Background
The 2006 grain harvest is expected to
exceed available commercial grain
storage space in certain areas. USWA
grain licensees may request, through
FSA, licensing of temporary grain
storage space under the USWA (7 U.S.C.
241 et. seq.) under the terms announced
in this notice.
Temporary Grain Storage

Upon written application, the USWA
will continue to authorize and license
the use of temporary grain storage space.
Such space may be used from the time
of initial licensing until July 1, 2007.
Temporary grain storage structures must

be operated in conjunction with a
USWA-licensed grain warehouse.
In addition:
1. An asphalt, concrete, or other
approved base material must be used.
2. Rigid self-supporting sidewalls
must be used.
3. Aeration must be provided.
4. Acceptable covering, as determined
by FSA, must be provided.
5. Grain must be fully insured for all
losses.
6. Warehouse operators must meet all
financial and bonding requirements of
the USWA.
7. Warehouse operators must
maintain a separate record of all grain
stored in temporary grain storage space
and must account for such grain in the
Daily Position Record.
Application for Temporary Grain
Storage
USWA licensees should direct
questions regarding the use of
temporary grain storage to Terry
Chapman, Chief, Licensing Branch,

Warehouse Operator’s Liability
The authorization and licensing of
temporary grain storage space does not
relieve warehouse operators of their
obligations under the USWA or 7 CFR
part 735.
Warehouse operators are responsible
for the quantity and quality of grain
stored in temporary grain storage space
to the same extent as their liability for
licensed grain storage space. All grain
stored in temporary grain storage space
is considered a part of the warehouse
operator’s commingled grain inventory.
The Department of Agriculture
strongly recommends that warehouse
operators review their warehouse
security plans and conduct a prudent
risk assessment in connection with the
application of temporary grain storage
space. Warehouse operators may want
to pay particular attention to threats that
may not have been considered
significant in the past and consider
restricting access to facilities to
authorized personnel only.
