proponents noted that if the
zone differentials were to be established
a t 1,8 cents per 10 miles a metropolitan
transfer credit reflecting only the 19cent fixed cost would be appropriate.
At the hearing, proponents modified
their initial proposal to provide for a
“feathering” of the metropolitan trans
fer credit. They suggested that a credit
of 10 cents per hundredweight be given
for milk transferred to metropolitan
area plants from the 91-100 mile zone,
15 cents for the 101-120 mile zone, 20
cents for the 121-140 mile zone, and 25
cents for milk shipped from more distant
areas.
Another of the m ajor proposals would
increase the present 5 -cent direct de
livery differential to 10 cents per hun
dredweight and would extend the zone of
application to include all pool milk re
ceived from farms within the 1-110 mile
zone. Witnesses indicated that this pro
posed change is intended to more nearly
equate the cost of nearby milk moved
directly from farms to plants in the
major metropolitan area for Class I use
with the cost of Class I milk obtained by
handlers from country plants. I t was
claimed th at the handler receiving
direct-ship milk avoids reloading costs
that attach to supply plant milk. I t was
suggested that in view of Current reload
ing costs the direct -delivery differential
perhaps should be as much as 13 cents
per hundredweight. A witness also indi
cated that a larger direct delivery dif
ferential payable to the nearby pro
ducers would partially offset the
incentive th at such producer^ now have
for shifting to neighboring markets
where higher blend prices are being paid.
The sixth m ajor proposal would re
quire distributing plants located outside
the 1-65 mile zone to pay to the pool an
“upstate fluid differential” of 10 cents
per hundredweight on all Class I milk
received from farms located outside the
1-110 mile zone. I t was indicated th at
such distributing plants normally receive
milk directly from producers and thus do
not experience the reloading costs in
curred by many of the distributors in the
major metropolitan area of the market
who rely on supply plant milk. The up
state fluid differential, it was claimed,
would tend to equalize the procurement
costs of those handlers in the outlying
areas of the market with the cost in
curred by competing handlers in the
major metropolitan area.
At the hearing and in their* briefs,
proprietary handlers took varying posi
tions with respect to the six major pro
posals of the producer groups. As would
be expected, handlers generally sup
ported those proposals—such as the 15cent pool credit on bulk tank milk and
the 25-cent negotiable tank truck serv
ice charge—that would lower their pro
curement costs and thus enhance their
competitive position in the retail m ar
ket. Some preference was expressed,
however, for either holding the nego-

tiable charge at the present maximum
level of 10 cents or eliminating the
charge and increasing the pool trans
portation credit to something more than
the 15 cents proposed by cooperatives.
It was claimed th at negotiable charges
are an unsatisfactory arrangement since
not all handlers in the market negotiate
such charges, thus causing disparate
procurement costs among handlers, and
because producers resist such charges.
Handlers also expressed support for a
higher transportation differential ••rate
under the order, although they were not
in agreement on the specific rate. Some
handlers urged the 1.8-cent rate pro
posed by cooperatives, while others fa
vored a 1.5-cent rate on the basis th at
any higher rate would be out of line with
location adjustment rates generally ap
plicable under other Federal orders.
Several handlers opposed the adoption
of an “upstate fluid differential” on the
basis th at the affected distributing
plants were having no difficulties in a t
tracting adequate milk supplies and that
the differential thus would unjustifiably
increase the cost of Class I milk at such
plants. Opposition was expressed also
against the use of a direct delivery dif
ferential. I t was claimed that the dif
ferential adds to the misalignment of
milk costs between Order 2 handlers and
handlers in the Middle Atlantic Order
4 market.
There was considerable disagreement
among handlers regarding the coopera
tives’ proposed “metropolitan transfer
credit.” This stemmed largely from the
varying impact that such a credit would
have on different handlers because of
their location or method of operation.
The various handler positions included
having no such credit, having it apply to
transfers of both packaged and bulk
milk, “feathering” the credit, precluding
the movement of any milk subject to the
credit back into the outlying areas of
the market, and reducing the Class I
price to reflect transportation costs
rather than applying a credit.
Several handlers took the position that
the problems of intermarket competition
arising from unequal procurement costs
could best be resolved by replacing the
Order 2 farm point pricing arrangement
with the plant pricing concept used
under the other orders. In this regard,
one group of handlers proposed that milk
from a producer be priced a t the pool
plant located nearest the producer’s
farm. A corollary proposal would permit
handlers to negotiate with producers or
their cooperatives a tank truck service
charge of up to 30 cents per hundred
weight. '
Another handler, who operates a dis
tributing plant in northern New Jersey,
urged th at milk from producers be priced
at the first plant where it is received, as
under the Middle Atlantic order. Accord
ing to the handler’s spokesman, such ac
tion, along with an increase in the trans
portation differential rate to 1.8 cents
per 10 miles, would effectively deal with
three m ajor problems th at he identified.
The first was the misalignment of costs
for Class I milk between Orders 2 and 4.
He contended th at the handler he was
representing has had to lower prices to
remain competitive with Order 4 han
dlers who distribute milk in the North
Jersey area. Such reductions, he claimed,
have spread to other areas of the Order 2
market and thus have, resulted in cha
otic conditions, reduced margins, elimi
nation of profits, reduced volume, and
higher unit costs for Order 2 plants.
These conditions occurred, in his view,
because the differing pricing provisions
of the two orders have resulted in un
equal changes in the cost of milk to
handlers during the time of rapid infla
tion of milk transportation and han
dling costs.
A second problem th at would be allevi
ated under plant pricing, according to
the witness, is th at inflation also has
caused a misalignment of Class I prices
within the Order 2 market. In this con
nection, he held th at intramarket align
ment should be achieved by fixing the
basic Class I price a t the major consump
tion area of the market and then reduc
ing the price a t outlying areas of the
market to reflect the costs of hauling
milk to the consumption center from
country plants.
Third, the spokesman contended that
inflation will continue, with milk trans
portation and handling costs thus in
creasing further in the future. Such fu
ture economic conditions, he claimed,
would not be recognized under the co
operatives’ proposals, and the adoption
of the proposals thus would not prevent
future price alignment problems.
Strong opposition to any changes in
the order’s transportation allowances
was indicated by a spokesman for a num-'
ber of cooperatives, including one of the
principal cooperatives in the market. The
spokesman expressed the cooperatives’
view that changing the order to impose
additional transportation costs on pro
ducers, either directly through negotia
ble deductions or indirectly through pool
credits for handlers, would undermine
the principle of farm point pricing In
this market and would lower returns to
producers. The spokesman stressed the
cooperatives’ basic position that the costs
of moving bulk milk from farms to plants
are marketing costs th at should be borne
by the market and not by producers.
These cooperatives opposed any order
changes th at would provide for pricing
milk a t plant locations rather than at
the farm. I t was contended th at such a
change would subject producers and
handlers alike to the abuses and admin
istrative difficulties that prevailed prior
to the adoption of farm point pricing.
The cooperatives also opposed increasing
the transportation differential rate from
the present level of 1.2 cents per 10 miles
on the basis that the data submitted by
proponents to support the proposed in
crease were based on hauling charge^
higher than those that generally prevail
in the market. The proposed metropoli
tan transfer credit also was opposed on
the basis th at it would impose an arbi
trary cost on the pool and thus on pro
ducers. The cooperatives’ spokesman also -
expressed the view that there are poten
tial inequities in the application of the
proposals with regard to the appropriate
zone or zones to which the credit would
apply. Moreover, the cooperatives held
that order provisions covering only the
variable costs of transportation, as pro
vided in most orders, tend to provide a
degree of restraint on unneeded move
ments of milk from supply plants and
should be continued.
The spokesman for the opposing co
operatives contended that the proposed
package of changes may not, in fact,
improve the alignment of Class I be
tween Order 2 market and surrounding
markets. He indicated that any savings
in the cost of Class I milk th at handlers
might gain from the proposals would be
used by labor unions as a basis for bar
gaining for higher benefits. Thus, he
claimed, the handlers would not be able
to pass the full Class I cost savings on
to the marketplace, with the result that
their ability to regain or expand Class I
sales, which was the alleged purpose of
the proposals, would be lost or greatly
diminished. I t was indicated that the risk
of producers receiving: lower returns
without accomplishing the intent of the
proposals is not one th at the opposing
cooperatives are willing to take.
Thirty-six individual dairy farm oper
ators testified during the course of the
hearing. Only two indicated support for
any of the proposals th at would result in
dairy farmers paying a higher portion of
the milk transportation costs. The others
strongly opposed such proposals. They
claimed th at dairy farmers cannot af
ford to pay more for milk hauling, and
th at handlers should bear the costs of
transportation since the milk is under
their control once it is picked up at the
farm.
Spokesmen for two handlers also ex
pressed opposition to any actions that
would reduce returns to producers. Their
concern was that such actions would
jeopardize their producer milk supplies
because dairy farmers would seek higher
returns by shifting their milk to outlets
in other markets.
I t should be noted that two proposals
included in the hearing notice were
abandoned by the proponent, and no
other support was offered at the hearing
for such proposals. One would allow
handlers to recover the full farm -to-first
plant hauling cost on bulk tank milk if
authorized by the producer. The other
proposal would increase the transporta
tion differential rate from 1.2 cents to 1.7
cents per each 10-mile zone.
b.
T h e n eed fo r order changes. It is
clear that the present provisions of the
New York-New Jersey order are not com
patible with current marketing condi
tions. M ajor increases in the costs of as
sembling and transporting milk during
the last several years have occurred
without corresponding changes in the
various transportation allowances under
the order. As a result, various handlers
under Order 2 are experiencing a deteri
orating competitive situation in the Class
I (fluid milk) market. Corrective action
is essential if the order is to fulfill its

purpose of providing stable and orderly
marketing conditions for producers and
for the handlers through whom they
market their milk.
A brief description of the New YorkNew Jersey market will help place the is
sue at hand in a better perspective. By
any measure, the Order 2 market may
be considered as large. In 1975, approxi
mately 20,000 dairy farmers supplied
about 786 million pounds of milk month
ly for a marketing area population of
more than 20 million persons.2 Although
the marketing area includes 39 counties
and portions of 12 other counties in New
York and New Jersey, nearly 80 percent
of the population is concentrated in a
relatively small area comprised of New
York City and adjacent areas in New
York and New Jersey. This heavily popu
lated area extends outward roughly 60
to 70 miles from New York City, and con
stitutes the major milk consumption
center in the Order 2 market.
Besides the m ajor New York City met
ropolitan area, there are several other
relatively large consumption centers at
various locations in the New York por
tion of the marketing area. These include
Elmira (metropolitan area population in
1975, 100,100), Binghamton (population
266,700), the Albany-Schenectady-Troy
area (population 799,000), Syracuse
(population 647,800), and the UticaRome area (population 334,900), all of
which are located in the outlying pro
duction areas of the market. Milk proces
sors that operate in these outlying areas
compete with handlers in the m ajor met
ropolitan area for milk supplies.
Processing plants, where milk is pas
teurized and bottled, also are concen
trated in the major metropolitan area.
In March 1975, there were 28 processing
plants located in the 1-10 mile zone.
Within the 1-70 mile zone, 44 plants
processed and distributed fluid milk,
which was over half of the fluid milk
processing plants on the Order 2 market.
These 44 plants received from farms or
other plants 81 percent of the producer
milk utilized in the market for fluid pur
poses that month.
As would be expected, country supply
plants are located primarily in the more
distant areas of the milkshed. Only 7
such plants were located within 140 miles
of New York City in March 1975, whereas
47 were located beyond 140 miles. Of
these, 37 were located in the 141-240 mile
zone, which gives an indication of the
distance that milk must be moved in
supplying the fluid milk requirements of
the processors in the New,York City area.
Dairy farmers who supply milk for the
Order 2 market are widely dispersed over
a large area. In March 1975, milk associ
ated with this market was produced in
the States of New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, and Maryland. Some pro-
ducers* farms are located more than 400
miles from New York City.
Most of the Order 2 milk supply (more
than 93 percent in 1975) originates in
areas beyond the market’s 1-100 mile
zone. Practically all of the distant milk
that is used in Class I at the metropoli
tan area distributing plants is first as
sembled at country plants and then
hauled to the distributing plants in large
over-the-road trucks. Metropolitan area
plants also receive some milk directly
from farms, most of which are located in
the nearby production areas. In March
1975, 19 percent of the milk received for
fluild use at these distributing plants
moved directly from farms to such
plants. The remainder was obtained
through country plants.
Two basic concerns exist. One is the
disparity in milk costs between those
metropolitan area handlers using supply
plant milk and those using direct-ship
milk for meeting their Class I needs. The
other concern is the disparity in Class I
milk costs between metropolitan area
handlers under Order 2 and handlers
regulated under the Middle Atlantic
order. In both cases, the increased as
sembly and transportation costs have
seriously distorted the competitive re
lationships among the handlers involved.
This may be shown through a brief des
cription of the pricing arrangements for
Class I milk that are applicable to such
handlers.
Under Order 2, milk received from bulk
tank producers is priced essentially at
the location of the farm, with such pric
ing commonly referred to as “farm point
pricing.” Under -this arrangement, all
milk th at originates in the same town
ship is priced at the zone price applicable
to th at township. For pricing purposes,
the township’s location is based on the
point in the township th at is nearest the
market’s major consumption center.
Such pricing applies to about 97 percent
of the producer milk on the market. The
remainder of the milk is shipped in cans
and is priced at the location of the plant
at which the milk is first received. Un
less indicated. otherwise, the discussion
on transportation allowances will be in
terms of farm bulk tank milk.
The Class I prices at the various farm
locations vary basically according to the
nearness of the farms to New York City.
For example, the Class I price at farms
in the 101-110 mile zone is 12 cents per
hundredweight less than the Class I price
at New York City. For farms in the 201210 mile zone, the Class I price is 24
cents less. Prices are adjusted for loca
tion by the order’s transportation dif
ferentials, which currently apply at a
rate of 1.2 cents for each 10-mile zone.
This rate is intended to reflect the “vari
able” cost of hauling milk over long dis
tances.
The metropolitan area handler nor

this service, since the latter custom
arily attempts to pass on all related costs
to the processing handler. The current
order does permit hauling deductions
from producer payments of up to 10 cents
per hundredweight on all farm bulk tank
milk, if authorized by the producer or
his cooperative association. In December
1975, authorized deductions were being
made for about 75 percent of the bulk
tank producers, in most cases probably
at the maximum rate.3 Thus, the basic
cost of Class I milk to metropolitan area
handlers is the Class I price applicable
at the farm (township) location plus the
cost of moving the milk, either directly or
through a supply plant, to the process
ing plant, less any hauling deduction.
Although additional handling charges
for other services usually apply in the
case of milk received from cooperatives,
such charges are disregarded for pur
poses of this discussion.
An additional cost applies in the case
of those handlers who receive milk from
forms located within the 1-70 mile zone.
The order provides th at handlers shall
pay producers a so-called direct delivery
differential of 5 cents per hundredweight
on all such milk, whether in bulk or in
cans.
I t is readily apparent that under this
pricing arrangement any increases in as
sembly and transportation costs will
have a direct impact on the procurement
costs of metropolitan area handlers. Be
cause milk is priced at the farm loca
tion, and because the transportation
allowances under the order are fixed, any
additional assembly and transfer costs
must be borne by the processing handler.
Actually, even prior to the recent cost
increases, the present order provisions
did not permit metropolitan area hand
lers to recover through various price
allowances the full cost of getting milk
from the farm to their processing plants
for Class I use. Although the farm -tofirst plant hauling costs were higher, ne
gotiable hauling deductions have been
limited to 10 cents.4 In addition, when
the present Class I transportation dif
ferentials were adopted, the total cost of
hauling milk over a 200-mile distance
was about 34 cents per hundredweight.5
Only 24 cents, which was considered to
be the “variable” cost for this distance,
was reflected in the transportation differ
entials. Also, reloading costs at supply
plants have not been reflected in the
price structure of the order except as
they might be offset from a competitive
standpoint by the direct delivery differ
ential. Thus, the problem of recovering
procurement costs has existed for some
time. The recent increases in hauling

costs, however, have greatly aggravated
this problem for handlers.
The average farm -to-first plant haul
ing cost for bulk tank milk is now 30
cents per hundredweight. The maximum
recovery of such costs for milk used in
Class I is 10 cents, which must be negoti
ated with the producer or his cooperative.
Until recently, relatively few deductions
were being authorized. The supply plant
transfer costs are now averaging 12 cents
per hundredweight. These costs are borne
by the metropolitan area handler who
receives such milk. The only offsetting
factor is the 5-cent direct delivery dif
ferential applicable to nearby direct-ship
milk. The average cost of hauling milk
between plants is 55 cents per hundred
weight for a 200-mile distance. The order
establishes a difference in Class I prices
for this distance of only 24 cents. (These
various costs will be described in great«:
detail at a later point in the decision.)
Metropolitan area handlers must
either absorb these various costs not re
coverable from producers through the
order or pass them on to consumers. To
the extent th at competitive conditions
permit, handlers can be expected to re
sort to the latter procedure. This point,
however, leads to the crux of the entire
issue.
Because of differences in their pro
curement arrangements, not all Order 2
handlers in the major metropolitan area
experience the same raw milk costs. Such
costs are substantially less for those han
dlers using nearby direct-ship milk than
for those using supply plant milk. The
handlers using direct-ship milk thus are
in a favored, position in competing for
sales outlets.
On the basis of cost data presented at
the hearing, a comparison of the average
cost of Class I milk to metropolitan area
handlers from various sources may be
made. For this purpose, the costs are ex
pressed in terms of the Class I differen
tial plus other costs, rather than in terms
of the Class I price (i.e., the basic formu
la price for the second preceding month
plus the Class I differential) plus other
costs. The exclusion of the basic formula
price does not affect the validity of the
cost comparisons (for either intra
market or intermarket purposes) since
this cost factor is the same for all
handlers.
Table 1 sets forth an example of the
different procurement costs incurred by
certain handlers. The average differen
tial cost to a New York City handler for
Class I bulk tank milk obtained directly
from farms in the 51-60 mile zone is
$2.98 per hundredweight. This consists of
the present Class I differential of $2.58
that is applicable at the township pricing
points in that zone, a 35-cent farm -toplant hauling cost, and the 5-cent direct
delivery differential that the handler
must pay to the producers. By compari
son, the average differential cost for
Class I milk obtained by a city handler
from a supply plant located in the 201210 mile zone is $3.37 per hundred
weight. The cost make-up in this case in
cludes a base zone Class I differential of
$2.40, a farm -to-first plant hauling cost
of 30 cents, a supply plant transfer cost
of 12 cents, and a long-distance hauling
cost of 55 cents. In either situation, the
cost of such milk can be reduced by 10
cents per hundredweight if the maxi
mum hauling deduction is authorized by
producers.

Handlers obtaining milk from loca
tions in the market different from those
shown in Table 1 are experiencing
slightly different procurement costs.
However, the examples portrayed in
Table 1 are representative of the general
cost situation being faced by city han
dlers.
Although this difference between the
cost of direct-ship milk and supply plant
milk supposedly would induce handlers
to rely more on direct-ship milk, this
generally has not been the case. This
may be attributed to the fact th at metro
politan area distributors must obtain
substantial quantities of milk from dis
tan t production areas since nearby milk
supplies are inadequate. I t is not feasible
in most cases to move milk directly from
farms in the distant areas to metropoli
tan area plants without any reloading.
Generally, the trucks th at must be used
for picking up bulk tank milk a t the
farms are too small for economical long
distance hauling. Also, haulers who as
semble milk from farms are limited* in
the distance they can move the milk
since their trucks must be available each
day for picking up milk a t farms. Since
Order 2 handlers currently must pay
most of the cost of assembling and trans
porting milk, it must be presumed that
the handlers have been using the most
economical procurement arrangements.
A comparable competitive problem
exists for Order 2 handlers relative to
Order 4 handlers in the Middle Atlantic
market. A number of Order 4 handlers
in the Philadelphia and southern New
Jersey area distribute Class I milk in the
northern New Jersey portion of the Or
der 2 market in competition with Order
2 metropolitan area handlers. The Order
4 Class I differential, which applies at
the plant where the milk is first re
ceived, is $2.78 a t Philadelphia. Handlers
in the Philadelphia and South Jersey
area also must pay producers a direct
delivery differential of 6 cents. Thus, the
differential cost of Class I milk under
Order 4 for these handlers is $2.84 per
hundredweight.
From the data in Table 1, it may be
seen that the Order 2 metropolitan area
handler using supply plant milk is in a
relatively poor competitive posture in
terms of his raw milk costs. Assuming
th at the 10-cent negotiable hauling de
duction is being made, his milk cost is
averaging 43 cents per hundredweight
greater than the cost of milk for the Or
der 4 handlers. The Order 2 handler
using direct-ship milk is in a much bet
ter position relative to Order 4 handlers,
with the Order 2 cost averaging only 4
cents per hundredweight more. However,
it should be noted that in terms of the
class prices applicable a t the two cities,
which are about 100 miles apart, the
Class I price a t New York City is 14
cents lower than the Class I price at
Philadelphia. Thus, the 4-cent cost dif
ference, although appearing to be rea
sonably satisfactory, does not properly
reflect the full cost difference th at has
been intended under the present pricing
provisions.
Because of their lower raw milk costs,
Order 4 handlers are in a position to
establish lower resale prices for fluid
milk than their competitors in the Order
2 market, particularly those metropoli
tan area handlers using supply plant
milk. Thus, as in the intramarket com
petitive situation described earlier, Or
der 2 handlers using supply plant milk
are, in this situation also, seriously dis
advantaged in competing for fluid milk
sales. As noted earlier, about 80 percent
of the Class I milk used by Order 2
metropolitan area handlers is received
from supply plants.
Although the record provides no spe
cific data regarding hauling costs in the
Order 4 market, it may be presumed that
the increased costs experienced by haul
ers of milk in the Order 2 market have
been experienced in the Middle Atlantic
market as well. The inflationary trend
in the economy that is associated with
such increases has been a national phe
nomenon. However, handlers in the two
markets have been affected in signifi
cantly different ways by these cost in
creases. This is because of the differences
in the pricing arrangements and pro
curement methods in the two markets.
In the Order 4 market, producer milk
is priced a t the location of the plant
where the milk is first received. Since
most of the milk is moved to city proc
essing plants directly from farms, most
producers receive the city price for their
milk. Under this pricing arrangement,
however, the cost of getting the milk to
the city is borne by the producers. Any
increases in hauling costs likewise are
absorbed by producers. Handlers’ pro
curement costs are not affected by the
hauling costs.
In the Order 2 market, the current
pricing arrangement and the extensive
reliance on supply plants have caused the
burden of increased hauling costs to fall
largely on handlers. The higher hauling
costs have been reflected not in lower re-

turns at the farm level, as in the case of
the Order 4 market, but in higher costs
for milk at the distribution center. As a
result, Order 2 handlers in the metropoli
tan area are not able to compete on a
comparable cost basis with handlers in
the nearby Middle Atlantic market for
Class I sales.
As already noted, there is substantial
competition between Order 2 and Order
4 handlers for Class I sales in the North
Jersey portion of the Order 2 market.
This is a relatively heavily populated
area located between New York City and
Philadelphia. Total consumption of fluid
milk products in this area in 1975 was
estimated to be nearly 1.4 billion pounds,
which was equivalent to 29 percent of
the Order 2 Class I milk that year.
Data presented at the hearing indi
cate that handlers under other orders
have substantially increased their Class
I dispositions in North Jersey over the
past several years. In 1969, such sales
amounted to 194 million pounds. A pre
liminary estimate of such sales in 1975
was 349 million pounds, an increase of
79 percent. In 1975, such dispositions of
fluid milk products by other order han
dlers comprised 25 percent of the esti
mated fluid milk consumption in North
Jersey. This was up from 13 percent in
1969. It should be noted th at total con
sumption in this area declined by 7.5
percent during this 1969-1975 period. Al
though the record does not indicate how
many other orders were involved in these
intermarket sales, data for 1973,1974 and
1975 indicate that most of the other order
sales were by Order 4 handlers. Because
North Jersey adjoins the Middle Atlantic
marketing area, it is reasonable to pre
sume that most of the other order sales
in this area in earlier years also were by
such handlers.
This major shift of Class I sales in
North Jersey from Order 2 handlers to
Order 4 handlers cannot be attributed
entirely to the rather significant advan
tage that Order 4 handlers have on their
raw milk costs. Nevertheless, it is rea
sonable to conclude that this was a major
contributing factor in the changing sales
pattern for this area.
Although the increased hauling costs
have been absorbed by handlers rather
than producers, Order 2 producers never
theless are having their returns reduced
as a result of the shift in Class I sales in
North Jersey to Order 4 handlers. This is
because the lost sales mean less milk
being used in Class I, which in turn re
sults in lower blend prices.
The discussion on the need for order
changes has been limited thus far to the
impact of increased hauling costs on the
cost of Class I milk. Because of the or
der’s pricing system, the competitive po
sition of those handlers processing Class
II milk also is affected by the higher
transportation costs. Although much less
attention was focused on this issue at the
hearing, handlers of Class I I milk are
always very much concerned that their
cost of raw milk be comparable with that
of competing processors. This is partic
ularly important for processors of butter,

ing deduction, plus or minus whatever
difference there is between the class
prices applicable at the farm (township)
pricing point and the plant. In the case
of Class n milk, handlers recover an ad
ditional 10 cents per hundredweight
through a pool credit. Although these
provisions were intended to provide han
dlers with sufficient flexibility in pricing
to recove farm -to-first plant assembly
and hauling costs, the record indicates
that under current conditions handlers
are not able to do so.
One of the proponent cooperatives
presented data showing the average costs
incurred by the cooperative in hauling
bulk milk from members’ farms to dif
ferent types of plants during the 12month period of November 1974 through
October 1975. Since the major portion
of this milk was hauled by contract
haulers, the data reflect actual hauling
charges paid by the cooperative to
haulers. About 2.5 billion pounds of milk
were hauled, which represented 27 per
cent of the total producer milk on the
market dining th at period.
For the 12-month period, the coopera
tive’s average cost for picking up farm
bulk tank milk and delivering it to 7
country reload stations was 26 cents per
hundredweight. The average cost for de
liveries to the cooperative’s 5 manufac
turing plants was 29 cents; The average
hauling cost for milk moved directly
from farms to to 18 distributing plants
of other handlers was 33 cents, while the
cost for similar deliveries to 20 manu
facturing plants of other handlers aver
aged 28 cents. The 12-month weighted
average cost of hauling milk to all such
plants was 29 cents. For the last four
months of this 12-month period, the
average monthly costs ranged from 29
to 31 cents per hundredweight.
Several proprietary handlers also pre
sented data on farm -to-plant hauling
costs. Such costs ranged from 22 cents
to 70 cents per hundredweight, with most
falling between 25 cents and 32 cents.
These data reflect similar ranges of haul
ing costs for both handlers and the pro
ponent cooperative.
I t is readily apparent that under the
present order provisions handlers are not
able to recover all of their farm -to-first
plant hauling costs. Although such costs
vary among handlers, it is reasonable to
conclude that such costs average, as pro
ponents contend, about 30 cents per
hundredweight. As indicated, the recov
ery of hauling costs is limited under the
order essentially to 10 cents on Class I
milk and 20 cents on Class I I milk. R ela
tively limited amounts may be recovered
through the transportation differentials
if the milk is moved from farms in one
price zone to plants in a higher price
zone.
The order provisions should reflect the
costs that handlers incur in assembling
milk from farms and transporting it to
the plant of first receipt. Accordingly, the
cooperatives’ proposed 15-cent pool credit
on all receipts of farm bulk tank milk
should be adopted. As noted, a pool credit
is now applicable to bulk tank milk used
in Class n . The application of this pro-
cedure to all bulk tank milk would mere
ly extend a method for recovering haul
ing costs that appears to be operating
satisfactorily in this market. This re
vised procedure will tend to place han
dlers in a more comparable competitive
position relative to both their intramar
ket and intermarket sales.
The record does not indicate th at a
pool credit of 15 cents per hundredweight
will result in handlers being over-com
pensated for hauling costs that they in
cur. Minimum farm -to-first plant haul
ing costs were described as being at least
this amount. The hauling cost data re
ferred to earlier indicate that charges
to the cooperative by contract haulers in
October 1975, a month for which detailed
data were presented, were not less than
17 cents per hundredweight. There may
be an occasion, of course, where a han
dler, in order to hold his milk supply,
may not wish to pass his hauling costs
back to his producers. Although the pool
credit would still apply, there would be
nothing to preclude a handler from mak
ing off-setting over-order payments to his
producers.
As envisioned by the proponent pro
ducer groups, the transportation credit
on bulk tank milk would be applied in
such a way that it would result in a lower
blend price not only for bulk tank ship
pers but for can shippers as well. Al
though the present pool credit on Class n
bulk tank milk is applied in this manner,
this procedure should not be used under
the pricing changes adopted herein. Can
shippers, whose milk is priced at the plant
to which it is delivered, normally pay the
farm -to-plant hauling costs themselves.
When their blend price is reduced be
cause of the pool transportation credit,
they in effect are also paying a portion
of the farm -to-plant hauling costs on
bulk tank milk as well. Since only about
3 percent of the Order 2 producer milk is
now shipped in cans, about 14.5 cents of
the 15-cent transportation credit would,
under the cooperatives’ proposal, be
passed back to bulk tank shippers
through the lower blend price. Never
theless, the can shippers would experi
ence the same 14.5-cent blend price re
duction. Although the record reflects a
view that can shippers should subsidize
the cost of getting bulk tank milk from
farms to plants, the record does not pro
vide a reasonable basis for this position.
Most handlers will incur farm -to-first
plant hauling costs in excess of the 15
cents th at they would recover through
the transportation credit on bulk tank
milk. As indicated, the average cost is 30
cents per hundredweight. Handlers need'
to have the opportunity to recover at
least some of these additional costs if
the milk is to be competitive in the mar
ketplace. Thus, they should be permitted
to negotiate with a producer or his co
operative a tank truck service charge of
up to 15 cents per hundredweight with
respect to any farm -to-plant hauling
costs not recovered through the 15-cent
pool credit.
Numerous factors affect the cost of
farm -to-plant hauling. These include
the distance involved, terrain, types and
condition of roads, weight limits on
roads and bridges, volume of milk picked
up a t each farm, and size of tank truck
used (often a function of the other fac
tors) . Thus, it is in the interest of both
handlers and producers that the order
provide some flexibility in pricing ar
rangements th at reflects the varying
conditions that affect the cost of collect
ing and hauling milk from farms to
plants. Because of the relatively higher
assembly costs involved, small produc
ers, or those in somewhat isolated loca
tions, for example, may find it necessary
to authorize hauling deductions in order
to be assured of continued tank truck
service. Others may find handlers will
ing to absorb some of the farm -to-plant
hauling in order to maintain conven
iently located sources of supply. Such
flexibility is provided in the present or
der provisions and should be continued.
The negotiable hauling deduction
should be limited to 15 cents per hun
dredweight rather than 25 cents as pro
posed by cooperatives. In some cases, of
course, farm -to-plant hauling costs will
exceed the 30 cents that handlers would
be permitted to recover through the pool
credit and negotiable hauling deduction.
However, the imposed limit recognizes
th at handlers can recover part of the
hauling cost through the difference in
zone prices when milk is procured from
locations more distant from the city
than their plant. Also, the limit will tend
to encourage handlers to move milk as
efficiently as possible.
A brief from certain handlers re
quested the elimination of the order pro
vision that allows a cooperative to au
thorize hauling deductions on behalf of
its members. The handlers contended
th at the intent of the hearing proposals
is to provide more comparable procure
ment costs among competing handlers,
which would be achieved in part by per
mitting handlers to negotiate with pro
ducers to recover a portion of the hauling
cost. The handlers indicated th at this
goal would not necessarily be achieved if
cooperatives can act on behalf of their
members and thus, as an organization,
preclude the recovery of hauling costs by
handlers that producers acting individ
ually might be willing to authorize.
This request, although related to the
issues under consideration, goes some
what beyond the scope of the evidence
presented on the basic issues. Any order
change of this nature should be based on
testimony directly related to this point.
Accordingly, the request is denied.

tion with Order 4 handlers relative to
their cost of Class I milk. As indicated,
most of the milk in the Middle Atlantic
market moves directly from farms to the
city distributing plants, with producers
paying the hauling costs. In the Order 2
market, about 80 percent of the milk recived by the metropolitan area handlers
for fluid use moves through supply
plants. The costs of transferring this
milk- at supply plants and hauling it to
the metropolitan ,area are borne by the
distributors. Thus, comparable procure
ment costs for Order 2 and Order 4 han
dlers are possible only if the differences
between the Class I prices at supply
plants and at the distributing plants re
flect the full cost of obtaining supply
plant milk. Presently,xsuch price differ
ences under the order fall considerably
short of this.
The proponent cooperative th a t'p re
sented data on farm -to-plant hauling
costs also submitted data regarding its
cost experience for 7 country reload
stations which it operated. During the
12-month period of November 1974
through October 1975, over 597 million
pounds of farm bulk tank milk were
received at these stations and reloaded
onto over-the-road tankers for shipment
to other plants. No milk was received
in cans, nor was there any milk proc
essing at such facilities. The average op
erating costs at the individual plants
ranged from 8.5 cents (84.6 million
pounds of receipts) to 21 cents (60.3 mil
lion pounds) for this period. For all
plants, the weighted average cost was 12
cents per hundredweight. Thus, on this
basis, it is presumed that metropolitan
area handlers must pay an average of
12 cents per hundredweight on supply
plant milk to cover the cost of operating
the transfer facilities.
The same cooperative also presented
data regarding long-distance hauling
rates that were applicable to interplant
movements of milk. The hauling rates
were those being charged by a major
commercial hauler for transporting milk
from 14 country plants to distributing
plants in Queens, Nassau, Suffolk and
Westchester Counties in New York State.
The country plant locations varied from
the 151-160 mile zone to the 391-400
mile zone. The rates were applicable to
minimum loads of 49,000 pounds of milk.
The cooperative’s witness indicated that
from time to time the cooperative had
used the hauler’s services for moving
milk to the metropolitan area from these
various country locations. Also, the wit
ness indicated th at the cooperative ap
plied the same rates to milk which it
moved in its own trucks.
An analysis of the hauling data indi
cates that “fixed” costs associated with
long-distance shipments are 19 cents per
hundredweight. The rates reflect a
“variable” cost of 1.8 cents per hundred
weight per 10 miles, or 36 cents for 200
miles. Thus, the total transportation cost
for 200-mile shipments from the 201210 mile zone to distributing plants in
the major metropolitan area, for ex
ample, would be 55 cents per hundred
weight (19 cents plus 36 cents) .
A spokesman for several cooperative
associations maintained at the hearing
and in their brief that no change should
be made in the transportation differen
tial rate on the basis of data presented
in this proceeding. The witness claimed
that the hauling rates submitted as evi
dence were not representative of actual
rates p'aid by most handlers in this mar
ket. However, the witness did not provide
any detailed hauling cost data to sub
stantiate his position. Several handler
witnesses testified that the hauling cost
data appeared to be reasonable. Since
these were the only comprehensive haul
ing cost data presented at the hearing,
they must be viewed as the best evidence
available in considering whether a
change in the transportation differen
tials is needed.
In view of the variable cost reflected
in the hauling rates being charged for
long-distance milk shipments, the pres
ent 1.2-cent transportation differential
rate should be increased. For those
zones less distant from the city than the
201-210 mile base zone, the rate should
be increased to 1.8 cents, which is the
full variable cost. For the more distant
zones, the rate should be limited to 1.5
cents, which is the rate commonly used
under other Federal orders.
Historically, the Upper Midwest has
been the m ajor source of supplemental
milk supplies for many of the markets
throughout the United States. To reflect
the variable cost of moving such milk to
distant markets, Class I prices in Fed
eral order markets gradually increase
the more distant the markets are from
the Upper Midwest. Such gradation of
prices may be noted, for example, as one
moves from the Upper Midwest tc) m ar
kets (including the Order 2 market) in
the northeastern part of the country.
The gradation of prices reflects to a large
degree a transportation rate of 1.5
cents per hundredweight per 10 miles.
The adoption of this rate for at least the
outer portion of the Order 2 milkshed
would tend to provide a further coordi
nation of Class I prices on a geographi
cal basis.
With respect to the inner zones of the
Order 2 market, however, a 1.8-cent
transportation rate should be established
in recognition of the pricing problems
that are peculiar to this market and
which are of particular concern in this
proceeding. As indicated, the basic
thrust of the proposals under consider
ation is the establishment of a Class I
price structure under the order that will
permit milk distributors in the majors
metropolitan area of the market to be
competitive with distributors in the
nearby Middle Atlantic market. Much of
the milk obtained by these Order 2
handlers originates in those production
areas between New York City and the
201-210 mile zone, the base price zone
for the market. For this milk to be com
petitive with Order 4 milk, the cost of
transporting such milk to the market
outlets must be adequately reflected in
the Order 2 price structure. As noted, the
variable cost for hauling milk in this
market is 1.8 cents per 10 miles. Reflec
tion of this full amount in the order’s
transportation differentials for the inner
pricing zones is needed in conjunction
with other changes in the order’s pric
ing provisions to overcome the severe
competitive problems being experienced
by certain Order 2 handlers.
Because of the geographic location of
the area in which the 1.8-cent transpor
tation differential rate would apply, the
use of this rate, versus the 1.5-cent rate,
should not result in problems of price
alignment between markets, as might be
the case if this rate were adopted for
other markets. Only two markets are
adjacent to the inner zones of the Order
2 market—Middle Atlantic and New
England. As indicated, the 1.8-cent rate
is being adopted to provide a better
alignment of Class I prices between the
Middle Atlantic and New York-New
Jersey markets. In the New England
market, the applicable location adjust
ments for the inner zones of that market
are in effect providing handlers a trans
portation rate on supply plant milk of 2
cents per 10 miles. Since there are no
other markets further east of the Order
2 market, this eliminates any concern
for price coordination in that direction.
Increasing the transportation differ
ential rate of 1.8 cents will not in itself
permit metropolitan area handlers to
recover all of the procurement costs as
sociated with supply plant milk. As in
dicated, there are the fixed costs for
long-distance shipments, which are now
19 cents per hundredweight. Also, there
is the cost of transferring milk a t supply
plants, which is now averaging 12 cents
per hundredweight. Historically, these
additional costs have not been reflected
in the order’s price structure. Neverthe
less, they have a direct bearing on the
metropolitan area handler’s ability to be
competitive in terms of his Class I pro
curement costs with handlers in the Mid
dle Atlantic market, as well as Order 2
handlers receiving direct-ship milk, who
are not experiencing such costs. I t is
necessary, then, th at recognition be given
to these costs. This should be done by
lowering the Class I price differential at
the 201-210 mile zone from $2.40 to $2.25.
The Class I price structure and trans
portation allowances under Order 2
should be such th at the average cost of
Class I milk to metropolitan area han
dlers does not exceed the approximate
cost of Class I milk sold in the Order 2
North Jersey area by handlers under the
Middle Atlantic order. As noted earlier,
distributors in the Philadelphia-South
Jersey area must pay a Class I differ
ential of $2.78 plus a 6-cent direct de
livery differential on milk received di
rectly from producers’ farms, or a total
of $2.84. In addition, there is the cost of
moving packaged products from Order 4
plants into the North Jersey area, al
though this is limited in some cases since
there is relatively little distance between
a number of Order 2 distributing plants
in North Jersey and several Order 4
plants in South Jersey and southeastern
Pennsylvania. In fact, one Order 4 dis
tributing plant is located at Flemington,

New Jersey, which is in the Order 2 m ar
keting area and only a few miles from
several Order 2 plants.® While it might
be reasonable to use the Order 4 differ
ential cost of $2.84 for intermarket price
comparisons, it is concluded that this
amount should be increased to $2.92 to
reflect some additional costs th at Order
4 handlers would experience in moving
packaged milk into the North Jersey
area.
Unless the base zone Class I differ
ential is lowered, the cost of supply plant
milk to Order 2 handlers in the major
metropolitan area will continue to ex
ceed the cost of Order 4 milk. If the base
zone- differential were maintained at
$2.40, the transportation differential rate
of 1.8 cents per 10 miles would result in
a Class I differential a t the 1-10 mile
zone of $2.76. To this must be added the
fixed hauling cost of 19 cents and the
supply plant transfer cost of 12 cents,
which totals $3.07. This is 15 cents higher
than the approximate Order 4 differen
tial cost of $2.92 against which Order 2
handlers are generally competing.
I t might be argued by producers who
obviously will be concerned about the
impact of such a price reduction on their
returns th at the estimated Order 4 cost
of $2.92 is too low and that a lesser re
duction in the Order 2 Class I differen
tial is needed to overcome the competi
tive problem at issue. On the other hand,
handlers could argue that the present 14cent difference in Class I prices at New
York City and Philadelphia (in favor of
Order 2 handlers) should be reflected in
the new price structure. To have supply
plant milk obtained from the 201-210
mile base zone cost no more to handlers
than the present $2.64 Class I differen
tial a t New York City, the base zone dif
ferential would have to be reduced to
$1.97. A price reduction of this magni
tude would have, of course, a severe im
pact on the returns to Order 2 producers.
I t is concluded that although the 15-cent
reduction adopted herein will not main
tain the present intermarket price rela
tionship reflected in the present Order 2
and Order 4 Class I pricing provisions, it
will permit Order 2 handlers to be com
petitive with Order 4 handlers in the
North Jersey area. At the same time, the
15-cent reduction can be considered as
having only a moderate impact on pro
ducers relative to the seriousness of the
loss of Class I sales th at is the central
theme of this proceeding.
R ather than using a Class I price re
duction as a means for the recovery of
transportation costs by handlers the pro
ponent producer groups urged that
a “metropolitan transfer credit” be
adopted. Under their proposal, handlers
would receive a 25-cent per hundred
weight credit on receipts of Class I milk
originating beyond the 1-140 mile zone
and transferred in bulk, either directly
from farms or from plants, to plants lo6 Official notice is taken of the list of pool

order in December 1975,"which was released

cated within the 1-65 mile zone. The
credit would be limited to 19 cents if the
transportation differential rate were set
a t 1.8 cents per 10 miles rather than at
1.5 cents, the rate on which the proposed
25-cent credit was based. The intent of
the credit was to enable metropolitan
area handlers to recover the “fixed”
hauling costs and any “variable” hauling
costs not reflected in the transportation
differential rate.
The metropolitan transfer credit was
proposed in recognition of the fact that
the order pricing does not reflect the cur
rent differences in value th at milk has to
handlers a t various locations. Because of
the increased transportation costs, the
value of milk in the more distant produc
tion areas of the milkshed relative to its
value at the m ajor consumption center is
less now than previously. Although the
metropolitan transfer credit would re
flect this decrease in value of distant
milk in prices paid by handlers, the order
prices payable to the distant producers
would not be reduced to the same extent.
This is because the credit to handlers,
through the mechanism of pooling,
would result in all producers in the mar
ket, and not ju st the distant producers,
sharing equally the cost of moving dis
tant milk supplies to the metropolitan
area. Thus, the returns to the distant
producers would not be lowered as much
as is warranted by the actual difference
in location values. .The Class I price re
duction, on the other hand, would impact
fully on the distant producers. Accord
ingly, this is the preferable means for re
flecting the lower value of distant milk in
the returns of distant producers.
D irect delivery differen tial. A direct
delivery differential of 15 cents per
hundredweight should be paid to all pro
ducers whose farms are located in the
1-70 mile zone.
Under the Class I price structure
adopted herein, the Class I differential
at the 1-10 mile zone would be $2.61.
Handlers in the 1-10 mile zone who re
ceive bulk tank milk directly from farms
should be able under the provisions
adopted herein to obtain such milk at
not more than this differential cost. If
the cost of hauling such milk from the
51-60 mile zone, for example, were 35
cents, as the record suggests, the han
dler would recover 15 cents of this cost
through the pool transportation credit.
Another 9 cents would be recovered
through the transportation differential.
The remaining 11 cents of the 35-cent
cost could be recovered by negotiating a
hauling deduction with the producer or
his cooperative. Similar cost portrayals
could be se t forth for other near-in zones
from which direct-ship milk is received
by city handlers. However, it is reason
able to presume under these assumptions
that the cost of such milk at plants in
the 1-10 mile zone would approximate
the $2.61 differential cost.
Under the adopted pricing arrange
ment, the differential cost of supply
plant milk at city plants would average
$2.92 per hundredweight. This would
mean a 31-cent difference between the
$2.92 cost of supply plant milk and the
$2.61 cost of direct-ship milk at the city.
The 31-cent difference represents the
19-cent fixed hauling cost on long
distance shipments and the 12-cent sup
ply plant transfer-cost. This difference
suggests that direct-ship milk would be
worth up to 31 cents per hundredweight
more to city handlers than the adopted
city Class I differential of $2.61. Accord
ingly, the present 5-cent direct delivery
differential would not adequately reflect
the additional value that direct-ship
milk from nearby areas would have to
city handlers under the new price struc
ture relative to alternative milk supplies
from distant supply plants.
The economic value of milk that met
ropolitan area handlers receive directly
from producers is determined in part by
the cost of alternative supplies. Only
relatively limited quantities of milk are
available to metropolitan area handlers
on a direct-ship basis. Most of the Class
I milk needed by such handlers must be
obtained from distant supply plants. The
procurement costs for such milk, how
ever, are substantially higher than for
nearby direct-ship milk, which enhances
the value of the direct-ship milk. By
making their milk available to the met
ropolitan area handlers, the nearby
direct-ship producers are providing
these handlers with an economic service
of benefit to the handlers, since the han
dlers otherwise would have to incur the
additional procurement costs associated
with alternative milk supplies from sup
ply plants. The direct-ship producers
should be compensated for this service.
Although the direct-ship milk may
have greater value to metropolitan area
handlers, the increase in the present di
rect delivery differential should be lim
ited to 15 cents per hundredweight for
two basic reasons. First, the direct de
livery differential would apply, as now,
to all direct-ship milk used in Class I I as
well as to th at used in Class I. Through
the transportation differentials for Class
n milk, the order already fixes for the
Class I I price at plants in the 1-10 mile
zone 8 cents higher than a t the 201-210
mile zone. With the 15-cent direct deliv
ery differential, the cost of Class I I milk
at New York City would be 23 cents per
hundredweight over the base zone Class
I I price.-Actually, relatively little milk
is used in Class H at the city distribut
ing plants. Nevertheless, in increasing
the direct delivery differential, its im
pact on a handler’s Class I I milk cost
should be recognized.
A second consideration is the general
tendency for handlers not to negotiate
any hauling deductions with producers
located in those production areas near
the major metropolitan area. There has
been a gradual shift of producers in
these areas from the Order 2 market to
the nearby New England and Middle At
lantic Federal order markets. To hold
their local supplies, Order 2 handlers
, have been reluctant to seek authorized
hauling deductions from the near-in
producers. Because the blend prices in
these neighboring markets can be ex
pected to remain attractive to such pro
ducers, it is questionable whether
handlers will negotiate any hauling de-

ductions on direct-ship milk. This, of
course, would offset some of the cost ad
vantage that direct-ship milk might oth
erwise have relative to supply plant milk.
The direct delivery differential should
continue to be applicable only to pro
ducers located in the 1-70 mile zone,
rather than to producers in the 1-110
mile zone as was proposed. In March
1975, the only month for which such
data are available in the record, all of
the Class I producer milk originating on
farms in the 1-70 mile zone was directshipped to plants located in this zone.
With respect to the more distant zones,
at least some of the Class I milk origi
nating in these zones and moved to met
ropolitan area plants was reloaded. For
the 71-80 mile zone, the amount was very
limited—only 1 percent of the total Class
I milk originating in that zone. With re
spect to the 81-90, 91-100, and 101-110
mile zones, however, the amounts of
Class I milk reloaded for shipment to
plants in the 1-70 mile zone ranged from
27 to 29 percent of the total Class I milk
originating in each of these zones.
Under the current handling arrange
ments, an extension of the direct deliv
ery differential zone would mean th at
the differential would be applicable not
only to direct-ship milk, as intended, but
also to milk that is reloaded before be
ing delivered to metropolitan area
plants. A handler could not afford to p*>v
both the supply plant transfer cost and
the direct delivery differential on the
same milk. As long as the direct delivery
differential is applied on the basis of
where a producer’s farm is located
rather than on the basis of the milk ac
tually being delivered directly from the
farm to the plant, it is not feasible to
extend the application of the differen
tial as was proposed.
Upstate fluid differen tial. A proposed
“upstate fluid differential’* of 10 cents
per hundredweight to be applicable to
Class I milk received at distributing
plants located outside the 1-65 mile zone
from farms beyond the 1-110 mile zone
should not be adopted.
This proposal was intended to provide
a certaih cost relationship between dis
tributing plants in upstate New York
and distributing plants in the major
metropolitan area for milk received at
these plants for Class I use. I t was
pointed out that most upstate distribut
ing plants receive milk directly from
farms, thereby avoiding reloading costs
that are incurred by the metropolitan
area handlers who receive milk from
supply plants. Proponents contended
that the additional 10-cent charge to the
upstate handlers would tend to equalize
procurement costs among competing
handlers. The extra 10 cents charged
such upstate handlers would be pooled,
which would result in a slightly higher
uniform price to all producers in the
market.
Although the thrust of the order

equate the procurement costs of compet

to the receiving handler’s utilization be
carried out a t an earlier point in the allo
cation procedure.
In supporting the proposals, spokes
men for proponents pointed out that
other order bulk milk received at a Class
I distributing plant operated by a mul
tiple-plant handler is now assigned pri
marily to Class I, even if the handler’s
other pool plants are mainly Class n
operations. This procedure, they as
serted, gives,the other order milk a pri
ority claim on the handler’s Class I use
and results in more milk from local pro
ducers being assigned to Class II. Ac
cording to the spokesmen, the intent of
the proposals is to encourage handlers
to use pool milk for fluid use and to
minimize any displacement of local milk
in Class I with other order milk. W it
nesses contended, however, th at the pro
posals would not prevent or impede
interorder milk movements when addi
tional milk is needed for fluid use. They
also pointed out that the proposed classi
fication conforms with the procedure fol
lowed under virtually all other Federal
orders.
Receipts of other order bulk milk not
assigned to Class I I use by agreement
presently are assigned pro rata to the
utilization in each class a t the Order 2
plant where the milk is received. Thus,
in the case of a handler who, for example,
operates a pool distributing plant and a
pool plant a t which the utilization is
largely Class n , receipts of other order
bulk milk a t the distributing plant
are assigned largely to Class I. At
the same time, pool milk received
from local producers a t the han
dler’s other pool plant is assigned
largely to Class II. Although the han
dler’s total operation utilizes milk from
both local and other order producers,
the economic burden of the handler’s
lower-valued reserve milk supplies is
borne by the local producers. Thus, an
equitable sharing of Class I and Class I I
utilization among the handler’s supply
sources is not achieved.
The provisions for dealing with inter
order bulk shipments should be ones
which assign a proportion of the Class
I and Class I I utilization of the receiving
handler between the local producers and
the other order producers in a way that
accords recognition to each group’s in
terest in, and contribution to, such uti
lization. As provided under other orders,
interorder bulk milk shipments should
share in the utilization of Order 2 han
dlers basically to the same extent that
Order 2 producers share in the market’s
Class I and Class I I utilization. Accord
ingly, the classification of bulk milk
received from other order plants by han
dlers receiving both local and other order
supplies should be determined by assign
ing the marketwide utilization to such
milk, unless a Class n classification is re
quested. This would mean th at when a
handler calls upon another order market
to furnish a part of his total supply his
local producer milk would not be as
signed the lower surplus return until the
milk from the shipping market has been
assigned a Class n utilization equal to
the marketwide utilization of Class II
milk in the receiving market. _
The limit placed on the quantity of
other order milk assigned to Class I I (i.e.,
the actual quantity utilized as Class IE
by the receiving handler) assures that
the order provisions themselves will not
assess the handler an additional cost re
lated to the assignment to Class II of
milk in excess of a handler’s own utiliza
tion in th at class. I t assures also that
producers in the shipping market will
have their milk classified as Class I I
milk in no greater quantity than that
actually utilized by the handler to whom
the milk was transferred.
The order should not provide for m ar
ketwide proration of bulk milk received
from another order plant when the
receiving handler has a greater propor
tion of milk in Class I I than the average
in the receiving market. Instead, such
milk should be classified pro rata to the
handler’s total utilization in each class.
Marketwide proration of receipts of milk
from other markets is designed to deal
primarily with milk received by a han
dler who is supplementing his local sup
ply for Class I use. In the case of a han
dler with a higher proportion of milk in
Class I I than the market average, m ar
ketwide proration would tend to encour
age unduly and uneconomically the im
portation of milk because it would as
sign a disproportionate share of the milk
of local producers to Class II.
Other order milk may be imported by
a handler who operates ju st a single
plant. In such cases, the milk would be
assigned to the particular plant’s utiliza
tion within the limits described above.
In other cases, however, the milk may be
received at the distributing plant of a
multiple-plant handler. The Class I uti
lization a t such plant is likely to be
higher than the average Class I utiliza
tion at all of his pool plants. I t is pos
sible that the handler would have sup
plies at his other pool plants which would
be in lower-priced uses than the milk
brought in from other regulated mar
kets. If the milk imported by a multipleplant handler is assigned in this case
only to the receiving plant’s utilization,
such assignment could reduce the han
dler’s percentage of producer milk in
Class I in his system to a greater extent
than if the assignment were applied
over the whole system.
Assigning bulk receipts from other
order plants to the handler’s system
utilization will prevent a handler with
more than one pool plant from discrim
inating against either his own producers
or those supplying the other Federal
order market by importing milk not
filling a bona fide need for Class I use.
The order should provide, therefore, that
receipts of interorder bulk milk be pro
rated to the combined utilization of milk
a t all of the handler’s pool plants in the
receiving market.
At the hearing, producer groups pro
posed that tiie utilization of the receiv
ing plant be used in those cases where
this would result in a greater Class n
classification of the other order milk
than if the utilization of the handler’s
system were used. Their spokesman indi
cated th at this procedure would gener
ally preclude such milk from sharing in
the receiving handler’s Class I utilization
at other plants when the milk is received
at the handler’s manufacturing plant for
Class I I use but a Class I I classification
is not requested by the receiving and
shipping handlers.
This procedure should not be adopted.
The order provides that a Class I I classi
fication may be requested by the two
handlers involved when bulk milk is
shipped from one market to another for
surplus disposal. This arrangement facil
itates the disposal of surplus milk
through outlets in another market with
out disrupting intermarket blend price
relationships. I t is expected th at when
milk is received a t an Order 2 plant for
manufacturing the handlers will request
the lower classification for the milk. In
the absence of such request, it must be
assumed th at the Order 2 handler is sup
plementing his local supply for his Class
I operation. In this case, the classifica
tion of the other order milk should re
flect the handler’s reliance on both
local and other order producers for milk
for fluid use.
In order to implement the procedure
adopted herein for classifying other order
bulk milk on the basis of the combined
utilization a t all of the handler’s pool
plants, it is necessary to modify the pro
cedure for allocating a handler’s milk re
ceipts to his utilization. The changes es
tablish a procedure whereby the milk
from other order plants will be classified
on the basis of the handler’s total sys
tem, but will be assigned to classes at the
pool plant of actual receipt. Under this
procedure, a situation may arise where
the quantity of other source milk to be
subtracted from a specific class (as de
termined from receipts and utilization
in his entire system) exceeds the utiliza
tion remaining in th at class at the plant
of actual receipt. In this case, an ac
counting technique is used for increasing
the utilization in such class a t the plant
of actual receipt and making a cor
responding reduction in the same class
at one or more of his other pool plants
in his system. Since such exchanges of
utilization will be made in corresponding
amounts as between plants, this tech
nique will not change the amount of milk
to be accounted for a t each plant or the
classification of milk within the han
dler’s entire system. The order should
specify th at such utilization shifts be
made first a t the other pool plant of the
handler located nearest to the plant of
actual receipt, and then in sequence at
each successively more distant pool
plant of the handler.
The present sequence for allocating re
ceipts from various sources to a handler's
utilization should not be changed. A
spokesman for several cooperatives asked
that the allocation procedure be reviewed
to determine whether the pro rata classi
fication of other order bulk milk should
be moved forward" in the allocation se
quence. The cooperatives’ position was

C harges on overdue accounts. The
order should provide for the application
of a late-payment charge of 1 percent
per month on handler obligations to the
market administrator that are overdue.
Such obligations would be those due the
producer settlement fund and the ad
ministrative expense fund, both of which
are maintained by the market adminis
trator. Any such unpaid obligation
should be increased by 1 percent on the
first day after the due date of the obliga
tion and on the same day of each suc
ceeding month until the obligation is
paid.
The institution of a late-payment
charge under the order was proposed by
a cooperative! association. I t proposed
that any unpaid obligation of a handler
that is due the market administrator be
increased on a daily basis, beginning
the first day the obligation is overdue,
by an amount reflecting the “prime rate”
charged by banks plus 5 percentage
points. Thus, if the prime rate (the inter
est charged by commercial banks on loans
to their preferred business customers)
were 7 percent, the annual charge would
be 12 percent (7 percent plus 5 per
centage points), or approximately 0.033
percent as applied on a daily basis.
As set forth in the hearing notice,
the cooperative’s proposal also would
have applied a charge on any overdue
payments by the market administrator
from the producer settlement fund to
handlers. At the hearing, however, the
cooperative deleted this type of charge
from its proposal.
The proposal, including the charge on
overdue payments by the market admin
istrator, was supported by a number of
other cooperatives in the market.
Spokesmen for the proponent and
supporting cooperatives indicated that
the institution of a charge on overdue
obligations of handlers is necessary to

out that late payments result in money
due the market administrator not being
available for investment by him to maxi
mum advantage, such as during the
heavy-production months when money
from handlers is withheld under the
“Louisville Plan” for later payment to
producers during the short-production
months. In addition, the spokesmen in
dicated that those handlers making late
payments have a competitive advantage
in their business operations relative to
handlers making timely payments.
In support of the proposed late-pay
ment charge, the witness for the propo
nent cooperative contended that the
charge should be related to current inter
est rates since delinquent handlers are in
effect borrowing money from producers.
The spokesman indicated that a charge
based on the prime rate plus 5 percentage
points is in line with interest rates on
business loans where more than a mini
mal credit risk is involved. In urging that
the charge be apportioned on a daily
basis, the witness contended th at delin
quent handlers should be assessed for
only the number of days that the pay
ment is actually late, rather than be
assessed on the basis of a monthly charge
as under other orders.
A number of handlers, although they
did not testify at the hearing on this is
sue, submitted briefs in which they set
forth varying positions on the proposed
late-payment charge. Several suggested
th a t a “grace” period be provided, with
the charge not becoming applicable until
3 to 7 days after the due date for the
payment. This, they claimed, is needed
to accommodate weekends, holidays, and
delays in mail delivery that could result
in handlers’ payments not reaching the
market administrator by the payment
deadline. One handler contended th at the
charge should be based on the prime rate
plus 2 percentage points. Another urged
a fixed charge of 0.75 percent per month.
Several handlers held that if a late-payment charge is adopted the charge should
apply not only to late payments from
handlers to the market administrator
but to late payments or refunds from
the market administrator’s office to han
dlers as well.
It is essential to the effective operation
of the order that handlers make their
payments to the market administrator
on time. Under the present marketwide
pooling arrangement, it is necessary that
handlers with Class I utilization higher
than the market average pay part of
their total use value of milk-to the pro
ducer settlement fund. Through this
means, money is made available to han
dlers with lower than average Class I
utilization so that all handlers in the
market, irrespective of the way they use
the milk, can pay their producers the
uniform price. The success of this ar
rangement depends on the solvency of
the producer settlement fund.
»
Also, the prompt payment of amounts
due the administrative expense fund is
essential to the performance by the m ar
ket administrator of the various admin
istrative functions prescribed by the
order. Delinquent payments to this fund
could impair the ability of the market
administrator to carry out his duties in a
timely and efficient manner.
Payment delinquency also results in
an inequity among handlers. Handlers
who pay late are, in effect, borrowing
money from producers. In the absence
of any late-payment charge that is at
least as much as the cost of borrowing
from commercial sources, handlers who
are delinquent in their payments have
a financial advantage relative to those
handlers making timely payments.
Data placed in the record by a repre
sentative of the market administrator’s
office indicate a late-payment experience
of a serious and continuing nature on
the part of handlers in the New YorkNew Jersey market. For the 12-month
period of January through December
1975, the market administrator issued
1,119 charge billings to handlers. These
covered the monthly obligations of
handlers to the producer settlement and
administrative expense funds, all of
which were due by the 18th day of the
following month (i.e., payments were to
be received« by the market administrator
by th at d ate). For this period, only 216
payments were received by the market
administrator on time. This payment de
linquency probably can be attributed in
part, however, to the relatively short time
between the mailing of the billings to
handlers, which was completed by the
market administrator’s office a t the
latest by the 15th of the month, and the
date by which the payments were due.
Nevertheless,.even by the 21st day of the
month, which should have been sufficient
time for the transmission of the billings
and payments through the mail, only
630 payments, or 56 percent of the pay
ments due, were received by the market
administrator. On a monthly basis, the
percentage of payments received by the
21st ranged from 48 percent to 65 per
cent. For the year, 203 of the 1,119 pay
ments due were still outstanding at the
end of the m onth'in which the billings
were made.
In terms of money owed, the data in
dicate th at for the 12-month period
nearly one-fourth of the money due the
market administrator had not yet been
received by the 21st day of the month.
On the basis of this payment experi
ence, it is appropriate to institute a latepayment charge on handler payments to
the market administrator th at are over
due. In the absence of a late-payment
charge, handlers have little incentive to
make their payments to the market ad
ministrator on time. Enforcement action
may be taken, of course, to seek strict
handler compliance with the payment
dates. However, this is a cumbersome ad
ministrative route, and the practicalness
of such action becomes questionable in
the case of handlers who are only sev
eral days late. While the charge adopted
herein may not result in strict compli
ance by all handlers, it should provide
handlers a substantial inducement to
make their payments to the market ad
ministrator on time.
The late-payment charge should be
established a t the rate of 1 percent per
month of the unpaid balance. If the
charge is to have any impact on handlers
in terms of encouraging prompt pay
ments, it must be an amount that is at
least as much as what a delinquent
handler would be charged by commer
cial banks for money borrowed for short
term purposes. If this is not so, handlers
who may have financial problems would
be encouraged to delay their payments,
knowing that the charge under the order
is cheaper than borrowing money com
mercially a t a higher loan rate. Under
present conditions, a monthly charge of
1 percent should provide reasonable as
surance that producer funds do not rep
resent the cheapest source of money.
As noted earlier, it was proposed that
the late-payment charge be a variable
charge th a t parallels the movements of
the “prime rate.” I t also was proposed
th at the charge be apportioned on a
daily basis so that a handler would be
assessed for only the number of days he
was actually late in making his payment.
These procedures should not be adopted.
I f the late-payment charge were treated
strictly as interest and computed on a
daily basis, the order would merely rep
resent a banking service for handlers
who desire to use producer funds as an
alternative source of money a t the going
interest rate. This is not the intended
purpose of the late-payment charge.
Rather, it is to be a penalty, in effect,
th at will induce handlers to pay their
obligations to the market administrator
on time.
In their brief, certain handlers con
tended th at the Secretary has no au
thority under the Act to impose a “pen
alty” on a handler under the terms of a
milk order. We do not take this position.
Instead, we contend that a late-payment
charge, or “penalty,” may be adopted
under the statutory authority set forth
in section 608c (7) (D) of the Act. This
subsection specifies that an order may
contain various terms that are inciden
tal to, and not inconsistent with, the
terms explicitly authorized by the Act if
the incidental terms are found neces
sary to effectuate the other provisions
of the order. The late-payment charge
adopted herein is considered essential to
the effectuation of the payment provi
sions of the order.
The Act does contain provisions in sec
tion 608c(14) pertaining to certain pen
alties. In short, these provisions specify
that a handler shall be fined a monetary
amount upon being convicted of violat
ing a provision of an order. However, we
do not look upon these provisions as pre
cluding the use of a late-payment charge,
or “penalty,” on overdue accounts.
No “grace” period should be provided
in applying the late-payment charge, as
FIDERAI. REGISTER, VOL. 4 2 , N O . 6 9 — M O N D A Y , APRIL 11, 1 9 7 7

several handlers urged in their briefs. I t
was their concern th at the payment dates
in the order would not accommodate the
normal time required for billings to reach
handlers and for the handlers to process
the billings and have their payments
reach the market administrator. For this
reasons, they asked that- any late-payment charge not apply until several days
after the due date of the payment.
On the basis of a hearing held in Sep
tember 1976 for the New York-New Je r
sey market, several changes were made in
payment dates prescribed by the order.1
These changes, in part, require that pay
ments by handlers to the market admin
istrator be received by the market admintrator no later than the 21st day of
the month rather than by the 18th day.
This extended period should provide a
reasonable time for billings to reach han
dlers and for handlers to get their pay
ments to the market administrator.
Moreover, the order changes resulting
from the September 1976 hearing should
accommodate those occasions when the
date by which payments to the market
administrator are due falls on a weekend
or holiday. When this happens, the due
date of the payment would be the next
day that the market administrator’s office
is open for business.
Under these new arrangements, there
would would appear to be no necessity
for a grace period before applying the
late-payment charge. It must be recog
nized that with a grace period handlers
actually. would have little incentive to
have their payments arrive at the mar
ket administrator’s office prior to the end
of the grace period, even though the due
date actually was a few days earlier.
Under the provisions adopted herein,
overdue handler obligations tha£ are
payable to the market administrator
would be increased by 1 percent on the
first day after the due date. Any re
maining unpaid portion of the original
obligation would be further increased by
1 percent on the same date of each suc
ceeding month until the obligation is
paid. The additional late-payment
charge would apply not only to the
original obligation but also to any unpaid
late-payment charges previously as
sessed.
At the time the adopted provisions be
come effective, there may be handlers
with obligations already overdue. To the
extent of any remaining unpaid balance
on the 22nd day of the month in which
the amendments adopted herein become
effective, the newly-adopted late-payment charge should apply even though
the obligation was incurred prior to the
institution of the charge under the order.
The order should not provide for any
late-payment charge on payments to
handlers from the producer settlement
fund by the market administrator. There
are no circumstances in which the mar
ket administrator would not promptly

P R IV A C Y ACT O F 1974
Revised System Notices
Note: This document was originally published at 42 F R 16121 on
Thursday, March 24, 1977. The appendix and systems of records
were inadvertently omitted at that time. The document is being
published in its entirety below.
The Department of the Interior hereby republishes below the
notices describing the systems of records which it maintains which
are subject to the requirements of section 3 of the Privacy Act of
1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a. This republication replaces all previous notice
publications by the Department of the Interior.
The notices set out below are similar to those published in the
Federal Register for September 21, 1976 (41 F.R. 41222-41327) with
the following exceptions:
1. A table of contents has been added, as has an appendix listing
the addresses of facilities of the Department maintaining records
subject to Privacy Act.
2. As part of the Department’s effort to simplify and clarify its
Privacy Act system notices some notices have been rewritten in
whole or in part. These are revisions of style only, however, and
do not affect the substance of the notices^3. The “ Routine Use” paragraphs contained in the notices
published in September 21, 1976, were proposed paragraphs, com
ments upon which were solicited. Pursuant to authority granted by
5 U.S.C. 552a, these paragraphs are now adopted as final “ Routine
Uses,” replacing the “ Routine Uses” contained in the original (and
now obsolete) group of system notices which the Department of the
Interior published in its 1975 annual notice publication (40 FR
41432-41507, 43467-43477, 46066-46074, 47985-47992, 50434).
4. In response to the request for comments, on the proposed
“ Routine Uses,” several comments were received suggesting addi
tion of a “ Routine Use” to Bureau of Indian Affairs systems 4
(Indian Land Records), 5 (Indian Land Leases) and 12 (Indian
Trust Land Mortgages) permitting disclosure to title insurance and
abstracting companies and attorneys for purposes of determining
ownership of and encumbrances against title. The Department
agrees that such a “ Routine Use” is necessary to facilitate land
transactions involving Indian land and accordingly proposes adop
tion of a new “ Routine Use” for the three systems.
5. Seven new systems are proposed to be added. These are Fish
and Wildlife Service-28, Avitrol Authorization Records; Fish and
Wildlife Service-29, Animal Damage Control Non-Federal Person
nel Records; Bureau of Land Management-24, Copy Fee Deposit
Records; Bureau of Land Management-27, Real Estate Appraiser
Roster; Bureau of Land Management-28, Adopt A Wild Horse Pro
gram Records; Bureau of Land Management-29, Recordation of
Mining Claims Records; and Office of the Secretary-82, Depart
mental Manager Development Program Records.
Comments on the proposed new “ Routine Uses” and the
proposed new system notices may be submitted to the Departmen
tal Privacy Act Officer, Office of Administrative and Management
Policy, U.S. Department of the Interior, 18th and C Streets, NW.,
Washington, D.C. 20240. Comments received on or before June 1,
1977, will be considered. Copies of any comments which are
received will be available for inspection at the above address.

Categories of individuals covered by the system: The system con
tains information on: (1) Persons applying for bird banding permits.
(2) Persons issued bird banding permits. (3) Persons reporting upon
banded birds encountered in the wild. (4) Persons participating in
migratory bird population surveys. (S) Persons submitting harvest
data for migratory game birds taken under hunting regulations. (6)
Unidentified persons observed in the field hunting migratory game
birds.
Authority for maintenance of the system: Migratory Bird Treaty
Act of July 3, 1918 (16 U.S.C. 703-711; 40 Stat. 755).
Routine uses of records maintained in the system, including catego
ries of users and the purposes of such uses: The primary uses of the
records maintained in the system are (a) data are routinely used by
biologists and/or law enforcement offices of the U. S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, Canadian Wildlife Service, Mexican Department
Fauna Silvestre, and State and Provincial Conservation Agencies to
further understanding, protection, management and utilization of
the North American migratory bird resource; (b) portions of the
data files including name and address listings are used for research
purposes and for guidance, planning and coordination of research
on migratory birds; (c) reports of summarized and analyzed data
originating from banding and surveys are analyzed and published
by the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other cooperating agen
cies: studies containing analyzed migratory bird population and har
vest data also appear in the technical literature involving the
records or the subject matter of the records. Disclosures outside
the Department of the Interior may be made (1) to the U. S. De
partment of Justice when related to litigation or anticipated litiga
tion; (2) of information that may aid investigations or indicating a
violation or potential violation of a statute, regulation, rule, order
or license, to appropriate Federal, State, local or foreign agencies
responsible for investigating or prosecuting the violation or for en
forcing or implementing the statute, rule, regulation, order or
license; (3) from the record of an individual in response'to an
inquiry from a Congressional office made at the request of that in
dividual; (4) to a Federal agency which has requested information
relevant or necessary to its hiring or retention of an employee, or
issuance of a security clearance, license, contract, grant or other
benefit; (5) to Federal, State or local agencies where necessary to
"Obtain information relevant to the hiring or retention of an em
ployee, or the issuance of a security clearance, contract, license,
grant or other benefit; (6) to the Canadian Wildlife Service, En
vironmental Management Service, Department of the Environment,
Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1A OH3 and Mexican Direccion
General Fauna Silvestre, Aquiles Serdan 28-70, Pisa, Mexico 3,
DF, Mexico, as part of cooperative agreements; (7) routinely or
upon request all or portions of the files, including name and ad
dress listings, are supplied ta cooperators and researchers in other
Federal, State, and local agencies; members of national, regional or
local conservation organizations, university researchers and private
individuals who establish a bona fide need for the information; (8)
to contributors of band recovery information related to the bander
and banding of the banded bird they reported, likewide, contribu
tors of survey and harvest information are sometimes supplied with
reports of populations and harvest surveys to which they had con
tributed. (Routine uses (1) and (2) apply only to those individuals in
nos. (1) and (2) of the above paragraph ‘Categories of individuals
covered by the system/ and not to individuals who supply volunta
ry information to aid the Service in migratory bird management and
research).
Policies and practices for storing, retrieving, accessing, retaining,
and disposing of records in the system: (1) Storage — records com
prising the various files of the system are maintained on paper
forms and correspondence, punched and/or interpreted cards, mag
netic computer tape, computer printouts or listings, magnetic disc
packs, microfilm, and microfiche cards. Summarized information is
found in unpublished and published reports. (2) Retrievability -- the
files comprising the system are indexed in various ways depending
upon the nature and use of the record. Files may be arranged by
type of survey,' species of migratory birds, cooperators, time
periods, geographical areas, and biological characteristics of the
banded, observed, or harvested bird. Most of the files are oriented
to the migratory bird resource and its utilization; the identity of the
individual person is retained only -for edit, banding authority com
pliance; response, and acknowledgement purposes. In the banding
files the identity of the bander is permanently obtainable through
interpretation of the permit number. Inasmuch as binding and othersurveys of migratory birds and their harvest are based upon statisti
cal sampling of a larger universe, the identity of individuals is
usually deleted early in the analysis. (3) Safeguards - records com
prising the system are stored within the fenced and locked premises
of the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, Laurel, Maryland. The
records themselves are stored within a locked building and the
master computer files are retained in a locked vault. Only
authorized individuals have access to these records. Magnetic tape
files containing records of banded birds are stored for computer
processing at the Washington Computer Center of the Department
of the Interior. Current versions of banding tape files are stored in
a locked, fire and explosion proof vault. Backup versions are
stored in a library that must be entered through two locked doors.
All requests for data, beyond those routinely supplied to coopera
tors, are reviewed by the Assistant Chief, Office of Migratory Bird
Management, Laurel, Maryland. Care is taken to insure that the
requesting individual has a legitimate need for the information and
that the information which is supplied is limited to his specific
needs. Furthermore, care is taken to protect the proprietary rights
of researchers to first use of data arising from their personal band
ing efforts; persons requesting data generated by other researchers
are instructed to secure clearance for use of the data with the
original bander. Policies regarding the release and use of bird band
ing data are developed in consultation with the Canadian Wildlife
Service and other cooperators. Means for developing improved
safeguards for the computer record files at Laurel, and policies re
garding release of data from the files maintained there is presently
under study. (4) Retention and Disposal — some records are main
tained only for a few days until the data can be transferred to other
media, such as computer tapes or microfilm, for permanent storage.
Because of the great scientific value attached to some of the files,
such as those comprising the North American Bird Banding Pro
gram, source documents of banding are retained indefinitely; this is
done to facilitate the possible correction and edit of those records.
In contrast, source documents for other files are periodically
destroyed by recycling. Computer tabulations are retained for five
years or until such time as they have been updated. A system to
catalog computer files is being developed; this system will insure
that obsolete files are destroyed while insuring the retention of
those required for current or future use.
