Beef Promotion and Research Board and State Beef Council 
Addresses

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: This document updates a Notice published in the Federal 
Register in 1997. This updated Notice provides the current addresses of 
the Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and Research Board (Board) and the 
current addresses of the 45 Qualified State Beef Councils (QSBCs) which 
are authorized under the Beef Promotion and Research Order (Order) to 
receive assessments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ralph L. Tapp, Chief, Marketing 
Programs Branch, 202/720-1115.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to the Beef Promotion and Research 
Act of 1985 (Act) (7 U.S.C. 2901 et seq.), the Order was published in 
the July 18, 1986, Federal Register (51 FR 26132). Regulations 
implementing the Order were published in the October 1, 1986, issue of 
the Federal Register (51 FR 35196).
    The Order and the Regulations provide that, beginning October 1, 
1986, cattle sold in the United States are subject to an assessment of 
$1 per head. Persons who collect assessments from producers under the 
Order and Regulations are required to remit those assessments to the 
QSBC in the State where they reside or to the Board if there is no QSBC 
located in their State. Imported cattle, beef, and beef products are 
also subject to equivalent assessments; these are paid through the U.S. 
Customs Service.
    This Notice provides the current addresses of the Board and 45 
QSBCs. A prior notice was published in the Federal Register on 
Thursday, September 25, 1997 (62 FR 50282). This notice updates the 
addresses, as necessary. QSBCs have different addresses for different 
purposes. Accordingly, this notice includes two columns for such 
addresses; one for inquiries and general business and one for remitting 
assessments and accompanying reports. For inquiries and general 
business, the address of the Board is: Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and 
Research Board; 5420 South Quebec Street (80111); P.O. Box 3316; 
Englewood, Colorado 80155. For remitting assessments and accompanying 
reports, the address of the Board is Cattlemen's Beef Promotion and 
Research Board; P.O. Box 803834; Kansas City, Missouri 64180-3834.
