The grants will be fully funded at the beginning of the award, thus requiring that all commodity board funds and NIFA funds be available at the time of the award. Applications submitted under topics provided by commodity boards will be required to include a letter of support from the commodity board that proposed the topic. Evaluation and Notification Process NIFA will screen proposed research topics to ensure they were submitted by eligible commodity boards and consult with USDA’s Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) to determine that submissions and proposed financial contributions are consistent with commodity promotion laws and commodity boards’ charters as applicable. Commodity board topics will be reviewed by an internal panel based on evaluation criteria that were developed using stakeholder input from commodity boards and other stakeholders from government, industry, and academe. Each topic will be evaluated based on: Alignment with one or more of the statutory AFRI priority areas (six AFRI priority areas authorized in the Farm Bill and described in 7 CFR 3430.309); alignment with the President’s budget proposal for NIFA, as identified in the Department of Agriculture’s annual budget submission; and alignment with the priority areas in the AFRI RFAs to be released by NIFA during the fiscal year for which the commodity board is proposing a topic for funding (for example, within the AFRI Foundational Program RFA, the AFRI Animal Health and Production and Animal Product’s ‘‘Animal Reproduction’’ priority area). From those topics received by COB (5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time) on July 18, 2016, NIFA will select the topic(s) that were evaluated favorably for inclusion in the appropriate FY 2017 AFRI RFA. NIFA will notify commodity boards whether their topics will be included by August 16, 2016. Based on the evaluation, NIFA reserves the right to negotiate with commodity boards should changes be required for topics and funding amounts to be accepted. Any changes to topics and funding amounts will be reviewed by USDA’s AMS to determine if such changes are consistent with applicable commodity promotion laws. NIFA will evaluate topics submitted after the July 18, 2016 deadline on an annual basis and notify commodity boards whether their topics will be included in subsequent RFAs within two weeks following the meeting of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:10 May 17, 2016 Jkt 238001 internal evaluation panel, the date of which will be published on NIFA’s Commodity Boards Web page at (https:// nifa.usda.gov/commodity-boards/). Done at Washington, DC this 12th day of May, 2016. Sonny Ramaswamy, Director, National Institute of Food and Agriculture.

grantee's ``service area'' in the context of the FTZ Board's standard

ASF on May 13, 2011 (Board Order 1761, 76 FR 29725, May 23, 2011). The 
zone currently has a service area that includes western Riverside 
County, California.
    The applicant is now requesting authority to expand the service 
area of the zone to include the City of Lake Elsinore, as described in 
the application. If approved, the grantee would be able to serve sites

designation. The application indicates that the proposed expanded 
service area is adjacent to the Los Angeles/Long Beach U.S. Customs and 
Border Protection Port of Entry.
