The purpose of these notices is to give interested persons an opportunity to participate in the rule making prior to the adoption of the final rules. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Agricultural Marketing Service 7 CFR Part 959 and 980 [Doc. No. AMS–SC–21–0003; SC21–959–2] Onions Grown in South Texas and Imported Onions; Termination of Marketing Order 959 and Change in Import Requirements; Withdrawal Agricultural Marketing Service, Department of Agriculture (USDA). ACTION: Proposed rule; withdrawal. AGENCY: The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is withdrawing the proposed rule to terminate the Federal marketing order regulating the handling of onions grown in South Texas and the rules and regulations issued thereunder, and the proposed corresponding change to the onion import regulation. After reviewing the results of a second producer referendum and considering the comments received on the proposed rule, the proposed rule is being withdrawn. DATES: The proposed rule published August 5, 2021 at 86 FR 42748 and reopened on November 8, 2021 at 86 FR 61718, is withdrawn as of February 21, 2023. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Abigail Maharaj, Marketing Specialist, or Christian D. Nissen, Branch Chief, Southeast Region Branch, Market Development Division, Specialty Crops Program, AMS, USDA; Telephone: (863) 324–3375, Fax: (863) 291–8614, or Email: Abigail.Maharaj@usda.gov or Christian.Nissen@usda.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This withdrawal is issued under Marketing Order No. 959, as amended (7 CFR part 959), regulating the handling of onions grown in South Texas. Part 959 (referred to as the ‘‘Order’’) is effective under the Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601–674), hereinafter referred to as the ‘‘Act.’’ The South Texas Onion Committee (Committee) locally administers the lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:56 Feb 17, 2023 Jkt 259001 Order and is comprised of producers and handlers operating within the production area. The withdrawal is also issued under section 8e of the Act (7 U.S.C. 608e–1), which provides whenever certain specified commodities, including onions, are regulated under a Federal marketing order, imports of those commodities into the United States are prohibited unless they meet the same or comparable grade, size, quality, and maturity requirements as those in effect for the same domestically produced commodities. This action withdraws a proposed rule published in the Federal Register on August 5, 2021 (86 FR 42748), seeking public input on terminating the Order and the rules and regulations issued thereunder and making a corresponding change in the onion import requirements. AMS reopened the public comment period for the proposed rule for an additional 30 days in a notice published in the Federal Register on November 8, 2021 (86 FR 61718). The proposed termination was based on the results of a continuance referendum conducted by USDA from September 21 to October 13, 2020, in which producers failed to support the continuation of the Order. Section 959.84(d) of the Order provides that USDA shall conduct a referendum within six years after the establishment of the Order and every sixth year thereafter to ascertain whether continuance is favored by producers. The section further provides that USDA would consider termination of the Order if fewer than two-thirds of the producers voting in the referendum, and producers of less than two-thirds of the volume of onions represented in the referendum favor continuance. During both comment periods, AMS received a combined total of 90 comments. All the comments may be viewed on the internet at https:// www.regulations.gov. Of the comments received, 5 comments indicated support for termination, with 85 comments indicating opposition to termination. Thirty-three of all comments were from the production area, with 31 opposing termination of the Order. After reviewing and considering all comments received during both comment periods, the Secretary of Agriculture determined conducting a second referendum as appropriate to better assess the level of producer support for the continuation of PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 the Order. AMS conducted the second referendum September 1 through October 3, 2022, and continuance of the Order received the support of 78.6 percent of South Texas onion producers voting in the referendum. Continuance was favored by 73.7 percent of the volume voted in the referendum. After reviewing all relevant materials, AMS determined the proposed rule to terminate the Order should be withdrawn. Accordingly, the proposed rule to terminate the Order that was published in the Federal Register on August 5, 2021 is hereby withdrawn. In addition, enforcement of the obligation to pay assessments at the rate of $0.05 per 50-pound equivalent, which was administratively suspended on March 15, 2021, is re-instated for the 2022–23 fiscal period and subsequent fiscal periods, as published in the Federal Register on June 30, 2020 (85 FR 39047).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Privacy Act is the principal law governing the handling of personal information in the Federal government. It governs the collection, maintenance, use, and dissemination of information about individuals that is maintained in systems of records by Federal agencies. The Privacy Act also affords individuals a right of access to records pertaining to them and a right to have inaccurate records corrected. The Commission last amended its Privacy Act regulations in 2011. In the course of reviewing our regulations under the Privacy Act, we have identified areas where it would be beneficial to clarify, update, and streamline the language of several provisions. Accordingly, we are proposing revisions to our Privacy Act regulations. The proposed revisions include: adding a provision setting forth the process by which individuals may be provided with an accounting of disclosures made by the Commission; adding a provision to codify the existing PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 10483 practice of providing 90 days to file an administrative appeal in response to a denial of a Privacy Act inquiry or request; deleting certain existing provisions that are duplicative and unnecessary; reorganizing certain provisions; and updating the fee provisions.1 Due to the scope of the proposed revisions, the proposed rule would replace the Commission’s current Privacy Act regulations in their entirety (17 CFR 200.301 through 200.313). II. Discussion of the Proposed Rule A. Proposed Amendments To Update, Clarify, and Streamline the Privacy Act Regulations We are proposing to amend certain procedural provisions to clarify, update, and streamline the Commission’s regulations.2 The proposed revisions, among other things: clarify the purpose and scope of the regulations (proposed Section 200.301); update definitions so that the processes set forth in the regulations are more plainly described (proposed 17 CFR 200.302); simplify the processes for submitting and receiving responses to Privacy Act inquiries, requests, and administrative appeals (proposed 17 CFR 200.303, 305, 306, 307, and 308); allow for requesters to electronically verify their identities, including by facsimile, email, or an online Commission form (proposed 17 CFR 200.303); 3 provide for a shorter Commission response time to Privacy Act inquiries as to whether a specific system of records maintained by the Commission contains a record pertaining to the requester, which aligns with other relevant time lines (proposed 17 CFR 200.304); update agency contact information (e.g., office names, facsimile numbers, email addresses, and physical addresses) (proposed 17 CFR 200.303, 305, 308, and 309); and update the list of Commission systems of records that have promulgated rules exempting certain records from certain provisions of the Privacy Act (proposed 17 CFR 200.310). B. Proposed Revisions to Fee Provisions The proposed amendments would revise the fee provisions (proposed 17 CFR 200.309) to update the provisions to reflect existing practice. The present rule states that fees for copying documents will be determined by rates set by contract with commercial copiers. 1 The terms ‘‘inquiry’’ and ‘‘request’’ are defined in 5 U.S.C. 552a. 2 These amendments are discussed in greater detail in Section IV. Economic Analysis. 3 The Office of FOIA Services currently accepts electronic submission of verification of identity in all of these formats. E:\FR\FM\21FEP1.SGM 21FEP1
