Jkt 238001
This proposal invites
comments on prescribing late payment
and interest charges on past due
assessments under the Christmas Tree
Promotion, Research, and Information
Order (Order). The Order is
administered by the Christmas Tree
Promotion Board (Board) with oversight
by the U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA). Under the Order, assessments
are collected from domestic producers
and importers and used for research and
promotion projects designed to maintain
and expand the market for fresh cut
Christmas trees. This proposal would
implement authority contained in the
Order that allows the Board to collect
late payment and interest charges on
past due assessments. If this rule is
finalized, it is proposed that late
payment and interest charges would
begin to accrue on unpaid assessments
beginning 30 days after the effective
date of the final rule. One additional
change would provide authority in the
Order for the Board to change the crop
year and fiscal period through
administrative action. This action
would contribute to effective
administration of the program.
DATES: Comments must be received by
March 16, 2016.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments
concerning this rule. Comments may be
submitted on the Internet at: https://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
proposed rule is issued under the Order
(7 CFR part 1214). The Order is
authorized under the Commodity
Promotion, Research, and Information
Act of 1996 (1996 Act) (7 U.S.C. 7411–
7425).
Executive Order 12866 and Executive
Order 13563
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
direct agencies to assess all costs and
benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, if regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, distributive impacts and equity).
Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the
importance of quantifying both costs
and benefits, reducing costs,
harmonizing rules and promoting
flexibility. This action has been
designated as a ‘‘non-significant
regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866. Accordingly,
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) has waived the review process.
Executive Order 13175
This action has been reviewed in
accordance with the requirements of
Executive Order 13175, Consultation
and Coordination with Indian Tribal
Governments. The review reveals that
this regulation would not have
substantial and direct effects on Tribal
governments and would not have
significant Tribal implications.
Executive Order 12988
This rulemaking has been reviewed
under Executive Order 12988, Civil
Justice Reform. It is not intended to
have retroactive effect. Section 524 of
the 1996 Act (7 U.S.C. 7423) provides
that it shall not affect or preempt any
