SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Foreign Agricultural Service, under a
delegation of authority from the
Secretary of Agriculture, administers the
Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota
Licensing Regulation codified at 7 CFR
6.20–6.37 that provides for the issuance
of licenses to import certain dairy
articles under tariff-rate quotas (TRQs)
as set forth in the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States. These
dairy articles may only be entered into
the United States at the low-tier tariff by
or for the account of a person or firm to
whom such licenses have been issued
and only in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the regulation.
Licenses are issued on a calendar year
basis, and each license authorizes the
license holder to import a specified
quantity and type of dairy article from
a specified country of origin. The Import
and Trade Support Programs Division,
Foreign Agricultural Service, U.S.
Department of Agriculture, issues these
licenses and, in conjunction with the
U.S. Customs and Border Protection,
U.S. Department of Homeland Security,
monitors their use.
The regulation at 7 CFR 6.34(a) states:
‘‘Whenever a historical license
(Appendix 1) is not issued to an
applicant pursuant to the provisions of
§ 6.23, is permanently surrendered or is
revoked by the Licensing Authority, the
amount of such license will be
transferred to Appendix 2.’’ Section
6.34(b) provides that the cumulative
annual transfers will be published in the
Federal Register. Accordingly, this
document sets forth the revised
Appendices for the 2008 tariff-rate quota
year.

The regulations in 9 CFR part 93

prohibit or restrict the importation of
certain animals into the United States to
prevent the introduction of pests and
diseases of livestock and poultry,
including New World screwworm

provisions for the inspection and

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document sets forth the revised appendices to the Dairy
Tariff-Rate Import Quota Licensing Regulation for the 2008 quota year
reflecting the cumulative annual transfers from Appendix 1 to Appendix
2 for certain dairy product import licenses permanently surrendered by
licensees or revoked by the Licensing Authority.
DATES: Effective Date: August 29, 2008.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jorge Martinez, Dairy Import Licensing
Program, Import and Trade Support Programs Division, STOP 1021, U.S.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Foreign Agricultural Service, under a
delegation of authority from the Secretary of Agriculture, administers
the Dairy Tariff-Rate Import Quota Licensing Regulation codified at 7
CFR 6.20-6.37 that provides for the issuance of licenses to import
certain dairy articles under tariff-rate quotas (TRQs) as set forth in
the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States. These dairy
articles may only be entered into the United States at the low-tier
tariff by or for the account of a person or firm to whom such licenses
have been issued and only in accordance with the terms and conditions
of the regulation.
Licenses are issued on a calendar year basis, and each license
authorizes the license holder to import a specified quantity and type
of dairy article from a specified country of origin. The Import and
Trade Support Programs Division, Foreign Agricultural Service, U.S.
Department of Agriculture, issues these licenses and, in conjunction
with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Department of
Homeland Security, monitors their use.
The regulation at 7 CFR 6.34(a) states: ``Whenever a historical
license (Appendix 1) is not issued to an applicant pursuant to the
provisions of Sec. 6.23, is permanently surrendered or is revoked by
the Licensing Authority, the amount of such license will be transferred
to Appendix 2.'' Section 6.34(b) provides that the cumulative annual
transfers will be published in the Federal Register. Accordingly, this
document sets forth the revised Appendices for the 2008 tariff-rate
quota year.
