inspection and weighing services and to
charge and collect reasonable fees for
performing these services. The fees
collected are to cover, as nearly as
practicable, costs for performing these
services, including associated
administrative and supervisory costs.
The fees are in the regulations at 7 CFR
800.71.
On December 30, 2016, Grain
Inspection, Packers and Stockyards
Administration (GIPSA) published in
the Federal Register (81 FR 96339) a
final rule amending 7 CFR 800.71 in
accordance with the Reauthorizations
Act of 2015, which requires Federal
Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) to
conduct an annual review of the fees
and operating reserve for the purposes
of the annual adjustment of the fees.
GIPSA/AMS Merger
The Secretary delegated to the Under
Secretary for Marketing and Regulatory
Programs (MRP) authorities ‘‘related to
grain inspection, packers and
stockyards.’’ 7 CFR 2.22(a)(3)(i)–(vi). In
7 CFR 2.81, the Under Secretary for
MRP further delegated these authorities
to the Administrator of GIPSA. In a
November 14, 2017 Secretary’s
Memorandum, the Secretary directed
that the authorities at 7 CFR 2.81 be redelegated to the Administrator of AMS,
and that the delegations to the
Administrator of GIPSA be revoked. The
delegations to the Under Secretary of
MRP related to grain inspection, packers
and stockyards at 7 CFR 2.22(a)(3)
remain unchanged. As part of the
reorganization, GIPSA (and FGIS) were
merged into AMS.
Exemption From Notice and Comment
In publishing this final rule, we are
dispensing with the usual notice of
proposed rulemaking and public
comment procedures contained in 5
U.S.C. 553. We have determined that,
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B), good cause
exists for dispensing with the notice of
proposed rulemaking and public
comment procedures for this rule.
Specifically the rulemaking comports
with and is consistent with the statutory
adjustment of fees in section 7 of the
USGSA (7 U.S.C. 79(j)) and the
regulations at 7 CFR 800.71 with no

issue of policy discretion. Accordingly,
we have determined that opportunity
for prior comment is unnecessary and
contrary to the public interest, and we
are issuing this revised regulation as a
final rule that will apply to all national
tonnage fees, local tonnage fees, and
fees for service in 2018.
Fee Calculations
The regulations require FGIS annually
review the national tonnage fees, local
tonnage fees, and fees for service. After
calculating the tonnage fees according to
the regulatory formula in section
800.71(b)(1), FGIS then reviews the
amount of funds in the operating reserve
at the end of the fiscal year (FY2017 in
this case) to ensure that it has 41⁄2
months of operating expenses as
required by section 800.71(b)(2) of the
regulations. If the operating reserve has
more, or less than 41⁄2 months of
operating expenses, then FGIS must
adjust all Schedule A fees. For each
$1,000,000, rounded down, that the
operating reserve varies from the target
of 4 1⁄2 months, FGIS will adjust all
Schedule A fees by 2 percent. If the
operating reserve exceeds the target, all
Schedule A fees will be reduced. If the
operating reserve does not meet target,
all Schedule A fees will be increased.
The maximum annual increase or
decrease in fees is 5 percent (7 CFR
800.71(b)(2)(i)–(ii)).
(a) Tonnage fees for the 5-year rolling
average tonnage were calculated on the
previous 5 fiscal years 2013, 2014, 2015,
2016 and 2017. Tonnage fees consist of
the national tonnage fee and local
tonnage fee and are calculated and
rounded to the nearest $0.001 per metric
ton. The tonnage fees are calculated as
following:
(1) National tonnage fee. The national
tonnage fee is the national program
administrative costs for the previous
fiscal year divided by the average yearly
tons of export grain officially inspected
and/or weighed by delegated States and
designated agencies, excluding land
carrier shipments to Canada and
Mexico, and outbound grain officially
inspected and/or weighed by FGIS
during the previous 5 fiscal years.

(3) Operating reserve. In order to
maintain an operating reserve not less
than 3 and not more than 6 months,
FGIS reviewed the value of the
operating reserve at the end of FY2017
to ensure that an operating reserve of
41⁄2 months is maintained.
The program operating reserve at the
end of fiscal year 2017 was $23,546,619
with a monthly operating expense of
$3,340,024. The target of 4.5 months of
operating reserve is $15,030,108
therefore the operating reserve is greater
than 4.5 times the monthly operating
expenses by $8,516,511. For each
$1,000,000, rounded down, above the
target level, all Schedule A fees must be
reduced by 2 percent. The operating
reserve is $8.5 million above the target
level resulting in a calculated 16 percent
reduction. As required by
5-year Rolling
Average
800.71(b)(2)(ii), the reduction is limited
to 5 percent. Therefore, FGIS is reducing
all Schedule A fees for service in
Schedule A in paragraph (a)(1) by the
maximum 5 percent. All Schedule A
fees for service are rounded to the
nearest $0.10, except for fees based on
tonnage or hundredweight.

Regulatory Flexibility Act
Since grain export volume can vary
significantly from year to year,
estimating the total impact in any single
year can be difficult. AMS recognizes,
however, that the industry needs
predictable inspection and weighing
fees. The regulations at 7 CFR 800.71(b)
set an annual cap of 5 percent for
increases or decreases in inspection and
weighing fees, and the increases and
decreases are fixed according the
statutory requirements of the
Agriculture Reauthorization Act of
2015. This rulemaking is unlikely to

number of small entities.
The provisions of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act relating to an initial and
final regulatory flexibility analysis (5
U.S.C. 603, 604) are not applicable to
this final rule because USDA was not
required to publish notice of proposed
rulemaking under 5 U.S.C. 553 or any
other law. Accordingly, a regulatory
flexibility analysis is not required.

The MCAI states:
It was identified during a recent design
review that power turbine (PT) rotors with
certain disks, part number (P/N) M601–
3220.6 and P/N M601–3220.7, have a
reduction in the declared theoretical PT rotor
overspeed limit.
This condition, if not corrected, may lead
to high energy debris release in case of PT
rotor overspeed occurrence, possibly
resulting in damage to, and/or reduced
control of, the aeroplane.

7 CFR Part 800
Fees for Official Inspection and Official Weighing Services Under
the United States Grain Standards Act (USGSA)
AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, GIPSA, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: USDA, on behalf of the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is
announcing the fee schedule for official inspection and weighing
services performed under the United States Grain Standards Act (USGSA),
as amended, in order to comply with FGIS regulations and the
Agriculture Reauthorizations Act of 2015, and publishing the annual
review of Schedule A fees calculation and the resulting fees that went
into effect on January 1, 2018.
DATES: Effective February 14, 2018.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denise Ruggles, FGIS Executive Program
Analyst, USDA AMS; Telephone: (816) 659-8406; Email:
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
USGSA authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to provide official
grain inspection and weighing services and to charge and collect
reasonable fees for performing these services. The fees collected are
to cover, as nearly as practicable, costs for performing these
services, including associated administrative and supervisory costs.
The fees are in the regulations at 7 CFR 800.71.
On December 30, 2016, Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards
Administration (GIPSA) published in the Federal Register (81 FR 96339)
a final rule amending 7 CFR 800.71 in accordance with the
Reauthorizations Act of 2015, which requires Federal Grain Inspection
Service (FGIS) to conduct an annual review of the fees and operating
reserve for the purposes of the annual adjustment of the fees.
GIPSA/AMS Merger
The Secretary delegated to the Under Secretary for Marketing and
Regulatory Programs (MRP) authorities ``related to grain inspection,
packers and stockyards.'' 7 CFR 2.22(a)(3)(i)-(vi). In 7 CFR 2.81, the
Under Secretary for MRP further delegated these authorities to the
Administrator of GIPSA. In a November 14, 2017 Secretary's Memorandum,
the Secretary directed that the authorities at 7 CFR 2.81 be re-
delegated to the Administrator of AMS, and that the delegations to the
Administrator of GIPSA be revoked. The delegations to the Under
Secretary of MRP related to grain inspection, packers and stockyards at
7 CFR 2.22(a)(3) remain unchanged. As part of the reorganization, GIPSA
(and FGIS) were merged into AMS.
Exemption From Notice and Comment
In publishing this final rule, we are dispensing with the usual
notice of proposed rulemaking and public comment procedures contained
in 5 U.S.C. 553. We have determined that, under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(3)(B),
good cause exists for dispensing with the notice of proposed rulemaking
and public comment procedures for this rule. Specifically the
rulemaking comports with and is consistent with the statutory
adjustment of fees in section 7 of the USGSA (7 U.S.C. 79(j)) and the
regulations at 7 CFR 800.71 with no issue of policy discretion.
Accordingly, we have determined that opportunity for prior comment is
unnecessary and contrary to the public interest, and we are issuing
this revised regulation as a final rule that will apply to all national
tonnage fees, local tonnage fees, and fees for service in 2018.
Fee Calculations
The regulations require FGIS annually review the national tonnage
fees, local tonnage fees, and fees for service. After calculating the
tonnage fees according to the regulatory formula in section
800.71(b)(1), FGIS then reviews the amount of funds in the operating
reserve at the end of the fiscal year (FY2017 in this case) to ensure
that it has 4\1/2\ months of operating expenses as required by section
800.71(b)(2) of the regulations. If the operating reserve has more, or
less than 4\1/2\ months of operating expenses, then FGIS must adjust
all Schedule A fees. For each $1,000,000, rounded down, that the
operating reserve varies from the target of 4 \1/2\ months, FGIS will
adjust all Schedule A fees by 2 percent. If the operating reserve
exceeds the target, all Schedule A fees will be reduced. If the
operating reserve does not meet target, all Schedule A fees will be
increased. The maximum annual increase or decrease in fees is 5 percent
(7 CFR 800.71(b)(2)(i)-(ii)).
(a) Tonnage fees for the 5-year rolling average tonnage were
calculated on the previous 5 fiscal years 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and
2017. Tonnage fees consist of the national tonnage fee and local
tonnage fee and are calculated and rounded to the nearest $0.001 per
metric ton. The tonnage fees are calculated as following:
(1) National tonnage fee. The national tonnage fee is the national
program administrative costs for the previous fiscal year divided by
the average yearly tons of export grain officially inspected and/or
weighed by delegated States and designated agencies, excluding land
carrier shipments to Canada and Mexico, and outbound grain officially
inspected and/or weighed by FGIS during the previous 5 fiscal years.

or weighed by delegated States and designated agencies prior to the
implementation of the fee assessment in the Federal Register (78 FR
22151), effective May 1, 2013.
The national program administrative costs for fiscal year 2017 were
$6,906,527. The fiscal year 2018 national tonnage fee, prior to the
operating reserve review, is calculated to be at $0.060 per metric ton.
(2) Local tonnage fee. The local tonnage fee is the field office
administrative costs for the previous fiscal year divided by the
average yearly tons of outbound grain officially inspected and/or
weighed by the field office during the previous 5 fiscal years.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) Operating reserve. In order to maintain an operating reserve
not less than 3 and not more than 6 months, FGIS reviewed the value of
the operating reserve at the end of FY2017 to ensure that an operating
reserve of 4\1/2\ months is maintained.
The program operating reserve at the end of fiscal year 2017 was
$23,546,619 with a monthly operating expense of $3,340,024. The target
of 4.5 months of operating reserve is $15,030,108 therefore the
operating reserve is greater than 4.5 times the monthly operating
expenses by $8,516,511. For each $1,000,000, rounded down, above the
target level, all Schedule A fees must be reduced by 2 percent. The
operating reserve is $8.5 million above the target level resulting in a
calculated 16 percent reduction. As required by 800.71(b)(2)(ii), the
reduction is limited to 5 percent. Therefore, FGIS is reducing all
Schedule A fees for service in Schedule A in paragraph (a)(1) by the
maximum 5 percent. All Schedule A fees for service are rounded to the
nearest $0.10, except for fees based on tonnage or hundredweight.
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has reviewed this
regulatory action in accordance with the provisions of Executive Order
12866, Regulatory Planning and Review, and has determined that it does
not meet the criteria for significant regulatory action. Additionally,
because this rule does not meet the definition of a significant
regulatory action, it does not trigger the requirements contained in
Executive Order 13771. See OMB's Memorandum titled ``Guidance
Implementing Executive Order 13771, Titled ``Reducing Regulation and
Controlling Regulatory Costs'''' (April 5, 2017).
Regulatory Flexibility Act
Since grain export volume can vary significantly from year to year,
estimating the total impact in any single year can be difficult. AMS
recognizes, however, that the industry needs predictable inspection and
weighing fees. The regulations at 7 CFR 800.71(b) set an annual cap of
5 percent for increases or decreases in inspection and weighing fees,
and the increases and decreases are fixed according the statutory
requirements of the Agriculture Reauthorization Act of 2015. This
rulemaking is unlikely to
[[Page 6453]]
have an annual effect of $100 million or more or adversely affect a
significant number of small entities.
The provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act relating to an
initial and final regulatory flexibility analysis (5 U.S.C. 603, 604)
are not applicable to this final rule because USDA was not required to
publish notice of proposed rulemaking under 5 U.S.C. 553 or any other
law. Accordingly, a regulatory flexibility analysis is not required.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This final rule imposes no new reporting or recordkeeping
requirements necessitating clearance by OMB.
