Cotton Board Rules and Regulations: Adjusting Supplemental 
Assessment on Imports, (2003 Amendments)

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.

ACTION: Final rule.

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

SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is amending the 
Cotton Board Rules and Regulations by lowering the value assigned to 
imported cotton for the purpose of calculating supplemental assessments 
collected for use by the Cotton Research and Promotion Program. An 
adjustment is required on an annual basis to ensure that the 
assessments collected on imported cotton and the cotton content of 
imported products remain similar to those paid on domestically produced 
cotton.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 23, 2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Executive Order 12866

    The Office of Management and Budget has waived the review process 
required by Executive Order 12866 for this action.

Executive Order 12988

    This rule has been reviewed under Executive Order 12988, Civil 
Justice Reform. It is not intended to have retroactive effect. This 
rule would not preempt any state or local laws, regulations, or 
policies, unless they present an irreconcilable conflict with this 
rule.
    The Cotton Research and Promotion Act provides that administrative 
proceedings must be exhausted before parties may file suit in court. 
Under section 12 of the Act, any person subject to an order may file 
with the Secretary a petition stating that the order, any provision of 
the plan, or any obligation imposed in connection with the order is not 
in accordance with law and requesting a modification of the order or to 
be exempted therefrom. Such person is afforded the opportunity for a 
hearing

[[Page 27899]]

on the petition. After the hearing, the Secretary would rule on the 
petition. The Act provides that the District Court of the United States 
in any district in which the person is an inhabitant, or has his 
principal place of business, has jurisdiction to review the Secretary's 
ruling, provided a complaint is filed within 20 days from the date of 
the entry of ruling.

Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Pursuant to requirements set forth in the Regulatory Flexibility 
Act (RFA) (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) AMS has considered the economic impact 
of this action on small entities and has determined that its 
implementation will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small businesses.
    There are an estimated 10,000 importers who are presently subject 
to rules and regulations issued pursuant to the Cotton Research and 
Promotion Order. This rule would affect importers of cotton and cotton-
containing products. The majority of these importers are small 
businesses under the criteria established by the Small Business 
Administration. This rule would lower the assessments paid by the 
importers under the Cotton Research and Promotion Order. Even though 
the assessment would be lowered, the decrease is small and will not 
significantly affect small businesses. The current assessment on 
imported cotton is $0.00862 per kilogram of imported cotton. The new 
assessment is $0.008267, a decrease of $0.000353 or a 4.1 percent 
decrease. From January through December 2002 approximately $24 million 
was collected. Should the volume of cotton products imported into the 
U.S. remain at the same level in 2003, one could expect the decreased 
assessment to generate approximately $23 million or a 4.1 percent 
decrease from 2002.

Paperwork Reduction

    In compliance with Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
regulations (5 CFR part 1320), which implement the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the information collection 
requirements contained in the regulation to be amended have been 
previously approved by OMB and were assigned control number 0581-0093.

Background

    The Cotton Research and Promotion Act Amendments of 1990 enacted by 
Congress under Subtitle G of Title XIX of the Food, Agriculture, 
Conservation and Trade Act of 1990 on November 28, 1990, contained two 
provisions that authorized changes in the funding procedures for the 
Cotton Research and Promotion Program.
    These provisions are: (1) The assessment of imported cotton and 
cotton products; and (2) termination of the right of cotton producers 
to demand a refund of assessments.
    An amended Cotton Research and Promotion Order was approved by 
producers and importers voting in a referendum held July 17-26, 1991, 
and the amended Order was published in the Federal Register on December 
10, 1991, (56 FR 64470). A proposed rule implementing the amended Order 
was published in the Federal Register on December 17, 1991, (56 FR 
65450). Implementing rules were published on July 1 and 2, 1992, (57 FR 
29181) and (57 FR 29431), respectively.
    This rule will decrease the value assigned to imported cotton in 
the Cotton Board Rules and Regulations (7 CFR 1205.510(b)(2)). This 
value is used to calculate supplemental assessments on imported cotton 
and the cotton content of imported products. Supplemental assessments 
are the second part of a two-part assessment. The first part of the 
assessment is levied on the weight of cotton produced or imported at a 
rate of $1 per bale of cotton which is equivalent to 500 pounds or $1 
per 226.8 kilograms of cotton.
    Supplemental assessments are levied at a rate of five-tenths of one 
percent of the value of domestically produced cotton, imported cotton, 
and the cotton content of imported products. The agency has adopted the 
practice of assigning the calendar year weighted average price received 
by U.S. farmers for Upland cotton to represent the value of imported 
cotton. This is done so that the assessment on domestically produced 
cotton and the assessment on imported cotton and the cotton content of 
imported products remain similar. The source for the average price 
statistic is ``Agricultural Prices,'' a publication of the National 
Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) of the Department of 
Agriculture. Use of the weighted average price figure in the 
calculation of supplemental assessments on imported cotton and the 
cotton content of imported products yields an assessment that 
approximates assessments paid on domestically produced cotton in the 
prior calendar year.
    The current value of imported cotton as published in the Federal 
Register (67 FR 36793) on May 28, 2002, for the purpose of calculating 
supplemental assessments on imported cotton is $.8422 per kilogram. 
This number was calculated using the annual weighted average price 
received by farmers for Upland cotton during the calendar year 2001 
which was $0.382 per pound and multiplying by the conversion factor 
2.2046. Using the Average Weighted Price Received by U.S. farmers for 
Upland cotton for the calendar year 2002, which is $0.35 per pound, the 
new value of imported cotton is $0.7716 per kilogram. The amended value 
is $.0706 per kilogram less than the previous value.
    An example of the complete assessment formula and how the various 
figures are obtained is as follows:
    One bale is equal to 500 pounds.
    One kilogram equals 2.2046 pounds.
    One pound equals 0.453597 kilograms.
One Dollar per Bale Assessment Converted to Kilograms
    A 500 pound bale equals 226.8 kg. (500 x .453597).
    $1 per bale assessment equals $0.002000 per pound (1/500) or 
$0.004409 per kg. (1/226.8).
Supplemental Assessment of \5/10\ of One Percent of the Value of the 
Cotton Converted to Kilograms
    The 2002 calendar year weighted average price received by producers 
for Upland cotton is $0.35 per pound or $0.7716 per kg. (0.35 x 
2.2046).
    Five tenths of one percent of the average price in kg. equals 
$0.003858 per kg. (0.7716 x .005).
Total Assessment
    The total assessment per kilogram of raw cotton is obtained by 
adding the $1 per bale equivalent assessment of $0.004409 per kg. and 
the supplemental assessment $0.003858 per kg. which equals $0.008267 
per kg.
    The current assessment on imported cotton is $0.008620 per kilogram 
of imported cotton. The amended assessment is $0.008267, a decrease of 
$0.000353 per kilogram. This decrease reflects the decrease in the 
Average Weighted Price of Upland Cotton Received by U.S. Farmers during 
the period January through December 2002.
    Since the value of cotton is the basis of the supplemental 
assessment calculation and the figures shown in the right hand column 
of the Import Assessment Table 1205.510(b)(3) are a result of such a 
calculation, the figures in this table have been revised. These figures 
indicate the total assessment per kilogram due for each Harmonized 
Tariff Schedule (HTS) number subject to assessment.
    A proposed rule with request for comments was published in the 
Federal Register (68 FR 12310) on March 14,

[[Page 27900]]

2003. No comments were received during the period (March 14 through 
April 14, 2003).
