Explanation

The Code of Federal Regulations is a codification of the general and permanentrules published in the Federal Register by the Executive departments and agen-cies of the Federal Government. The Code is divided into 50 titles which representbroad areas subject to Federal regulation. Each title is divided into chapterswhich usually bear the name of the issuing agency. Each chapter is further sub-divided into parts covering specific regulatory areas.

Each volume of the Code is revised at least once each calendar year and issuedon a quarterly basis approximately as follows:

Title 1 through Title 16..............................................................as of January 1Title 17 through Title 27 .................................................................as of April 1Title 28 through Title 41 ..................................................................as of July 1Title 42 through Title 50.............................................................as of October 1

The appropriate revision date is printed on the cover of each volume.

LEGAL STATUS

The contents of the Federal Register are required to be judicially noticed (44U.S.C. 1507). The Code of Federal Regulations is prima facie evidence of the textof the original documents (44 U.S.C. 1510).

HOW TO USE THE CODE OF FEDERAL REGULATIONS

The Code of Federal Regulations is kept up to date by the individual issuesof the Federal Register. These two publications must be used together to deter-mine the latest version of any given rule.

To determine whether a Code volume has been amended since its revision date(in this case, January 1, 2001), consult the ‘‘List of CFR Sections Affected (LSA),’’which is issued monthly, and the ‘‘Cumulative List of Parts Affected,’’ whichappears in the Reader Aids section of the daily Federal Register. These two listswill identify the Federal Register page number of the latest amendment of anygiven rule.

EFFECTIVE AND EXPIRATION DATES

Each volume of the Code contains amendments published in the Federal Reg-ister since the last revision of that volume of the Code. Source citations forthe regulations are referred to by volume number and page number of the FederalRegister and date of publication. Publication dates and effective dates are usu-ally not the same and care must be exercised by the user in determining theactual effective date. In instances where the effective date is beyond the cut-off date for the Code a note has been inserted to reflect the future effectivedate. In those instances where a regulation published in the Federal Registerstates a date certain for expiration, an appropriate note will be inserted followingthe text.

OMB CONTROL NUMBERS

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (Pub. L. 96–511) requires Federal agenciesto display an OMB control number with their information collection request.


vi

Many agencies have begun publishing numerous OMB control numbers as amend-ments to existing regulations in the CFR. These OMB numbers are placed asclose as possible to the applicable recordkeeping or reporting requirements.

OBSOLETE PROVISIONS

Provisions that become obsolete before the revision date stated on the coverof each volume are not carried. Code users may find the text of provisions ineffect on a given date in the past by using the appropriate numerical list ofsections affected. For the period before January 1, 1986, consult either the Listof CFR Sections Affected, 1949–1963, 1964–1972, or 1973–1985, published in seven sep-arate volumes. For the period beginning January 1, 1986, a ‘‘List of CFR SectionsAffected’’ is published at the end of each CFR volume.

CFR INDEXES AND TABULAR GUIDES

A subject index to the Code of Federal Regulations is contained in a separatevolume, revised annually as of January 1, entitled CFR INDEX AND FINDING AIDS.This volume contains the Parallel Table of Statutory Authorities and AgencyRules (Table I). A list of CFR titles, chapters, and parts and an alphabeticallist of agencies publishing in the CFR are also included in this volume.

An index to the text of ‘‘Title 3—The President’’ is carried within that volume.

The Federal Register Index is issued monthly in cumulative form. This indexis based on a consolidation of the ‘‘Contents’’ entries in the daily Federal Reg-ister.

A List of CFR Sections Affected (LSA) is published monthly, keyed to therevision dates of the 50 CFR titles.

There are no restrictions on the republication of material appearing in theCode of Federal Regulations.

§ 1000.42 Classification of transfersand diversions.

(a) Transfers and diversions to poolplants. Skim milk or butterfat trans-ferred or diverted in the form of a fluidmilk product or transferred in the formof a bulk fluid cream product from apool plant or a handler described in§ 1135.11 of this chapter to another poolplant shall be classified as Class I milkunless the handlers both request thesame classification in another class. Ineither case, the classification shall besubject to the following conditions:

(1) The skim milk and butterfat clas-sified in each class shall be limited tothe amount of skim milk and but-terfat, respectively, remaining in suchclass at the receiving plant after thecomputations pursuant to § 1000.44(a)(9)and the corresponding step of§ 1000.44(b);

(2) If the transferring plant receivedduring the month other source milk tobe allocated pursuant to § 1000.44(a)(3)or the corresponding step of § 1000.44(b),the skim milk or butterfat so trans-ferred shall be classified so as to allo-cate the least possible Class I utiliza-tion to such other source milk; and

(3) If the transferring handler re-ceived during the month other sourcemilk to be allocated pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(8) or (9) or the correspondingsteps of § 1000.44(b), the skim milk orbutterfat so transferred, up to the totalof the skim milk and butterfat, respec-tively, in such receipts of other sourcemilk, shall not be classified as Class Imilk to a greater extent than would bethe case if the other source milk hadbeen received at the receiving plant.

(b) Transfers and diversions to a plantregulated under another Federal order.

Skim milk or butterfat transferred ordiverted in the form of a fluid milkproduct or transferred in the form of abulk fluid cream product from a poolplant to a plant regulated under an-other Federal order shall be classifiedin the following manner. Such classi-fication shall apply only to the skimmilk or butterfat that is in excess ofany receipts at the pool plant from aplant regulated under another Federalorder of skim milk and butterfat, re-spectively, in fluid milk products andbulk fluid cream products, respec-tively, that are in the same category asdescribed in paragraph (b)(1) or (2) ofthis section:

(1) As Class I milk, if transferred aspackaged fluid milk products;

(2) If transferred or diverted in bulkform, classification shall be in theclasses to which allocated under theother order:

(i) If the operators of both plants sorequest in their reports of receipts andutilization filed with their respectivemarket administrators, transfers inbulk form shall be classified as otherthan Class I to the extent that suchutilization is available for such classi-fication pursuant to the allocation pro-visions of the other order;

(ii) If diverted, the diverting handlermust request a classification otherthan Class I. If the plant receiving thediverted milk does not have sufficientutilization available for the requestedclassification and some of the divertedmilk is consequently assigned to ClassI use, the diverting handler shall begiven the option of designating the en-tire load of diverted milk as producermilk at the plant physically receivingthe milk. Alternatively, if the divert-ing handler so chooses, it may des-ignate which dairy farmers whose milkwas diverted during the month will bedesignated as producers under theorder physically receiving the milk. Ifthe diverting handler declines to ac-cept either of these options, the mar-ket administrator will prorate the por-tion of diverted milk in excess of ClassII, III, and IV use among all the dairyfarmers whose milk was received fromthe diverting handler on the last day ofthe month, then the second-to-last day,and continuing in that fashion until


45


the excess diverted milk has been as-signed as producer milk under the re-ceiving order; and

(iii) If information concerning theclasses to which such transfers or di-versions were allocated under the otherorder is not available to the market ad-ministrator for the purpose of estab-lishing classification under this para-graph, classification shall be Class I,subject to adjustment when such infor-mation is available.

(c) Transfers and diversions to pro-ducer-handlers and to exempt plants.Skim milk or butterfat that is trans-ferred or diverted from a pool plant toa producer-handler under any Federalorder or to an exempt plant shall beclassified:

(1) As Class I milk if transferred ordiverted to a producer-handler;

(2) As Class I milk if transferred toan exempt plant in the form of a pack-aged fluid milk product; and

(3) In accordance with the utilizationassigned to it by the market adminis-trator if transferred or diverted in theform of a bulk fluid milk product ortransferred in the form of a bulk fluidcream product to an exempt plant. Forthis purpose, the receiving handler’sutilization of skim milk and butterfatin each class, in series beginning withClass IV, shall be assigned to the ex-tent possible to its receipts of skimmilk and butterfat, in bulk fluid creamproducts, and bulk fluid milk products,respectively, pro rata to each source.

(d) Transfers and diversions to othernonpool plants. Skim milk or butterfattransferred or diverted in the followingforms from a pool plant to a nonpoolplant that is not a plant regulatedunder another order, an exempt plant,or a producer-handler plant shall beclassified:

(1) As Class I milk, if transferred inthe form of a packaged fluid milk prod-uct; and

(2) As Class I milk, if transferred ordiverted in the form of a bulk fluidmilk product or transferred in the formof a bulk fluid cream product, unlessthe following conditions apply:

(i) If the conditions described inparagraphs (d)(2)(i)(A) and (B) of thissection are met, transfers or diversionsin bulk form shall be classified on thebasis of the assignment of the nonpool

plant’s utilization, excluding the milkequivalent of both nonfat milk solidsand concentrated milk used in theplant during the month, to its receiptsas set forth in paragraphs (d)(2)(ii)through (viii) of this section:

(A) The transferring handler or di-verting handler claims such classifica-tion in such handler’s report of receiptsand utilization filed pursuant to§ ll.30 of each Federal milk order forthe month within which such trans-action occurred; and

(B) The nonpool plant operator main-tains books and records showing theutilization of all skim milk and but-terfat received at such plant which aremade available for verification pur-poses if requested by the market ad-ministrator;

(ii) Route disposition in the mar-keting area of each Federal milk orderfrom the nonpool plant and transfers ofpackaged fluid milk products fromsuch nonpool plant to plants fully reg-ulated thereunder shall be assigned tothe extent possible in the following se-quence:

(A) Pro rata to receipts of packagedfluid milk products at such nonpoolplant from pool plants;

(B) Pro rata to any remaining unas-signed receipts of packaged fluid milkproducts at such nonpool plant fromplants regulated under other Federalorders;

(C) Pro rata to receipts of bulk fluidmilk products at such nonpool plantfrom pool plants; and

(D) Pro rata to any remaining unas-signed receipts of bulk fluid milk prod-ucts at such nonpool plant from plantsregulated under other Federal orders;

(iii) Any remaining Class I disposi-tion of packaged fluid milk productsfrom the nonpool plant shall be as-signed to the extent possible pro ratato any remaining unassigned receiptsof packaged fluid milk products atsuch nonpool plant from pool plantsand plants regulated under other Fed-eral orders;

(iv) Transfers of bulk fluid milk prod-ucts from the nonpool plant to a plantregulated under any Federal order, tothe extent that such transfers to theregulated plant exceed receipts of fluidmilk products from such plant and areallocated to Class I at the receiving


46

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1000.43

plant, shall be assigned to the extentpossible in the following sequence:

(A) Pro rata to receipts of fluid milkproducts at such nonpool plant frompool plants; and

(B) Pro rata to any remaining unas-signed receipts of fluid milk productsat such nonpool plant from plants reg-ulated under other Federal orders;

(v) Any remaining unassigned Class Idisposition from the nonpool plantshall be assigned to the extent possiblein the following sequence:

(A) To such nonpool plant’s receiptsfrom dairy farmers who the market ad-ministrator determines constitute reg-ular sources of Grade A milk for suchnonpool plant; and

(B) To such nonpool plant’s receiptsof Grade A milk from plants not fullyregulated under any Federal orderwhich the market administrator deter-mines constitute regular sources ofGrade A milk for such nonpool plant;

(vi) Any remaining unassigned re-ceipts of bulk fluid milk products atthe nonpool plant from pool plants andplants regulated under other Federalorders shall be assigned, pro rataamong such plants, to the extent pos-sible first to any remaining Class I uti-lization and then to all other utiliza-tion, in sequence beginning with ClassIV at such nonpool plant;

(vii) Receipts of bulk fluid creamproducts at the nonpool plant frompool plants and plants regulated underother Federal orders shall be assigned,pro rata among such plants, to the ex-tent possible to any remaining utiliza-tion, in sequence beginning with ClassIV at such nonpool plant; and

(viii) In determining the nonpoolplant’s utilization for purposes of thisparagraph, any fluid milk products andbulk fluid cream products transferredfrom such nonpool plant to a plant notfully regulated under any Federal ordershall be classified on the basis of thesecond plant’s utilization using thesame assignment priorities at the sec-ond plant that are set forth in thisparagraph.

§ 1000.43 General classification rules.

In determining the classification ofproducer milk pursuant to § 1000.44, thefollowing rules shall apply:

(a) Each month the market adminis-trator shall correct for mathematicaland other obvious errors all reportsfiled pursuant to § ll.30 of each Fed-eral milk order and shall compute sep-arately for each pool plant, for eachhandler described in § 1000.9(c) and§ 1135.11 of this chapter, the pounds ofskim milk and butterfat, respectively,in each class in accordance with§§ 1000.40 and 1000.42, and paragraph (b)of this section.

(b) Shrinkage and Overage. For pur-poses of classifying all milk reportedby a handler pursuant to § ll.30 ofeach Federal milk order the marketadministrator shall determine theshrinkage or overage of skim milk andbutterfat for each pool plant and eachhandler described in § 1000.9(c) and§ 1135.11 of this chapter by subtractingtotal utilization from total receipts.Any positive difference shall be shrink-age, and any negative difference shallbe overage.

(1) Shrinkage incurred by pool plantsqualified pursuant to § ll.7 of anyFederal milk order shall be assigned tothe lowest-priced class to the extentthat such shrinkage does not exceed:

(i) Two percent of the total quantityof milk physically received at theplant directly from producers’ farms onthe basis of farm weights and tests;

(ii) Plus 1.5 percent of the quantity ofbulk milk physically received on abasis other than farm weights andtests, excluding concentrated milk re-ceived by agreement for other thanClass I use;

(iii) Plus .5 percent of the quantity ofmilk diverted by the plant operator toanother plant on a basis other thanfarm weights and tests; and

(iv) Minus 1.5 percent of the quantityof bulk milk transferred to otherplants, excluding concentrated milktransferred by agreement for otherthan Class I use.

(2) A handler described in § 1000.9(c)or § 1135.11 of this chapter that deliversmilk to plants on a basis other thanfarm weights and tests shall receive alowest-priced-class shrinkage allow-ance of .5 percent of the total quantityof such milk picked up at producers’farms.

(3) Shrinkage in excess of theamounts provided in paragraphs (b)(1)


47


and (2) of this section shall be assignedto existing utilization in series start-ing with Class I. The shrinkage as-signed pursuant to this paragraph shallbe added to the handler’s reported uti-lization and the result shall be knownas the gross utilization in each class.

(c) If any of the water contained inthe milk from which a product is madeis removed before the product is uti-lized or disposed of by the handler, thepounds of skim milk in such productthat are to be considered under thispart as used or disposed of by the han-dler shall be an amount equivalent tothe nonfat milk solids contained insuch product plus all of the wateroriginally associated with such solids.

(d) Skim milk and butterfat con-tained in receipts of bulk concentratedfluid milk and nonfluid milk productsthat are reconstituted for fluid useshall be assigned to Class I use, up tothe reconstituted portion of labeled re-constituted fluid milk products, on apro rata basis (except for any Class Iuse of specific concentrated receiptsthat is established by the handler)prior to any assignments under§ 1000.44. Any remaining skim milk andbutterfat in concentrated receipts shallbe assigned to uses under § 1000.44 on apro rata basis, unless a specific use ofsuch receipts is established by the han-dler.

§ 1000.44 Classification of producermilk.

For each month the market adminis-trator shall determine for each handlerdescribed in § 1000.9(a) for each poolplant of the handler separately and foreach handler described in § 1000.9(c) and§ 1135.11 of this chapter the classifica-tion of producer milk by allocating thehandler’s receipts of skim milk andbutterfat to the handler’s gross utiliza-tion of such receipts pursuant to§ 1000.43(b)(3) as follows:

(a) Skim milk shall be allocated inthe following manner:

(1) Subtract from the pounds of skimmilk in Class I the pounds of skimmilk in:

(i) Receipts of packaged fluid milkproducts from an unregulated supplyplant to the extent that an equivalentamount of skim milk disposed of tosuch plant by handlers fully regulated

under any Federal order is classifiedand priced as Class I milk and is notused as an offset for any other paymentobligation under any order;

(ii) Packaged fluid milk products ininventory at the beginning of themonth. This paragraph shall apply onlyif the pool plant was subject to the pro-visions of this paragraph or comparableprovisions of another Federal order inthe immediately preceding month;

(iii) Fluid milk products received inpackaged form from plants regulatedunder other Federal orders; and

(iv) To the extent that the receiptsdescribed in paragraphs (a)(1)(i)through (iii) of this section exceed thegross Class I utilization of skim milk,the excess receipts shall be subtractedpursuant to paragraph (a)(3)(vi) of thissection.

(2) Subtract from the pounds of skimmilk in Class II the pounds of skimmilk in the receipts of skim milk inbulk concentrated fluid milk productsand in other source milk (except othersource milk received in the form of anunconcentrated fluid milk product or afluid cream product) that is used toproduce, or added to, any product inClass II (excluding the quantity of suchskim milk that was classified as ClassIV milk pursuant to § 1000.40(d)(3)). Tothe extent that the receipts describedin this paragraph exceed the grossClass II utilization of skim milk, theexcess receipts shall be subtracted pur-suant to paragraph (a)(3)(vi) of this sec-tion.

(3) Subtract from the pounds of skimmilk remaining in each class, in seriesbeginning with Class IV, the pounds ofskim milk in:

(i) Receipts of bulk concentratedfluid milk products and other sourcemilk (except other source milk re-ceived in the form of anunconcentrated fluid milk product);

(ii) Receipts of fluid milk productsand bulk fluid cream products forwhich appropriate health approval isnot established and from unidentifiedsources;

(iii) Receipts of fluid milk productsand bulk fluid cream products from anexempt plant;

(iv) Fluid milk products and bulkfluid cream products received from aproducer-handler as defined under the


48

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1000.44

order in this part, or any other Federalorder;

Subpart H—Payments for Milk§ 1000.70 Producer-settlement fund.

The market administrator shall es-tablish and maintain a separate fundknown as the producer-settlement fundinto which the market administratorshall deposit all payments made byhandlers pursuant to §§ lll.71,lll.76, and lll.77 of each Federalmilk order and out of which the mar-

ket administrator shall make all pay-ments pursuant to §§ lll.72 andlll.77 of each Federal milk order.Payments due any handler shall be off-set by any payments due from thathandler.

§ 1000.76 Payments by a handler oper-ating a partially regulated distrib-uting plant.

On or before the 25th day after theend of the month (except as provided in§ 1000.90), the operator of a partiallyregulated distributing plant, otherthan a plant that is subject tomarketwide pooling of producer re-turns under a State government’s milkclassification and pricing program,shall pay to the market administratorfor the producer-settlement fund theamount computed pursuant to para-graph (a) of this section or, if the han-dler submits the information specifiedin §§ lll.30(b) and lll.31(b) of theorder, the handler may elect to pay theamount computed pursuant to para-graph (b) of this section. A partiallyregulated distributing plant that issubject to marketwide pooling of pro-ducer returns under a State govern-ment’s milk classification and pricingprogram shall pay the amount com-puted pursuant to paragraph (c) of thissection.

(a) The payment under this para-graph shall be an amount resultingfrom the following computations:

(1) From the plant’s route dispositionin the marketing area:

(i) Subtract receipts of fluid milkproducts classified as Class I milk frompool plants, plants fully regulatedunder other Federal orders, and han-dlers described in § 1000.9(c) and § 1135.11of this chapter, except those receiptssubtracted under a similar provision ofanother Federal milk order;

(ii) Subtract receipts of fluid milkproducts from another nonpool plantthat is not a plant fully regulatedunder another Federal order to the ex-tent that an equivalent amount of fluidmilk products disposed of to thenonpool plant by handlers fully regu-lated under any Federal order is classi-fied and priced as Class I milk and isnot used as an offset for any paymentobligation under any order; and


97


(iii) Subtract the pounds of reconsti-tuted milk made from nonfluid milkproducts which are disposed of as routedisposition in the marketing area;

(2) For orders with multiple compo-nent pricing, compute a Class I dif-ferential price by subtracting Class IIIprice from the current month’s Class Iprice. Multiply the pounds remainingafter the computation in paragraph(a)(1)(iii) of this section by the amountby which the Class I differential priceexceeds the producer price differential,both prices to be applicable at the loca-tion of the partially regulated distrib-uting plant except that neither the ad-justed Class I differential price nor theadjusted producer price differentialshall be less than zero;

(3) For orders with skim milk andbutterfat pricing, multiply the remain-ing pounds by the amount by which theClass I price exceeds the uniform price,both prices to be applicable at the loca-tion of the partially regulated distrib-uting plant except that neither the ad-justed Class I price nor the adjusteduniform price differential shall be lessthan the lowest announced class price;and

(4) Unless the payment option de-scribed in paragraph (d) is selected, addthe amount obtained from multiplyingthe pounds of labeled reconstitutedmilk included in paragraph (a)(1)(iii) ofthis section by any positive differencebetween the Class I price applicable atthe location of the partially regulateddistributing plant (less $1.00 if the re-constituted milk is labeled as such)and the Class IV price.

(b) The payment under this para-graph shall be the amount resultingfrom the following computations:

(1) Determine the value that wouldhave been computed pursuant to§ lll.60 of the order for the partiallyregulated distributing plant if theplant had been a pool plant, subject tothe following modifications:

(i) Fluid milk products and bulk fluidcream products received at the plantfrom a pool plant, a plant fully regu-lated under another Federal order, andhandlers described in § 1000.9(c) and§ 1135.11 of this chapter shall be allo-cated at the partially regulated distrib-uting plant to the same class in which

such products were classified at thefully regulated plant;

(ii) Fluid milk products and bulkfluid cream products transferred fromthe partially regulated distributingplant to a pool plant or a plant fullyregulated under another Federal ordershall be classified at the partially regu-lated distributing plant in the class towhich allocated at the fully regulatedplant. Such transfers shall be allocatedto the extent possible to those receiptsat the partially regulated distributingplant from the pool plant and plantsfully regulated under other Federal or-ders that are classified in the cor-responding class pursuant to paragraph(b)(1)(i) of this section. Any such trans-fers remaining after the above alloca-tion which are in Class I and for whicha value is computed pursuant to§ lll.60 of the order for the partiallyregulated distributing plant shall bepriced at the statistical uniform priceor uniform price, whichever is applica-ble, of the respective order regulatingthe handling of milk at the receivingplant, with such statistical uniformprice or uniform price adjusted to thelocation of the nonpool plant (but notto be less than the lowest announcedclass price of the respective order); and

(iii) If the operator of the partiallyregulated distributing plant so re-quests, the handler’s value of milk de-termined pursuant to § lll.60 of theorder shall include a value of milk de-termined for each nonpool plant that isnot a plant fully regulated under an-other Federal order which serves as asupply plant for the partially regulateddistributing plant by making ship-ments to the partially regulated dis-tributing plant during the monthequivalent to the requirements of§ lll. 7(c) of the order subject to thefollowing conditions:

(A) The operator of the partially reg-ulated distributing plant submits withits reports filed pursuant to§§ lll.30(b) and lll.31(b) of theorder similar reports for each suchnonpool supply plant;

(B) The operator of the nonpool plantmaintains books and records showingthe utilization of all skim milk andbutterfat received at the plant whichare made available if requested by the


98

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1000.77

market administrator for verificationpurposes; and

(C) The value of milk determinedpursuant to § lll.60 for the unregu-lated supply plant shall be determinedin the same manner prescribed forcomputing the obligation of the par-tially regulated distributing plant; and

(2) From the partially regulated dis-tributing plant’s value of milk com-puted pursuant to paragraph (b)(1) ofthis section, subtract:

(i) The gross payments that weremade for milk that would have beenproducer milk had the plant been fullyregulated;

(ii) If paragraph (b)(1)(iii) of this sec-tion applies, the gross payments by theoperator of the nonpool supply plantfor milk received at the plant duringthe month that would have been pro-ducer milk if the plant had been fullyregulated; and

(iii) The payments by the operator ofthe partially regulated distributingplant to the producer-settlement fundof another Federal order under whichthe plant is also a partially regulateddistributing plant and, if paragraph(b)(1)(iii) of this section applies, pay-ments made by the operator of thenonpool supply plant to the producer-settlement fund of any order.

(c) The operator of a partially regu-lated distributing plant that is subjectto marketwide pooling of returns undera milk classification and pricing pro-gram that is imposed under the author-ity of a State government shall pay onor before the 25th day after the end ofthe month (except as provided in§ 1000.90) to the market administratorfor the producer-settlement fund anamount computed as follows:

After completing the computationsdescribed in paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (ii)of this section, determine the value ofthe remaining pounds of fluid milkproducts disposed of as route disposi-tion in the marketing area by multi-plying the hundredweight of suchpounds by the amount, if greater thanzero, that remains after subtractingthe State program’s class prices appli-cable to such products at the plant’slocation from the Federal order Class Iprice applicable at the location of theplant.

(d) Any handler may elect partiallyregulated distributing plant status forany plant with respect to receipts ofnonfluid milk ingredients that are re-constituted for fluid use. Paymentsmay be made to the producer-settle-ment fund of the order regulating theproducer milk used to produce thenonfluid milk ingredients at the posi-tive difference between the Class Iprice applicable under the other orderat the location of the plant where thenonfluid milk ingredients were proc-essed and the Class IV price. This pay-ment option shall apply only if a ma-jority of the total milk received at theplant that processed the nonfluid milkingredients is regulated under one ormore Federal orders and payment mayonly be made to the producer-settle-ment fund of the order pricing a plu-rality of the milk used to produce thenonfluid milk ingredients. This pay-ment option shall not apply if thesource of the nonfluid ingredients usedin reconstituted fluid milk productscannot be determined by the marketadministrator.

§ 1000.77 Adjustment of accounts.Whenever audit by the market ad-

ministrator of any handler’s reports,books, records, or accounts, or otherverification discloses errors resultingin money due the market adminis-trator from a handler, or due a handlerfrom the market administrator, or duea producer or cooperative associationfrom a handler, the market adminis-trator shall promptly notify such han-dler of any amount so due and paymentthereof shall be made on or before thenext date for making payments as setforth in the provisions under which theerror(s) occurred.

§ 1000.78 Charges on overdue ac-counts.

Any unpaid obligation due the mar-ket administrator, producers, or coop-erative associations from a handlerpursuant to the provisions of the ordershall be increased 1.0 percent eachmonth beginning with the day fol-lowing the date such obligation wasdue under the order. Any remainingamount due shall be increased at thesame rate on the corresponding day ofeach succeeding month until paid. The


99


amounts payable pursuant to this sec-tion shall be computed monthly oneach unpaid obligation and shall in-clude any unpaid charges previouslycomputed pursuant to this section. Thelate charges shall accrue to the admin-istrative assessment fund. For the pur-pose of this section, any obligationthat was determined at a date laterthan prescribed by the order because ofa handler’s failure to submit a reportto the market administrator when dueshall be considered to have been pay-able by the date it would have been dueif the report had been filed when due.

103


prior to the first day of July precedingthe effective date of the system. Theplants included in the system shall belisted in the sequence in which theyshall qualify for pool plant statusbased on the minimum deliveries re-quired. If the deliveries made are insuf-ficient to qualify the entire system forpooling, the last listed plant shall beexcluded from the system, followed bythe plant next-to-last on the list, andcontinuing in this sequence until re-maining listed plants have met theminimum shipping requirements; and

(2) Each plant that qualifies as a poolplant within a system shall continueeach month as a plant in the systemthrough the following July unless theplant subsequently fails to qualify forpooling, the handler submits a writtennotification to the market adminis-trator prior to the first day of themonth that the plant be deleted fromthe system, or that the system be dis-continued. Any plant that has been sodeleted from the system, or that hasfailed to qualify as a pool plant in anymonth, will not be part of the systemfor the remaining months throughJuly.

§ 1001.60 Handler’s value of milk.For the purpose of computing a han-

dler’s obligation for producer milk, themarket administrator shall determinefor each month the value of milk ofeach handler with respect to each ofthe handler’s pool plants and of eachhandler described in § 1000.9(c) with re-spect to milk that was not received ata pool plant by adding the amountscomputed in paragraphs (a) through (h)of this section and subtracting from


107


that total amount the value computedin paragraph (i) of this section. Unlessotherwise specified, the skim milk,butterfat, and the combined pounds ofskim milk and butterfat referred to inthis section shall result from the stepsset forth in § 1000.44(a), (b), and (c), re-spectively, and the nonfat componentsof producer milk in each class shall bebased upon the proportion of such com-ponents in producer skim milk. Re-ceipts of nonfluid milk products thatare distributed as labeled reconstitutedmilk for which payments are made tothe producer-settlement fund of an-other Federal order under § 1000.76(a)(4)or (d) shall be excluded from pricingunder this section.

(a) Class I value. (1) Multiply thepounds of skim milk in Class I by theClass I skim milk price; and

(2) Add an amount obtained by multi-plying the pounds of butterfat in ClassI by the Class I butterfat price.

(b) Class II value. (1) Multiply thepounds of nonfat solids in Class II skimmilk by the Class II nonfat solids price;and

(2) Add an amount obtained by multi-plying the pounds of butterfat in ClassII times the Class II butterfat price.

(2) Add an amount obtained by multi-plying the pounds of other solids inClass III skim milk by the other solidsprice; and

(3) Add an amount obtained by multi-plying the pounds of butterfat in ClassIII by the Class III butterfat price.

(d) Class IV value. (1) Multiply thepounds of nonfat solids in Class IVskim milk by the nonfat solids price;and

(2) Add an amount obtained by multi-plying the pounds of butterfat in ClassIV by the Class IV butterfat price.

(e) Multiply the pounds of skim milkand butterfat overage assigned to eachclass pursuant to § 1000.44(a)(11) and thecorresponding step of § 1000.44(b) by theskim milk prices and butterfat pricesapplicable to each class.

(f) Multiply the difference betweenthe current month’s Class I, II, or IIIprice, as the case may be, and the ClassIV price for the preceding month bythe hundredweight of skim milk and

butterfat subtracted from Class I, II, orIII, respectively, pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(7) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b);

(g) Multiply the difference betweenthe Class I price applicable at the loca-tion of the pool plant and the Class IVprice by the hundredweight of skimmilk and butterfat assigned to Class Ipursuant to § 1000.43(d) and the hun-dredweight of skim milk and butterfatsubtracted from Class I pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(3)(i) through (vi) and thecorresponding step of § 1000.44(b), ex-cluding receipts of bulk fluid creamproducts from a plant regulated underother Federal orders and bulk con-centrated fluid milk products frompool plants, plants regulated underother Federal orders, and unregulatedsupply plants.

(h) Multiply the Class I skim milkand Class I butterfat prices applicableat the location of the nearest unregu-lated supply plants from which anequivalent volume was received by thepounds of skim milk and butterfat inreceipts of concentrated fluid milkproducts assigned to Class I pursuantto § 1000.43(d) and § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) andthe corresponding step of § 1000.44(b)and the pounds of skim milk and but-terfat subtracted from Class I pursuantto § 1000.44(a)(8) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b), excluding such skimmilk and butterfat in receipts of fluidmilk products from an unregulatedsupply plant to the extent that anequivalent amount of skim milk orbutterfat disposed of to such plant byhandlers fully regulated under anyFederal milk order is classified andpriced as Class I milk and is not usedas an offset for any other payment ob-ligation under any order.

(i) For reconstituted milk made fromreceipts of nonfluid milk products,multiply $1.00 (but not more than thedifference between the Class I price ap-plicable at the location of the poolplant and the Class IV price) by thehundredweight of skim milk and but-terfat contained in receipts of nonfluidmilk products that are allocated toClass I use pursuant to § 1000.43(d).

§ 1001.61 Computation of producerbutterfat price and producer pricedifferential.

For each month, the market adminis-trator shall compute a producer but-terfat price per pound of butterfat anda producer price differential per hun-dredweight for producer milk receipts.The report of any handler who has notmade payments required pursuant to§ 1001.71 for the preceding month shallnot be included in the computation ofthese prices, and such handler’s reportshall not be included in the computa-tion for succeeding months until thehandler has made full payment of out-standing monthly obligations. Subjectto the aforementioned conditions, themarket administrator shall computethe producer butterfat price and theproducer price differential in the fol-lowing manner:

(a) Producer butterfat price. The pro-ducer butterfat price per pound, round-ed to the nearest one-hundredth cent,shall be computed by:

(1) Multiplying the pounds of but-terfat in producer milk allocated toeach class pursuant to § 1000.44(b) bythe respective class butterfat prices;

(2) Adding the butterfat value cal-culated in § 1001.60(h) for other sourcemilk allocated to Class I pursuant to§ 1000.43(d) and the steps of § 1000.44(b)that correspond to § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) and§ 1000.44(a)(8) by the Class I price; and

(3) Dividing the sum of paragraphs(a)(1) and (a)(2) of this section by thesum of the pounds of butterfat in pro-ducer milk and other source milk usedto calculate the values in paragraphs(a)(1) and (a)(2) of this section.

(b) Producer price differential. (1) Com-bine into one total the values com-puted pursuant to § 1001.60 for all han-dlers required to file reports prescribedin § 1001.30;

(2) Subtract the total of the valuesobtained:

(i) By multiplying the total pounds ofprotein, other solids, and butterfatcontained in each handler’s producermilk for which an obligation was com-puted pursuant to § 1001.60(a) through(g) and § 1001.60(i) by the protein price,other solids price, and producer but-terfat price, respectively;

(ii) By multiplying each handler’spounds of skim milk and butterfat for

which a value is computed pursuant to§ 1001.60(h) by the Class III skim milkprice and the producer butterfat price,respectively;

(3) Add an amount equal to the minuslocation adjustments and subtract anamount equal to the plus location ad-justments computed pursuant to§ 1001.75;

(4) Add an amount equal to not lessthan one-half of the unobligated bal-ance in the producer-settlement fund;

(5) Divide the resulting amount bythe sum of the following for all han-dlers included in these computations:

(i) The total hundredweight of pro-ducer milk; and

(ii) The total hundredweight forwhich a value is computed pursuant to§ 1001.60(h); and

(6) Subtract not less than 4 cents normore than 5 cents from the price com-puted pursuant to paragraph (b)(5) ofthis section. The result shall be knownas the producer price differential for themonth.

§ 1001.62 Announcement of producerprices.

On or before the 13th day after theend of the month, the market adminis-trator shall announce the followingprices and information:

(a) The producer price differential;(b) The protein price;(c) The nonfat solids price;(d) The other solids price;(e) The producer butterfat price;(f) The average butterfat, protein,

nonfat solids, and other solids contentof producer milk; and

(g) The statistical uniform pricecomputed by adding the following val-ues:

(1) The Class III skim milk pricecomputed in § 1000.50(i) multiplied by.965;

The pooling stand-ards described in paragraphs (c) and (d)of this section are subject to modifica-tion pursuant to paragraph (f) of thissection:

(a) A distributing plant, other than aplant qualified as a pool plant pursuantto paragraph (b) of this section or§ lll.7(b) of any other Federal milkorder, from which during the month 50percent or more of the fluid milk prod-ucts physically received at such plant(excluding concentrated milk receivedfrom another plant by agreement forother than Class I use) are disposed ofas route disposition or are transferredin the form of packaged fluid milkproducts to other distributing plants.At least 25 percent of such route dis-position and transfers must be to out-lets in the marketing area.


(c) A supply plant from which 50 per-cent or more of the total quantity of

milk that is physically received duringthe month from dairy farmers and han-dlers described in § 1000.9(c), includingmilk that is diverted from the plant, istransferred to pool distributing plants.Concentrated milk transferred fromthe supply plant to a distributing plantfor an agreed-upon use other than ClassI shall be excluded from the supplyplant’s shipments in computing theplant’s shipping percentage.

(d) A plant located within the mar-keting area or in the State of Virginiathat is operated by a cooperative asso-ciation if pool plant status under thisparagraph is requested for such plantby the cooperative association and dur-ing the month at least 60 percent of theproducer milk of members of such co-operative association is delivered di-rectly from farms to pool distributingplants or is transferred to such plantsas a fluid milk product (excluding con-centrated milk transferred to a distrib-uting plant for an agreed-upon useother than Class I) from the coopera-tive’s plant.

(e) Two or more plants operated bythe same handler and that are locatedwithin the marketing area may qualifyfor pool status as a unit by meeting thetotal and in-area route disposition re-quirements specified in paragraph (a)of this section and the following addi-tional requirements:

(1) At least one of the plants in theunit must qualify as a pool plant pur-suant to paragraph (a) of this section;

(2) Other plants in the unit mustprocess only Class I or Class II prod-ucts and must be located in a pricingzone providing the same or a lowerClass I price than the price applicableat the distributing plant included inthe unit pursuant to paragraph (e)(1) ofthis section; and

a finding, the market administratorshall investigate the need for adjust-ment either on the market administra-tor’s own initiative or at the request ofinterested parties if the request ismade in writing at least 15 days priorto the date for which the requested re-vision is desired effective. If the inves-tigation shows that an adjustment ofthe shipping percentages might be ap-propriate, the market administratorshall issue a notice stating that an ad-justment is being considered and invitedata, views and arguments. Any deci-sion to revise an applicable shippingpercentage must be issued in writing atleast one day before the effective date.

(g) The term pool plant shall notapply to the following plants:

UNIFORM PRICES


dler’s obligation for producer milk, themarket administrator shall determinefor each month the value of milk ofeach handler with respect to each ofthe handler’s pool plants and of eachhandler described in § 1000.9(c) with re-spect to milk that was not received ata pool plant by adding the amountscomputed in paragraphs (a) through (e)of this section and subtracting fromthat total amount the value computedin paragraph (f) of this section. Re-ceipts of nonfluid milk products thatare distributed as labeled reconstitutedmilk for which payments are made tothe producer-settlement fund of an-other Federal order under § 1000.76(a)(4)or (d) shall be excluded from pricingunder this section.

(a) Multiply the pounds of skim milkand butterfat in producer milk thatwere classified in each class pursuantto § 1000.44(c) by the applicable skimmilk and butterfat prices, and add theresulting amounts;

§ 1005.61 Computation of uniformprices.

On or before the 11th day of eachmonth, the market administrator shallcompute a uniform butterfat price, auniform skim milk price, and a uni-form price for producer milk receiptsreported for the prior month. The re-port of any handler who has not madepayments required pursuant to § 1005.71for the preceding month shall not beincluded in the computation of these

prices, and such handler’s report shallnot be included in the computation forsucceeding months until the handlerhas made full payment of outstandingmonthly obligations.

(a) Uniform butterfat price. The uni-form butterfat price per pound, round-ed to the nearest one-hundredth cent,shall be computed by:


(2) Adding the butterfat value cal-culated in § 1005.60(e) for other sourcemilk allocated to Class I pursuant to§ 1000.43(d) and the steps of § 1000.44(b)that correspond to § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) and§ 1000.44(a)(8) by the Class I price; and


(b) Uniform skim milk price. The uni-form skim milk price per hundred-weight, rounded to the nearest cent,shall be computed as follows:

(1) Combine into one total the valuescomputed pursuant to § 1005.60 for allhandlers;



(4) Subtract the value of the totalpounds of butterfat for all handlers.The butterfat value shall be computedby multiplying the sum of the poundsof butterfat in producer milk and othersource milk used to calculate the val-ues in paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) ofthis section by the butterfat price com-puted in paragraph (a) of this section;


(i) The total skim pounds of producermilk; and

(ii) The total skim pounds for whicha value is computed pursuant to§ 1005.60(e); and

(6) Subtract not less than 4 cents andnot more than 5 cents.

(2) Multiply the uniform skim milkprice for the month pursuant to para-graph (b) of this section times 96.5pounds of skim milk.


§ 1005.62 Announcement of uniformprices.

On or before the 11th day after theend of the month, the market adminis-trator shall announce the uniformprices for the month computed pursu-ant to § 1005.61.

PAYMENTS FOR MILK



Each handler shall make a paymentto the producer-settlement fund in amanner that provides receipt of thefunds by the market administrator nolater than the 12th day after the end ofthe month (except as provided in§ 1000.90).

(a) The total value of milk of thehandler for the month as determinedpursuant to § 1005.60; and

(b) The sum of the value at the uni-form prices for skim milk and but-terfat, adjusted for plant location, ofthe handler’s receipts of producer milk;and the value at the uniform price, asadjusted pursuant to § 1005.75, applica-ble at the location of the plant fromwhich received of other source milk forwhich a value is computed pursuant to§ 1005.60(e).


No later than one day after the dateof payment receipt required under

§ 1005.71, the market administratorshall pay to each handler the amount,if any, by which the amount computedpursuant to § 1005.71(b) exceeds theamount computed pursuant to§ 1005.71(a). If, at such time, the balancein the producer-settlement fund is in-sufficient to make all payments pursu-ant to this section, the market admin-istrator shall reduce uniformly suchpayments and shall complete the pay-ments as soon as the funds are avail-able.



(1) Partial payment. For each producerwho has not discontinued shipments asof the 23rd day of the month, paymentshall be made so that it is received bythe producer on or before the 26th dayof the month (except as provided in§ 1000.90) for milk received during thefirst 15 days of the month at not lessthan 90 percent of the precedingmonth’s uniform price, adjusted forplant location pursuant to § 1005.75 andproper deductions authorized in writ-ing by the producer.

(2) Final payment. For milk receivedduring the month, a payment com-puted as follows shall be made so thatit is received by each producer one dayafter the payment date required in§ 1005.72:

(i) Multiply the hundredweight ofproducer skim milk received times theuniform skim milk price for themonth;

(ii) Multiply the pounds of butterfatreceived times the uniform butterfatprice for the month;

(iii) Multiply the hundredweight ofproducer milk received times the plantlocation adjustment pursuant to§ 1005.75; and

(iv) Add the amounts computed inparagraph (a)(2)(i), (ii), and (iii) of thissection, and from that sum:

(b) One day before partial and finalpayments are due pursuant to para-graph (a) of this section, each handlershall pay a cooperative association formilk received as follows:

(1) Partial payment to a cooperative as-sociation for bulk milk received directlyfrom producers’ farms. For bulk milk(including the milk of producers whoare not members of such associationand who the market administrator de-termines have authorized the coopera-tive association to collect payment fortheir milk) received during the first 15days of the month from a cooperativeassociation in any capacity, except asthe operator of a pool plant, the pay-ment shall be equal to the hundred-weight of milk received multiplied by90 percent of the preceding month’suniform price, adjusted for plant loca-tion pursuant to § 1005.75.

(2) Partial payment to a cooperative as-sociation for milk transferred from its poolplant. For bulk fluid milk products andbulk fluid cream products received dur-ing the first 15 days of the month froma cooperative association in its capac-ity as the operator of a pool plant, thepartial payment shall be at the poolplant operator’s estimated use value ofthe milk using the most recent classprices available for skim milk and but-terfat at the receiving plant’s location.

(3) Final payment to a cooperative asso-ciation for milk transferred from its poolplant. For bulk fluid milk products andbulk fluid cream products received dur-ing the month from a cooperative asso-ciation in its capacity as the operatorof a pool plant, the final payment shallbe the classified value of such milk asdetermined by multiplying the poundsof skim milk and butterfat assigned toeach class pursuant to § 1000.44 by theclass prices for the month at the re-ceiving plant’s location, and sub-tracting from this sum the partial pay-ment made pursuant to paragraph(b)(2) of this section.

(4) Final payment to a cooperative asso-ciation for bulk milk received directlyfrom producers’ farms. For bulk milk re-ceived from a cooperative association

during the month, including the milkof producers who are not members ofsuch association and who the marketadministrator determines have author-ized the cooperative association to col-lect payment for their milk, the finalpayment for such milk shall be anamount equal to the sum of the indi-vidual payments otherwise payable forsuch milk pursuant to paragraph (a)(2)of this section.



(e) In making payments to producerspursuant to this section, each poolplant operator shall furnish each pro-ducer, except a producer whose milkwas received from a cooperative asso-ciation described in § 1000.9(a) or (c), asupporting statement in such formthat it may be retained by the recipi-ent which shall show:



(3) The total pounds of butterfat inthe producer’s milk;

§ 1005.80 Transportation credit bal-ancing fund.

The market administrator shallmaintain a separate fund known as theTransportation Credit Balancing Fundinto which shall be deposited the pay-ments made by handlers pursuant to§ 1005.81 and out of which shall be madethe payments due handlers pursuant to§ 1005.82. Payments due a handler shallbe offset against payments due fromthe handler.

§ 1005.81 Payments to the transpor-tation credit balancing fund.

(a) On or before the 12th day after theend of the month (except as provided in§ 1000.90), each handler operating a poolplant and each handler specified in§ 1000.9(c) shall pay to the market ad-ministrator a transportation creditbalancing fund assessment determinedby multiplying the pounds of Class Iproducer milk assigned pursuant to§ 1005.44 by $0.065 per hundredweight orsuch lesser amount as the market ad-ministrator deems necessary to main-tain a balance in the fund equal to thetotal transportation credits disbursedduring the prior June–January period.In the event that during any month ofthe June–January period the fund bal-ance is insufficient to cover theamount of credits that are due, the as-sessment should be based upon theamount of credits that would have beendisbursed had the fund balance beensufficient.

(b) The market administrator shallannounce publicly on or before the 5thday of the month (except as provided in§ 1000.90) the assessment pursuant toparagraph (a) of this section for the fol-lowing month.

(a) Payments from the transpor-tation credit balancing fund to han-dlers and cooperative associations re-questing transportation credits shallbe made as follows:

(1) On or before the 13th day (exceptas provided in § 1000.90) after the end ofeach of the months of July through De-cember and any other month in whichtransportation credits are in effect pur-suant to paragraph (b) of this section,the market administrator shall pay toeach handler that received, and re-ported pursuant to § 1005.30(a)(5), bulkmilk transferred from a plant fully reg-ulated under another Federal order asdescribed in paragraph (c)(1) of thissection or that received, and reportedpursuant to § 1005.30(a)(6), milk directlyfrom producers’ farms as specified inparagraph (c)(2) of this section, a pre-liminary amount determined pursuantto paragraph (d) of this section to theextent that funds are available in thetransportation credit balancing fund. If


122

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1005.82

an insufficient balance exists to pay allof the credits computed pursuant tothis section, the market administratorshall distribute the balance availablein the transportation credit balancingfund by reducing payments proratausing the percentage derived by divid-ing the balance in the fund by the totalcredits that are due for the month. Theamount of credits resulting from thisinitial proration shall be subject toaudit adjustment pursuant to para-graph (a)(2) of this section.

(2) The market administrator shallaccept adjusted requests for transpor-tation credits on or before the 20th dayof the month following the month forwhich such credits were requested pur-suant to § 1005.32(a). After such date, apreliminary audit will be conducted bythe market administrator, who will re-calculate any necessary proration oftransportation credit payments for thepreceding month pursuant to para-graph (a) of this section. Handlers willbe promptly notified of an overpay-ment of credits based upon this finalcomputation and remedial payments toor from the transportation credit bal-ancing fund will be made on or beforethe next payment date for the fol-lowing month.

(3) Transportation credits paid pursu-ant to paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of thissection shall be subject to finalverification by the market adminis-trator pursuant to § 1000.77. Adjustedpayments to or from the transpor-tation credit balancing fund will re-main subject to the final proration es-tablished pursuant to paragraph (a)(2)of this section.

(4) In the event that a qualified coop-erative association is the responsibleparty for whose account such milk isreceived and written documentation ofthis fact is provided to the market ad-ministrator pursuant to § 1005.30(c)(3)prior to the date payment is due, thetransportation credits for such milkcomputed pursuant to this sectionshall be made to such cooperative asso-ciation rather than to the operator ofthe pool plant at which the milk wasreceived.

(b) The market administrator mayextend the period during which trans-portation credits are in effect (i.e., thetransportation credit period) to the

months of January and June if a writ-ten request to do so is received 15 daysprior to the beginning of the month forwhich the request is made and, afterconducting an independent investiga-tion, finds that such extension is nec-essary to assure the market of an ade-quate supply of milk for fluid use. Be-fore making such a finding, the marketadministrator shall notify the Directorof the Dairy Division and all handlersin the market that an extension isbeing considered and invite writtendata, views, and arguments. Any deci-sion to extend the transportation cred-it period must be issued in writingprior to the first day of the month forwhich the extension is to be effective.

(c) Transportation credits shall applyto the following milk:

(1) Bulk milk received from a plantregulated under another Federal order,except Federal Order 1007, and allo-cated to Class I milk pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(9); and

(2) Bulk milk received directly fromthe farms of dairy farmers at pool dis-tributing plants subject to the fol-lowing conditions:

(i) The quantity of such milk thatshall be eligible for the transportationcredit shall be determined by multi-plying the total pounds of milk re-ceived from producers meeting the con-ditions of this paragraph by the lowerof:

(A) The marketwide estimated ClassI utilization of all handlers for themonth pursuant to § 1000.45(a); or

(B) The Class I utilization of all pro-ducer milk of the pool plant operatorreceiving the milk after the computa-tions described in § 1000.44;

(ii) The dairy farmer was not a ‘‘pro-ducer’’ under this order during morethan 2 of the immediately precedingmonths of February through May andnot more than 50 percent of the produc-tion of the dairy farmer during those 2months, in aggregate, was received asproducer milk under this order duringthose 2 months; and

(iii) The farm on which the milk wasproduced is not located within thespecified marketing area of the orderin this part or the marketing area ofFederal Order 1007 (7 CFR part 1007).

(d) Transportation credits shall becomputed as follows:

tion exceeds the amount specified inparagraph (b) of this section:




No later than one day after the dateof payment receipt required under§ 1006.71, the market administratorshall pay to each handler the amount,if any, by which the amount computedpursuant to § 1006.71(b) exceeds theamount computed pursuant to§ 1006.71(a). If, at such time, the balancein the producer-settlement fund is in-sufficient to make all payments pursu-ant to this section, the market admin-istrator shall reduce uniformly suchpayments and shall complete the pay-ments as soon as the funds are avail-able.



(1) Partial payments. (i) For each pro-ducer who has not discontinued ship-ments as of the 15th day of the month,payment shall be made so that it is re-ceived by the producer on or before the20th day of the month (except as pro-vided in § 1000.90) for milk received dur-ing the first 15 days of the month atnot less than 85 percent of the pre-ceding month’s uniform price, adjustedfor plant location pursuant to § 1006.75and proper deductions authorized inwriting by the producer; and

131


§ 1000.90) for milk received from the16th to the last day of the month at notless than 85 percent of the precedingmonth’s uniform price, adjusted forplant location pursuant to § 1006.75 andproper deductions authorized in writ-ing by the producer.





(iv) Add the amounts computed inparagraphs (a)(2)(i), (ii), and (iii) of thissection, and from that sum:

(A) Subtract the partial paymentsmade pursuant to paragraph (a)(1) ofthis section;





(1) Partial payment to a cooperative as-sociation for bulk milk received directlyfrom producers’ farms. For bulk milk(including the milk of producers whoare not members of such associationand who the market administrator de-termines have authorized the coopera-tive association to collect payment fortheir milk) received from a cooperativeassociation in any capacity, except asthe operator of a pool plant, the pay-ment shall be equal to the hundred-weight of milk received multiplied by90 percent of the preceding month’suniform price, adjusted for plant loca-tion pursuant to § 1006.75.





(d) If a handler claims that a requiredpayment to a producer cannot be madebecause the producer is deceased or


132

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1006.74

cannot be located, or because the coop-erative association or its lawful suc-cessor or assignee is no longer in exist-ence, the payment shall be made to theproducer-settlement fund, and in theevent that the handler subsequently lo-cates and pays the producer or a lawfulclaimant, or in the event that the han-dler no longer exists and a lawful claimis later established, the market admin-istrator shall make the required pay-ment from the producer-settlementfund to the handler or to the lawfulclaimant as the case may be.












For purposes of making payments forproducer milk and nonpool milk, aplant location adjustment shall be de-termined by subtracting the Class Iprice specified in § 1006.51 from theClass I price at the plant’s location.

The difference, plus or minus as thecase may be, shall be used to adjust thepayments required pursuant to§§ 1006.73 and 1000.76.

during the prior June–January period.In the event that during any month ofthe June–January period the fund bal-ance is insufficient to cover theamount of credits that are due, the as-sessment should be based upon theamount of credits that would have beendisbursed had the fund balance beensufficient.

(b) The market administrator shallannounce publicly on or before the 5thday of the month (except as provided in§ 1000.90) the assessment pursuant toparagraph (a) of this section for the fol-lowing month.

§ 1007.82 Payments from the transpor-tation credit balancing fund.

(a) Payments from the transpor-tation credit balancing fund to han-dlers and cooperative associations re-questing transportation credits shallbe made as follows:

(1) On or before the 13th day (exceptas provided in § 1000.90) after the end ofeach of the months of July through De-cember and any other month in whichtransportation credits are in effect pur-suant to paragraph (b) of this section,the market administrator shall pay toeach handler that received, and re-ported pursuant to § 1007.30(a)(5), bulkmilk transferred from a plant fully reg-ulated under another Federal order asdescribed in paragraph (c)(1) of thissection or that received, and reportedpursuant to § 1007.30(a)(6), milk directlyfrom producers’ farms as specified inparagraph (c)(2) of this section, a pre-liminary amount determined pursuantto paragraph (d) of this section to theextent that funds are available in thetransportation credit balancing fund.

(i) The quantity of such milk thatshall be eligible for the transportationcredit shall be determined by multi-plying the total pounds of milk re-ceived from producers meeting the con-ditions of this paragraph by the lowerof:

(A) The marketwide estimated ClassI utilization of all handlers for themonth pursuant to § 1000.45(a); or

(B) The Class I utilization of all pro-ducer milk of the pool plant operatorreceiving the milk after the computa-tions described in § 1000.44;

(ii) The dairy farmer was not a ‘‘pro-ducer’’ under the order in this part dur-ing more than 2 of the immediatelypreceding months of February throughMay and not more than 50 percent ofthe production of the dairy farmer dur-ing those 2 months, in aggregate, wasreceived as producer milk under theorder in this part during those 2months; and

(iii) The farm on which the milk wasproduced is not located within thespecified marketing area of the orderin this part or the marketing area ofFederal Order 1005 (7 CFR part 1005).

(d) Transportation credits shall becomputed as follows:

(1) The market administrator shallsubtract from the pounds of milk de-scribed in paragraphs (c)(1) and (2) ofthis section the pounds of bulk milktransferred from the pool plant receiv-ing the supplemental milk if milk wastransferred to a nonpool plant on thesame calendar day that the supple-mental milk was received. For thispurpose, the transferred milk shall besubtracted from the most distant loadof supplemental milk received, andthen in sequence with the next mostdistant load until all of the transfershave been offset;


144

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1007.85

(2) With respect to the pounds ofmilk described in paragraph (c)(1) ofthis section that remain after the com-putations described in paragraph (d)(1)of this section, the market adminis-trator shall:

(3) For the remaining milk describedin paragraph (c)(2) of this section aftercomputations described in paragraph(d)(1) of this section, the market ad-ministrator shall:

(i) Determine an origination point foreach load of milk by locating the near-est city to the last producer’s farmfrom which milk was picked up for de-livery to the receiving pool plant;

(ii) Determine the shortest hard-sur-face highway distance between the re-ceiving pool plant and the originationpoint;

(iii) Subtract 85 miles from the mile-age so determined;

(iv) Multiply the remaining miles socomputed by 0.35 cent;

(v) Subtract the Class I differentialspecified in § 1000.52 applicable for thecounty in which the origination pointis located from the Class I differentialapplicable at the receiving pool plant’slocation;

(vi) Subtract any positive differencecomputed in paragraph (d)(3)(v) of thissection from the amount computed inparagraph (d)(3)(iv) of this section; and

(2) Multiply the hundredweight ofmilk eligible for the credit by .28 centstimes the number of miles between thetransferor plant and the transfereeplant;

(3) Subtract the effective Class Iprice at the transferor plant from theeffective Class I price at the transfereeplant;

(4) Multiply any positive amount re-sulting from the subtraction in para-graph (a)(3) of this section by the hun-dredweight of milk eligible for thecredit; and

(5) Subtract the amount computed inparagraph (a)(4) of this section fromthe amount computed in paragraph(a)(2) of this section. If the amountcomputed in paragraph (a)(4) of thissection exceeds the amount computedin paragraph (a)(2) of this section, thetransportation credit shall be zero.

(b) Each handler operating a pool dis-tributing plant described in § 1030.7(a),(b), or (e) that receives milk from dairyfarmers, each handler that transfers ordiverts bulk milk from a pool plant toa pool distributing plant, and each han-dler described in § 1000.9(c) that deliversproducer milk to a pool distributingplant shall receive an assembly crediton the portion of such milk eligible forthe credit pursuant to paragraph (c) ofthis section. The credit shall be com-puted by multiplying the hundred-weight of milk eligible for the creditby 8 cents.

(c) The following procedure shall beused to determine the amount of milk

eligible for transportation and assem-bly credits pursuant to paragraphs (a)and (b) of this section:

(1) At each pool distributing plant,determine the aggregate quantity ofClass I milk, excluding beginning in-ventory of packaged fluid milk prod-ucts;

(2) Subtract the quantity of packagedfluid milk products received at thepool distributing plant from other poolplants and from nonpool plants if suchreceipts are assigned to Class I;

(3) Subtract the quantity of bulkmilk shipped from the pool distrib-uting plant to other plants to the ex-tent that such milk is classified asClass I milk;

(4) Subtract the quantity of bulkmilk received at the pool distributingplant from other order plants and un-regulated supply plants that is as-signed to Class I pursuant to§§ 1000.43(d) and 1000.44; and

(5) Assign the remaining quantity prorata to physical receipts during themonth from:

(i) Producers;(ii) Handlers described in § 1000.9(c);

and(iii) Other pool plants.(d) For purposes of this section, the

distances to be computed shall be de-termined by the market administratorusing the shortest available state and/or Federal highway mileage. Mileagedeterminations are subject to redeter-mination at all times. In the event ahandler requests a redetermination ofthe mileage pertaining to any plant,the market administrator shall notifythe handler of such redeterminationwithin 30 days after the receipt of suchrequest. Any financial obligations re-sulting from a change in mileage shallnot be retroactive for any periods priorto the redetermination by the marketadministrator.


§ 1030.60 Handler’s value of milk.

For the purpose of computing a han-dler’s obligation for producer milk, themarket administrator shall determinefor each month the value of milk ofeach handler with respect to each ofthe handler’s pool plants and of each


152

7 CFR Ch. X (1–1–01 Edition)§ 1030.60

handler described in § 1000.9(c) with re-spect to milk that was not received ata pool plant by adding the amountscomputed in paragraphs (a) through (i)of this section and subtracting fromthat total amount the values computedin paragraphs (j) and (k) of this sec-tion. Unless otherwise specified, theskim milk, butterfat, and the com-bined pounds of skim milk and but-terfat referred to in this section shallresult from the steps set forth in§ 1000.44(a), (b), and (c), respectively,and the nonfat components of producermilk in each class shall be based uponthe proportion of such components inproducer skim milk. Receipts ofnonfluid milk products that are dis-tributed as labeled reconstituted milkfor which payments are made to theproducer-settlement fund of anotherFederal order under § 1000.76(a)(4) or (d)shall be excluded from pricing underthis section.










(e) Compute an adjustment for thesomatic cell content of producer milkby multiplying the values reported pur-suant to § 1030.30(a)(1) and (c)(1) by thepercentage of total producer milk allo-

cated to Class II, Class III, and Class IVpursuant to § 1000.44(c);

(f) Multiply the pounds of skim milkand butterfat overage assigned to eachclass pursuant to § 1000.44(a)(11) and thecorresponding step of § 1000.44(b) by theskim milk prices and butterfat pricesapplicable to each class.

(g) Multiply the difference betweenthe current month’s Class I, II, or IIIprice, as the case may be, and the ClassIV price for the preceding month andby the hundredweight of skim milk andbutterfat subtracted from Class I, II, orIII, respectively, pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(7) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b);

(h) Multiply the difference betweenthe Class I price applicable at the loca-tion of the pool plant and the Class IVprice by the hundredweight of skimmilk and butterfat assigned to Class Ipursuant to § 1000.43(d) and the hun-dredweight of skim milk and butterfatsubtracted from Class I pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(3)(i) through (vi) and thecorresponding step of § 1000.44(b), ex-cluding receipts of bulk fluid creamproducts from plants regulated underother Federal orders and bulk con-centrated fluid milk products frompool plants, plants regulated underother Federal orders, and unregulatedsupply plants.

(i) Multiply the Class I skim milkand Class I butterfat prices applicableat the location of the nearest unregu-lated supply plants from which anequivalent volume was received by thepounds of skim milk and butterfat inreceipts of concentrated fluid milkproducts assigned to Class I pursuantto § 1000.43(d) and § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) andthe corresponding step of § 1000.44(b)and the pounds of skim milk and but-terfat subtracted from Class I pursuantto § 1000.44(a)(8) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b), excluding such skimmilk and butterfat in receipts of fluidmilk products from an unregulatedsupply plant to the extent that anequivalent amount of skim milk orbutterfat disposed of to such plant byhandlers fully regulated under anyFederal milk order is classified andpriced as Class I milk and is not usedas an offset for any other payment ob-ligation under any order.


153


(j) For reconstituted milk made fromreceipts of nonfluid milk products,multiply $1.00 (but not more than thedifference between the Class I price ap-plicable at the location of the poolplant and the Class IV price) by thehundredweight of skim milk and but-terfat contained in receipts of nonfluidmilk products that are allocated toClass I use pursuant to § 1000.43(d).

(k) Compute the amount of creditsapplicable pursuant to § 1030.55.



For each month the market adminis-trator shall compute a producer but-terfat price per pound of butterfat anda producer price differential per hun-dredweight for producer milk receipts.The report of any handler who has notmade payments required pursuant to§ 1030.71 for the preceding month shallnot be included in the computation ofthese prices, and such handler’s reportshall not be included in the computa-tion for succeeding months until thehandler has made full payment of out-standing monthly obligations. Subjectto the conditions of this paragraph, themarket administrator shall computethe producer butterfat price and theproducer price differential in the fol-lowing manner:



(2) Adding the butterfat value cal-culated in § 1030.60(i) for other sourcemilk allocated to Class I pursuant to§ 1000.43(d) and the steps of § 1000.44(b)that correspond to § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) and§ 1000.44(a)(8) by the Class I price; and


(b) Producer price differential. (1) Com-bine into one total the values com-

puted pursuant to § 1030.60 for all han-dlers required to file reports prescribedin § 1030.30;


(i) By multiplying the total pounds ofprotein, other solids, and butterfatcontained in each handler’s producermilk for which an obligation was com-puted pursuant to § 1030.60(a) through(h) and § 1030.60(j) by the protein price,other solids price, and producer but-terfat price, respectively, and the totalvalue of the somatic cell adjustmentpursuant to § 1030.30(a)(1) and (c)(1);

(ii) By multiplying each handler’spounds of skim milk and butterfat forwhich a value is computed pursuant to§ 1030.60(i) by the Class III skim milkprice and the producer butterfat price,respectively;





(ii) The total hundredweight forwhich a value is computed pursuant to§ 1030.60(i); and


[65 FR 82836, Dec. 28, 2000]


On or before the 13th day after theend of each month, the market admin-istrator shall announce publicly thefollowing prices and information:

(2) The handler(s) establishing thesystem submits a written request tothe market administrator on or beforeSeptember 1 requesting that suchplants qualify as a system for the pe-riod of September through August ofthe following year. Such request willcontain a list of the plants partici-pating in the system;

(3) Each plant included within a poolsupply plant system shall continueeach month as a plant in the systemthrough the following August unlessthe handler(s) establishing the systemsubmits a written request to the mar-ket administrator that the plant be de-leted from the system or that the sys-tem be discontinued. Any plant thathas been so deleted from a system, orthat has failed to qualify in anymonth, will not be part of any systemfor the remaining months through Au-gust. No plant may be added in anysubsequent month through the fol-lowing August to a system that quali-fies in September; and

(4) If a system fails to qualify underthe requirements of this paragraph, thehandler responsible for qualifying thesystem shall notify the market admin-istrator which plant or plants will bedeleted from the system so that the re-maining plants may be pooled as a sys-tem. If the handler fails to do so, themarket administrator shall excludeone or more plants, beginning at thebottom of the list of plants in the sys-tem and continuing up the list as nec-

essary until the deliveries are suffi-cient to qualify the remaining plantsin the system.

(g) The applicable shipping percent-ages of paragraphs (c), (d), and (f) ofthis section may be increased or de-creased, for all or part of the mar-keting area, by the market adminis-trator if the market administratorfinds that such adjustment is necessaryto encourage needed shipments or toprevent uneconomic shipments. Beforemaking such a finding, the market ad-ministrator shall investigate the needfor adjustment either on the marketadministrator’s own initiative or atthe request of interested parties if therequest is made in writing at least 15days prior to the month for which therequested revision is desired effective.If the investigation shows that an ad-justment of the shipping percentagesmight be appropriate, the market ad-ministrator shall issue a notice statingthat an adjustment is being consideredand invite data, views and arguments.Any decision to revise an applicableshipping percentage must be issued inwriting at least one day before the ef-fective date.

For the purpose of computing a han-dler’s obligation for producer milk, themarket administrator shall determinefor each month the value of milk ofeach handler with respect to each ofthe handler’s pool plants and of eachhandler described in § 1000.9(c) with re-spect to milk that was not received ata pool plant by adding the amountscomputed in paragraphs (a) through (i)of this section and subtracting fromthat total amount the value computedin paragraph (j) of this section. Unlessotherwise specified, the skim milk,butterfat, and the combined pounds ofskim milk and butterfat referred to inthis section shall result from the steps


177


set forth in § 1000.44(a), (b), and (c), re-spectively, and the nonfat componentsof producer milk in each class shall bebased upon the proportion of such com-ponents in producer skim milk. Re-ceipts of nonfluid milk products thatare distributed as labeled reconstitutedmilk for which payments are made tothe producer-settlement fund of an-other Federal order under § 1000.76(a)(4)or (d) shall be excluded from pricingunder this section.

(a) Class I value.(1) Multiply the pounds of skim milk

in Class I by the Class I skim milkprice; and


(b) Class II value.(1) Multiply the pounds of nonfat sol-

ids in Class II skim milk by the ClassII nonfat solids price; and


(c) Class III value.(1) Multiply the pounds of protein in

Class III skim milk by the proteinprice;



(d) Class IV value.(1) Multiply the pounds of nonfat sol-

ids in Class IV skim milk by the nonfatsolids price; and




(g) Multiply the difference betweenthe current month’s Class I, II, or III

price, as the case may be, and the ClassIV price for the preceding month bythe hundredweight of skim milk andbutterfat subtracted from Class I, II, orIII, respectively, pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(7) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b);

(h) Multiply the difference betweenthe Class I price applicable at the loca-tion of the pool plant and the Class IVprice by the hundredweight of skimmilk and butterfat assigned to Class Ipursuant to § 1000.43(d) and the hun-dredweight of skim milk and butterfatsubtracted from Class I pursuant to§ 1000.44(a)(3)(i) through (vi) and thecorresponding step of § 1000.44(b), ex-cluding receipts of bulk fluid creamproducts from a plant regulated underother Federal orders and bulk con-centrated fluid milk products frompool plants, plants regulated underother Federal orders, and unregulatedsupply plants.


(i) Multiply the Class I skim milkand Class I butterfat prices applicableat the location of the nearest unregu-lated supply plants from which anequivalent volume was received by thepounds of skim milk and butterfat inreceipts of concentrated fluid milkproducts assigned to Class I pursuantto § 1000.43(d) and § 1000.44(a)(3)(i) andthe corresponding step of § 1000.44(b)and the pounds of skim milk and but-terfat subtracted from Class I pursuantto § 1000.44(a)(8) and the correspondingstep of § 1000.44(b), excluding such skimmilk and butterfat in receipts of fluidmilk products from an unregulatedsupply plant to the extent that anequivalent amount of skim milk orbutterfat disposed of to such plant byhandlers fully regulated under anyFederal milk order is classified andpriced as Class I milk and is not used

as an offset for any other payment ob-ligation under any order.



For each month the market adminis-trator shall compute a producer but-terfat price per pound of butterfat anda producer price differential per hun-dredweight for producer milk receipts.The report of any handler who has notmade payments required pursuant to§ 1033.71 for the preceding month shallnot be included in the computation ofthese prices, and such handler’s reportshall not be included in the computa-tion for succeeding months until thehandler has made full payment of out-standing monthly obligations. Subjectto the conditions of this paragraph, themarket administrator shall computethe producer butterfat price and theproducer price differential in the fol-lowing manner:







(i) By multiplying the total pounds ofprotein, other solids, and butterfatcontained in each handler’s producermilk for which an obligation was com-puted pursuant to § 1033.60(a) through

(h) and § 1033.60(j) by the protein price,other solids price, and producer but-terfat price, respectively, and the totalvalue of the somatic cell adjustmentpursuant to § 1033.30(a)(1) and (c)(1);
