Raisins Produced From Grapes Grown in California; Removal of an Exemption for Raisins Produced in Southern California and Exported to Mexico

Riepilogo

This final rule revises the administrative rules and regulations established under the Federal marketing order for raisins produced from grapes grown in California. It removes a provision that currently exempts raisins produced from grapes dried on the vine in southern California and exported to Mexico from all marketing order requirements. This rule is based on a unanimous recommendation of the Raisin Administrative Committee (Committee), which is responsible for local administration of the order. Elimination of the exemption will facilitate administration and improve enforcement efforts.
