Feed Grain Donations; Flathead Indian Reservation of Montana

AGENCY: Commodity Credit Corporation, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Executive Vice President, Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) 
is announcing that the Flathead Indian Reservation of Montana is an 
acute distress area and that CCC-owned feed grain will be donated to 
needy livestock owners on the reservation.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Newcomer, Consolidated Farm 
Service Agency, P.O. Box 2415, Washington, DC 20013-2415, 202-720-6157.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the authority set forth in 
section 407 of the Agricultural Act of 1949, as amended (7 U.S.C. 
1427), and Executive Order 11336, notice is being given that it is 
determined that:
    1. The chronic economic distress of the needy members of the 
Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes located on the Flathead Indian 
Reservation of Montana has been materially increased and become acute 
because of severe drought during the 1994 growing season and ensuing 
wild fires, thereby creating a serious shortage of feed and causing 
increased economic distress. This reservation is utilized by members of 
the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes for grazing purposes.
    2. The use of feed grain or products thereof made available by CCC 
for livestock feed for such needy members on the Flathead Indian 
Reservation will not displace or interfere with normal marketing of 
agricultural commodities.
    3. Based on the above determinations, the Flathead Indian 
Reservation of Montana is declared an acute distress area and the 
donation of feed grain owned by the CCC is authorized to livestock 
owners who are determined by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, United 
States Department of the Interior, to be needy members of the 
Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes utilizing such lands. These 
donations by the CCC may commence upon November 15, 1994, and shall be 
made available through April 30, 1995, or such other date as may be 
stated in a notice issued by the Executive Vice President, CCC.

    Signed at Washington, DC, on December 23, 1994.
Bruce R. Weber
Acting Executive Vice President, Commodity Credit Corporation.
