SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview of This Information
Collection
Agency: Agricultural Marketing
Service (AMS).
Title: Cranberries grown in States of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New Jersey, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon,
Washington, and Long Island in the
State of New York; Marketing Order No.
929.
OMB Number: 0581–NEW.
Type of Request: New Information
Collection.
Abstract: The information
requirements in this request are
essential to carry out the intent of the
Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act
of 1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601–674),
hereinafter referred to as the ‘‘Act’’, to
provide the respondents the type of
service they request, and to administer
the cranberry marketing order program.
The United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) is responsible for
overseeing Marketing Agreement and
Order No. 929, as amended (7 CFR part
929), regulating the handling of
cranberries grown in the states of
Massachusetts, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New Jersey, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon,
Washington, and Long Island in the
State of New York, hereinafter referred
to as the ‘‘order.’’ The order is effective
under the Act.
On August 31, 2017, the Cranberry
Marketing Committee (Committee)
recommended establishing a handler
withhold volume regulation for the
2017–18 season in response to
historically high inventory levels for
cranberries. Following the
recommendation for the handler
withhold, the Committee developed the
forms necessary to effectively carry out
the handler withhold. Given that the
industry has begun harvesting the 2017–
18 crop, these forms need to be effective
immediately.
On September 15, 2017, the
Committee unanimously recommended
that cranberry handlers covered under
the order provide the Committee with a
report indicating the anticipated total
quantity of cranberries acquired by the
handler, the amount withheld from
handling, and the disposition of such
