Eastland Counties in Texas.

DATES: Effective Date: August 21, 2006.

ADDRESSES: USDA, GIPSA, Karen Guagliardo, Review Branch Chief,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Guagliardo at 202-720-7312, e-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This action has been reviewed and determined 
not to be a rule or regulation as defined in Executive Order 12866 and 
Departmental Regulation 1512-1; therefore, the Executive Order and 
Departmental Regulation do not apply to this action.
    In the March 13, 2006, Federal Register (71 FR 12675), GIPSA asked 
persons interested in providing official services in Clay, Montague, 
Cooke, Grayson, Fannin, Lamar, Red River, Young, Stephen, and Eastland 
Counties in Texas to submit an application for designation by April 12, 
2006.
    There were two applicants for the Texas area: Enid Grain Inspection 
Company, Inc. (Enid) and Intercontinental Grain Inspections Inc. 
(Intercontinental); both currently designated official agencies. Enid 
applied for designation to provide official services in Clay, Montague, 
Cooke, and Grayson Counties. Intercontinental applied for all of the 
counties announced in the March 13, 2006, Federal Register. GIPSA asked 
for comments on Enid and Intercontinental in the May 12, 2006, Federal 
Register (71 FR 27672). The geographic area specified in the March 13, 
2006 Federal Register notice erroneously included Clay County. This 
county is currently assigned to another official agency and therefore 
is not open for designation in this action.
    Comments were due by June 12, 2006. GIPSA received one comment from 
an elevator manager in Lamar County, supporting Intercontinental for 
designation.
    GIPSA evaluated all available information regarding the designation 
criteria in Section 7(f)(l)(A) of the Act and, according to Section 
7(f)(l)(B), determined that Intercontinental is better able to provide 
official services in the geographic area specified in the March 13, 
2006, Federal Register, for which it applied. Intercontinental was 
previously designated for 18 months only, effective April 10, 2006, and 
terminating September 30, 2007. Intercontinental's designation will be 
amended to include the additional Texas counties. Interested persons 
may obtain official services by calling Intercontinental headquarters 
in Saginaw, Texas at 817-306-8900.

    Authority: 7 U.S.C. 71-87k.
