Raisins Produced From Grapes Grown in California and Imported Raisins; Removal of Language

Streszczenie

This proposed rule invites comments on a recommendation by the Raisin Administrative Committee (Committee) to the remove the term "midget" from the minimum grade standards of the California raisin marketing order (order). The marketing order regulates the handling of raisins produced from grapes grown in California, and is administered locally by the Committee. Recently, the U.S. Standards for Grades of Processed Raisins (standards) were amended to remove the word "midget." The proposed change would make the marketing order consistent with the amended standards. Furthermore, this rule would make a corresponding change to the raisin import regulation as required by the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as amended, when changes are made to the size, grade, maturity, or quality requirements of the order.
