TB-99-02] RIN 0581-AB75 Tobacco Inspection AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA. ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Department of Agriculture (Department) is adopting as a final rule, the regulations for flue-cured tobacco to more accurately describe tobacco as it presently appears at the marketplace. The revision will add a new provision to the official grade standards for flue-cured tobacco to denote that any lot of baled tobacco that has not been opened for inspection be graded by the exterior only.
Additional bale dimensions and space requirements will be established for uniform marketing display in the warehouses, and a revision will be made in the poundage adjustment for a warehouse selling in excess of the sales schedule for designated and undesignated producer tobacco. EFFECTIVE DATE: July 28, 2000. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John P. Duncan III, Deputy Administrator, Tobacco Programs, Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS), United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Room 502 Annex Building, PO Box 96456, Washington, DC 20090-6456.

(202)205-0567. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department published in the **Federal Register** on March 15, 2000 (65 FR 13915) a proposed rule amending the regulations at 7 CFR part 29, subpart B, Regulations; subpart C, Standards, and subpart G, Policy Statement and Regulations Governing Availability of Tobacco Inspection and Price Support Services to Flue-Cured Tobacco on Designated Markets. The Department requested comments on the regulations. The comment period expired on May 15, 2000, and AMS received no comments on the amendments. The final rule will add a new provision to the grade standards for baled flue-cured tobacco, establish bale dimensions and spacing requirements, and revise the poundage adjustment for a warehouse selling in excess of the sales schedule for designated and undesignated tobacco, pursuant to the authority contained in the Tobacco Inspection Act of 1935, as amended (49 Stat.731; 7 U.S.C. 511 *et seq.* ). On January 20, 2000, the Flue-Cured Tobacco Advisory Committee (FCTAC) met and reviewed recommendations from the tobacco industry on the flue-cured bale as an alternative packaging method. The recommendations made by the FCTAC have been included in this final rule for regulatory action. The revisions will add a new provision to the official standards for flue-cured tobacco to denote that any lot of baled tobacco that has not been opened for inspection will be graded by the exterior only, establish dimension and spacing requirements for marketing display of bales, and revise the poundage adjustment for a warehouse selling in excess of the sales schedule. An earlier proposed rule concerning bale inspection was issued on May 12, 1999 (64 FR 25462) and was withdrawn on July 22, 1999 (64 FR 39432). The notice of the withdrawal stated that we intended to publish an advance notice of proposed rulemaking to solicit additional input. The FCTAC advised that the rule be published promptly, and we agree that the issues have already been considered within the industry. Accordingly, we published in the **Federal Register** a proposed rule on March 15, 2000. Flue-cured tobacco has been traditionally marketed in a sheet with a maximum weight of 275 pounds. The dimensions of the sheet is 8 feet x 8 feet and is composed of burlap or other synthetic materials. The tobacco is arranged in a circular pattern on the sheet and the corners are tied diagonally for handling purposes. The lot of sheeted tobacco is approximately 4 feet in diameter. The tobacco industry has experimented with the bale as an alternative packaging method for marketing flue-cured tobacco during the past 4 years. This alternative package is a 42-inch wide x 42-inch high x 40-inch long bale weighing approximately 750 pounds. The bale is compressed together and bound by metal wires. The FCTAC recommended bale dimensions of 42 inches x 42 inches x 40 inches. Because uniformity in the size of bales is an important aspect of the acceptability of baled tobacco, bales which are not approximately these dimensions will be ineligible for a standard grade and designated “No-G.” The current regulations under the Tobacco Inspection Act do not specifically restrict baling as a packaging method for flue-cured tobacco. However, the current regulations do require that an official grade determination be based on a thorough examination of a lot of tobacco. A minimum of three locations within a lot is required to be sampled to show the range of the entire lot. However, the buying segment of the tobacco industry has opposed opening bales citing integrity issues. During the 1998 flue-cured marketing season, Tobacco Programs conducted a research project on marketing flue-cured tobacco in bales. The research focused on the grade and condition of flue-cured baled tobacco from the beginning to the end of the marketing process. Research data was collected at the farm level as the tobacco was compressed into a bale, at the auction warehouse before and during the day of sale, and at the processing facility as the bale was disassembled. The purpose of the research project was to determine if significant variations existed between the exterior and interior of the flue-cured bale that would impact the official grade standards. The findings indicated there was no significant variation in grade and condition observed. Accordingly, this rule will revise the current tobacco regulations to allow the inspection of bales of flue-cured tobacco without the bale being opened for inspection. All lots of tobacco that are subject to mandatory inspection on a designated market should be made accessible to perform grading activities. The recommendation was made that each lot of baled flue-cured tobacco displayed for sale on auction warehouse floors be placed in rows end to end so the open side of the bales are facing the aisles. Also, a minimum space of 30 inches between the rows with the distance between lots of tobacco within the row shall be no less than 18 inches between immediately adjacent lots was recommended. These two spacing proposals will promote the orderly marketing of baled tobacco by providing a uniform marketing display in the warehouse. This will also provide accessibility for inspection of the bales. An additional revision will increase the poundage adjustment of 2,500 pounds by doubling the poundage amount for a warehouse selling in excess of the daily sales schedule. For example, 2,500 pounds will become 5,000 pounds and 5,000 pounds will become 10,000 pounds. The same will be applicable to undesignated producer tobacco, with 500 pounds becoming 1,000 pounds and 1,000 pounds becoming 2,000 pounds. This action is being adopted because the bale weight is approximately three times as much as tobacco marketed in sheets. This will give the farmers a chance to complete selling their lots of tobacco when the daily sales schedule has been depleted. This rule should meet industry needs for marketing tobacco in bales. This rule has been determined to be “non significant” for purposes of Executive Order 12866, and therefore, has not been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget. This final rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12988, Civil Justice Reform. This action is not intended to have retroactive effect. This rule will not preempt any State or local laws, regulations, or policies, unless they present an irreconcilable conflict with this rule. There are no administrative procedures which must be exhausted prior to any judicial challenge to the provisions of this rule. Additionally, in conformance with the provisions of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 *et seq.* ), full consideration has been given to the potential economic impact upon small businesses. All tobacco warehouses and producers fall within the confines of “small business” which are defined by the Small Business Administration (13 CFR 121.201) as those having annual receipts of less than $500,000, and small agricultural service firms are defined as those whose annual receipts are less than $3,500,000. There are approximately 190 tobacco warehouses and approximately 30,000 producers. The Agricultural Marketing Service has determined that this action would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. A new rule will be added to the official standards for flue-cured tobacco to denote that any lot of baled tobacco that has not been opened for inspection will be graded by the exterior only. Accordingly, this change will allow grading of a closed package from the exterior only, and will assist in maintaining program integrity. Additional bale dimensions and space requirements will be established for uniform marketing display in the warehouses and will provide accessibility for inspection of the bales. A revision will be made to the poundage adjustment for a warehouse selling in excess of the sales schedule and for undesignated producer tobacco in order to take into account the marketing of bales. These changes will apply equally to both small and large entities and they will take into account the marketing of flue-cured tobacco as it presently appears in the marketplace. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, it is determined that good cause exists for not postponing the effective date of this rule until 30 days after publication in the **Federal Register** because:
(1)The flue-cured tobacco marketing season will begin in July and it is essential that the requirements be uniform for the entire marketing season, and
(2)a 60-day comment period was provided for the proposed rule and no comments were received.
