federal law prohibiting unfair or

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit written comments.
Comments should refer to ‘‘Agrium and
UAP Holding Corp., File No. 081 0073,’’
to facilitate the organization of

form should include this reference both

and must comply with Commission
Rule 4.9(c). 16 CFR 4.9(c) (2005).1 The
FTC is requesting that any comment
filed in paper form be sent by courier or
overnight service, if possible, because
U.S. postal mail in the Washington area
and at the Commission is subject to
delay due to heightened security
precautions. Comments that do not
contain any nonpublic information may
instead be filed in electronic form by
following the instructions on the webbased form at https://
secure.commentworks.com/ftc-Agrium.
To ensure that the Commission
considers an electronic comment, you
must file it on that web-based form.
The FTC Act and other laws the
Commission administers permit the
collection of public comments to
consider and use in this proceeding as
appropriate. All timely and responsive
public comments, whether filed in
paper or electronic form, will be
considered by the Commission, and will
be available to the public on the FTC
website, to the extent practicable, at
www.ftc.gov. As a matter of discretion,
the FTC makes every effort to remove
home contact information for
individuals from the public comments it
receives before placing those comments
on the FTC website. More information,
including routine uses permitted by the
Privacy Act, may be found in the FTC’s
privacy policy, at (https://www.ftc.gov/
ftc/privacy.shtm).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Donald R. Gordon, FTC Bureau of
Competition, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue,
NW, Washington, D.C. 20580, (202) 3262357.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to section 6(f) of the Federal Trade
Commission Act, 38 Stat. 721, 15 U.S.C.
46(f), and § 2.34 of the Commission
Rules of Practice, 16 CFR 2.34, notice is
hereby given that the above-captioned

order to cease and desist, having been

FTC Public Reference Room, Room 130H, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW,
