Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today 
terminated a petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) that was 
filed by the Wild Blueberry Commission of Maine and initially certified 
on November 6, 2003. Wild blueberry producers will not be eligible for 
TAA benefits in fiscal year 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that domestic producer prices did not decline at least 20 
percent during the July 2003-June 2004 marketing year, when compared to 
average prices during the 5-year base period ending June 2002, a 
condition required for re-certifying the petition for TAA.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jean-Louis Pajot, Coordinator, Trade 
Adjustment Assistance for Farmers, FAS, USDA, (202) 720-2916, e-mail: 
[email protected].

    Dated: September 23, 2004.

Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
