[Docket No. DA-97-12]


Milk in the New England and Other Marketing Areas; Order Amending 
the Orders; Correction

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service published in the Federal 
Register on September 1, 1999, (64 FR 47898) a final rule which 
consolidated 31 Federal milk marketing orders into 11 orders. This 
document corrects an error in section 73 of 7 of those orders by 
changing the term ``pool plant operator'' to ``handler.'' The remaining 
4 orders contain the correct language.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This correction is effective May 22, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Nicholas Memoli, Marketing Specialist, 
Order Formulation Branch, USDA/AMS/Dairy Programs, Room 2971, South 
Building, P.O. Box 96456, Washington, DC 20090-6456, (202) 690-1932, e-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background and Need for Correction

    In the final rule (DA-97-12) issued August 23, 1999, and published 
in the Federal Register on September 1, 1999 (64 FR 47898), an error in 
Section 73(a) and (b) of Parts 1001, 1005, 1006, and 1007, and Section 
73(b) of Parts 1126, 1131, and 1135 was inadvertently made. 
Specifically, the term ``handler'' was changed to ``pool plant 
operator.'' The correct term is used in the 4 remaining orders (Parts 
1030, 1032, 1033 and 1124) and is only different in the 7 orders 
because of an oversight in drafting the amendments to the orders. 
Therefore, the applicable provisions of the 7 orders need to be 
corrected.
