Olives Grown in California; Redistricting and Reapportionment of Producer Membership on the California Olive Committee

Zusammenfassung

This rule invites comments on the redefinition of the producer districts and reapportionment of each district's membership on the California Olive Committee (committee). The Federal marketing order for California olives (order) regulates the handling of canned ripe olives grown in California and is administered locally by the committee. This rule would reduce the number of producer districts in the production area from four to two and would reapportion the committee representation from each district to reflect the consolidation. These changes would reflect recent shifts in olive acreage and producer numbers within the production area and would provide equitable committee representation from each district.
