                to develop more consistent estimates of food aid needs 
                and the number of intended recipients to appropriately 
                inform the purchases of commodities and in order to 
                appropriately plan for commodity procurement for food 
                aid programs;
            (2) provide the matter described under subsection (1) of

            (1) identify existing Federal programs that provide 
        assistance to rural small businesses in developing tourism 
        marketing and promotion plans relating to tourism in rural 
        areas;
            (2) identify existing Federal programs that assist rural 
        small business concerns in obtaining capital for starting or 
        expanding businesses primarily serving tourists; and
            (3) include recommendations, if any, for improving existing 
        programs or creating new Federal programs that may benefit

    Sec. 750.  Notwithstanding any other provision of law and until the 
receipt of the decennial census in the year 2010, the Secretary of 
Agriculture may fund community facility and water and waste disposal 
projects of communities and municipal districts and areas in 
Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island that filed applications 
for the projects with the appropriate rural development field office of 
the Department of Agriculture prior to August 1, 2009, and were 
determined by the field office to be eligible for funding.
    Sec. 751. (a) The Senate finds that--
            (1) sudden loss in late 2008 of export-market based demand 
        equivalent to about 3 percent of domestic milk production has 
        thrown the U.S. dairy industry into a critical supply-demand 
        imbalance;
            (2) an abrupt decline in U.S. exports was fueled by the 
        onset of the global economic crisis combined with resurgence of 
        milk supplies in Oceania;
            (3) the U.S. average all-milk price reported by the 
        National Agriculture Statistics Service from January through 
        May of 2009, has averaged $4.80 per hundredweight below the 
        cost of production;
            (4) approximately $3,900,000,000 in dairy producer equity 
        has been lost since January;
            (5) anecdotal evidence suggests that U.S. dairy producers 
        are losing upwards of $100 per cow per month;
            (6) the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 extended 
        the counter-cyclical Milk Income Loss Contract (MILC) support 
        program and instituted a `feed cost adjuster' to augment that 
        support;
            (7) the Secretary of Agriculture in March transferred 
        approximately 200,000,000 pounds of nonfat dry milk to USDA's 
        Food and Nutrition Service in a move designed to remove 
        inventory from the market and support low-income families;
            (8) the Secretary on March 22nd reactivated USDA's Dairy 
        Export Incentive Program (DEIP) to help U.S. producers meet 
        prevailing world prices and develop international markets;
            (9) the Secretary announced on July 31, 2009 a temporary 
        increase in the amount paid for dairy products through the 
        Dairy Product Price Support Program (DPPSP), an adjustment that 
        is projected to increase dairy farmers' revenue by 
        $243,000,000; and
            (10) U.S. dairy producers face unprecedented challenges 
        that threaten the stability of the industry, the nation's milk 
        production infrastructure, and thousands of rural communities.
    (b) The Senate states that the Secretary of Agriculture and the 
President's Office of Management and Budget should continue to closely 
monitor the U.S. dairy sector and use all available discretionary 
authority to ensure its long-term health and sustainability.
    Sec. 752. (a) The Commissioner of Food and Drugs, in consultation 
with the Secretary of Agriculture, may conduct a study on the labeling 
of personal care products regulated by the Food and Drug Administration 
for which organic content claims are made. Any such study shall 
include--
            (1) a survey of personal care products for which the word 
        ``organic'' appears on the label; and
            (2) a determination, based on statistical sampling of the 
        products identified under paragraph (1), of the accuracy of 
        such claims.
    (b) If the Commissioner of Food and Drugs conducts a study 
described in subsection (a), such Commissioner shall--
            (1) not later than 270 days after the date of enactment of 
        this Act, submit to the Committees on Agriculture, Nutrition, 
        and Forestry, Appropriations, and Health, Education, Labor, and 
        Pensions in the Senate and the Committees on Agriculture, 
        Appropriations, and Energy and Commerce in the House of 
        Representatives a report on the findings of the study under 
        subsection (a); and
            (2) provide such Committees with any recommendations on the 
        need to establish labeling standards for personal care products 
        for which organic content claims are made, including whether 
        the Food and Drug Administration should have pre-market 
        approval authority for personal care product labeling.
    Sec. 753. (a) The Senate finds that--
            (1) agriculture is a national security concern;
            (2) the United States suffers from periodic disasters which 
        affects the food and fiber supply of the United States;
            (3) the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008 (7 
        U.S.C. 8701 et seq.) established 5 permanent disaster programs 
        to deliver timely and immediate assistance to agricultural 
        producers recovering from losses;
            (4) as of the date of enactment of this Act, of those 5 
        disaster programs--
                    (A) none are available, finalized, and implemented 
                to deliver urgently needed assistance for 2009 producer 
                losses; and
                    (B) only 1 is being implemented for 2008 losses;
            (5) according to the Drought Monitor, the State of Texas is 
        suffering from extreme and exceptional drought conditions, the 
        highest level of severity; and
            (6) the Secretary of Agriculture has previously authorized 
        various forms of disaster assistance by providing funding under 
        section 32 of the Act of August 24, 1935 (7 U.S.C. 612c), and 
        through the Commodity Credit Corporation.
    (b) It is the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of Agriculture 
should use all of the discretionary authority available to the 
Secretary to make available immediate relief and assistance for 
agricultural producers suffering losses as a result of the 2009 
droughts.
    Sec. 754. (a) The Senate finds that--
            (1) with livestock producers facing losses from harsh 
        weather in 2008 and continuing to face disasters in 2009, 
        Congress wanted to assist livestock producers in recovering 
        losses more quickly and efficiently than previous ad hoc 
        disaster assistance programs;
            (2) on June 18, 2008, Congress established the livestock 
        indemnity program under section 531(c) of the Federal Crop 
        Insurance Act (7 U.S.C. 1531(c)) and section 901(c) of the 
        Trade Act of 1974 (19 U.S.C. 2497(c)) as a permanent disaster 
        assistance program to provide livestock producers with payments 
        of 75 percent of the fair market value for livestock losses as 
        a result of adverse weather such as floods, blizzards, and 
        extreme heat;
            (3) on July 13, 2009, the Secretary of Agriculture 
        promulgated rules for the livestock indemnity program that 
        separated non adult beef animals into weight ranges of ``less 
        than 400 pounds'' and ``400 pounds and more''; and
            (4) the ``400 pounds and more'' range would fall well short 
        of covering 75 percent market value payment for livestock in 
        these higher ranges that are close to market weight.
    (b) It is the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of 
Agriculture--
            (1) should strive to establish a methodology to calculate 
        more specific payments to offset the cost of loss for each 
        animal as was intended by Congress for calendar years 2008 
        through 2011; and
            (2) should work with groups representing affected livestock 
        producers to come up with this more precise methodology.
    This Act may be cited as the ``Agriculture, Rural Development, Food 
and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 
2010''.
