Raisins Produced From Grapes Grown in California; Change to 
Reporting Requirements Regarding Other Seedless Raisins; Correction

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.

ACTION: Correcting amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

[[Page 33852]]

SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service published a final rule in 
the Federal Register on September 28, 2004 (69 FR 57822). The document 
changed reporting requirements regarding Other Seedless varietal type 
raisins under the California raisin marketing order. However, three 
paragraphs in one subpart of the marketing order's rules and 
regulations were inadvertently omitted from subsequent issues of the 
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This document identifies the three 
paragraphs in the subpart that need to be reinserted into Title 7 of 
the CFR, Part 989.

DATES: Effective Date: Effective on June 20, 2007.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rose Aguayo, Marketing Specialist, or 
Kurt J. Kimmel, Regional Manager, Marketing Order Administration 
Branch, Fruit and Vegetable Programs, AMS, USDA; Telephone: (559) 487-
5901, Fax: (559) 487-5906; or E-mail: Rose.Aguayo@usda.gov or 
Kurt.Kimmel@usda.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document provides correcting amendments 
to Marketing Order 989 found at 7 CFR part 989 so that handlers of 
organically-produced Other Seedless varietal type raisins continue to 
report inventory, acquisitions, and disposition of such raisins to the 
Raisin Administrative Committee.
