Proposed Posting, Posting, and
Deposting of Stockyards
Grain Inspection, Packers and

SUMMARY: We propose to post one
stockyard. We have received
information that the stockyard meets the

Sfmt 4703
definition of a stockyard under the
Packers and Stockyards Act and,
therefore, needs to be posted. Posted
stockyards are subject to the provisions
of the Packers and Stockyards Act. We
have posted seven stockyards. We
determined that the stockyards meet the
definition of a stockyard under the
Packers and Stockyards Act and,
therefore, have been posted. Four
facilities, for which notices of proposed
posting were announced, were not
posted because they no longer meet the
definition of a stockyard. These
facilities were either abandoned or
underwent a change so they no longer
function as a stockyard. We are also
deposting four stockyards. These
facilities can no longer be used as a
stockyard and, therefore, are no longer
required to be posted.
DATES: For the proposed posting of
stockyards, we will consider comments
that we receive by July 5, 2006.
For the deposted stockyards, the
deposting is effective on June 19, 2006.
ADDRESSES: We invite you to submit
comments on this notice. You may
submit comments by any of the
following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Grain
Inspection, Packers and Stockyards
Administration (GIPSA) administers
and enforces the Packers and Stockyards
Act of 1921, as amended and
supplemented (7 U.S.C. 181—229) (P&S
Act). The P&S Act prohibits unfair,
deceptive, and fraudulent practices by
livestock market agencies, dealers,
stockyard owners, meat packers, swine
contractors, and live poultry dealers in
the livestock, poultry, and meatpacking
industries.
Section 302 of the P&S Act (7 U.S.C.
202) defines the term ‘‘stockyard’’ as
follows: any place, establishment, or
facility commonly known as stockyards,
conducted, operated, or managed for
profit or nonprofit as a public market for
livestock producers, feeders, market
agencies, and buyers, consisting of pens,
or other inclosures, and their
appurtenances, in which live cattle,
sheep, swine, horses, mules, or goats are

Section 302 (b) of the P&S Act
requires the Secretary to determine
which stockyards meet this definition,
and to notify the owner of the stockyard
and the public of that determination by
posting a notice in each designated
stockyard. After giving notice to the
stockyard owner and to the public, the
stockyard will be subject to the
provisions of Title III of the P&S Act (7
U.S.C. 201–203 and 205–217a) until the
Secretary deposts the stockyard by
public notice.
This document notifies the stockyard
owners and the public that the
following stockyard meets the definition
of stockyard and that we propose to
designate the stockyard as a posted
stockyard.

published notices proposing to post
these 7 stockyards on July 6, 2004 and
July 25, 2005 (69 FR 40597 and 70 FR

comments in response to these proposed
posting notices. To post a stockyard, we
assign the stockyard a facility number,
notify the owner of the stockyard
facility, and send notices to the owner
of the stockyard to post on display in
public areas of the stockyard. The date
of posting is the date on which the
posting notices are physically

Additionally, this document notifies
the public that the following four
stockyards no longer meet the definition
of stockyard and that we are deposting
the facilities. We depost a stockyard
when the facility can no longer be used
as a stockyard. Some of the reasons a
facility can no longer be used as a
stockyard include: The facility has been
moved and the posted facility is
abandoned, the facility has been torn
down or otherwise destroyed, such as
by fire, the facility is dilapidated
beyond repair, or the facility has been
