Commodity Credit Corporation


Feed Grain Donations; Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation of 
Montana

AGENCY: Commodity Credit Corporation, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Acting Executive Vice President, Commodity Credit 
Corporation (CCC) is announcing that the Northern Cheyenne 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 
Northern Cheyenne Tribes using the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation 
of Montana has been materially increased and become acute because of 
severe drought during the 1994 growing season and the ensuing Baby Dean 
fire, thereby severely affecting livestock feed production and causing 
increased economic distress. This reservation is utilized by members of 
the Northern Cheyenne Tribes for grazing purposes.
    2. The use of feed grain or products thereof made available by CCC 
for livestock feed for such needy members of the Northern Cheyenne 
Tribes using the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation will not displace 
or interfere with normal marketing of agricultural commodities.
    3. Based on the above determinations, the Northern Cheyenne 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 Northern 
Cheyenne Tribes utilizing such lands. These donations by the CCC may 
commence upon December 8, 1994, and shall be made available through 
April 30, 1995, or such other date as may be stated in a notice issued 
by the Acting Executive Vice President, CCC.

    Signed at Washington, DC, on January 19, 1995.
Bruce R. Weber,
Acting Executive Vice President Commodity Credit Corporation
