Watermelon Research and Promotion Plan; Rules and Regulations; Realignment of Districts

摘要

This proposed rule would change the boundaries of five of the seven districts established under the Watermelon Research and Promotion Plan (Plan) to apportion membership on the National Watermelon Promotion Board (Board). This action is necessary to reflect shifts in production since the original districts were established. The Plan requires the periodic realignment of the districts based on shifts in production to ensure equitable representation of producers and handlers on the Board.
