DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Office of the Secretary
USDA Reassigns Domestic Cane
Sugar Allotments and Increases the
Fiscal Year 2011 Raw Sugar Tariff-Rate
Quota
Office of the Secretary, USDA.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Secretary of Agriculture
today announced a reassignment of
surplus sugar under domestic cane
sugar allotments of 325,000 short tons
raw value (STRV) to imports, and
increased the fiscal year (FY) 2011 raw
sugar tariff-rate quota (TRQ) by the same
amount.
DATES: Effective: April 12, 2011.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: USDA’s
Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC)
today announces the reassignment of
projected surplus cane sugar marketing
allotments under the FY 2011 (October
1, 2010–September 30, 2011) Sugar
Marketing Allotment Program. The FY
2011 cane sector allotment and cane
state allotments are larger than can be
fulfilled by domestically-produced cane
sugar, so the surplus was reassigned to
raw sugar imports as required by law.
Upon review of the domestic sugarcane
processors’ sugar marketing allocations
relative to their FY 2011 expected raw
sugar supplies, CCC determined that all
sugarcane processors had surplus
allocation. Therefore, all sugarcane
states’ sugar marketing allotments are
reduced with this reassignment. The
new cane state allotments are Florida,
1,856,850 STRV; Louisiana, 1,577,810

Jkt 223001
STRV; Texas, 173,016 STRV; and
Hawaii, 283,216 STRV. The FY 2011
sugar marketing allotment program will
not prevent any domestic sugarcane
processors from marketing all of their
FY 2011 sugar supply.
On August 5, 2010, USDA established
the FY 2011 TRQ for raw cane sugar at
1,231,497 STRV (1,117,195 metric tons
raw value, MTRV*), the minimum the
United States is committed under the
World Trade Organization (WTO)
Uruguay Round Agreements. Pursuant
to Additional U.S. Note 5 to Chapter 17
of the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule
(HTS) and Section 359k of the
Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, as
amended, the Secretary of Agriculture
today increased the quantity of raw cane
sugar imports of the HTS subject to the
lower tier of duties during FY 2011 by
325,000 STRV. With this increase, the
overall FY 2011 raw sugar TRQ is now
1,556,497 STRV (1,412,030 MTRV). Raw
cane sugar under this quota must be
accompanied by a certificate for quota
eligibility and may be entered under
subheading 1701.11.10 of the HTS until
September 30, 2011. The Office of the
U.S. Trade Representative will allocate
this increase among supplying countries
and customs areas.
This action is being taken after a
determination that additional supplies
of raw cane sugar are required in the
U.S. market. USDA will closely monitor
stocks, consumption, imports and all
sugar market and program variables on
an ongoing basis, and may make further
program adjustments during FY 2011 if
needed.
