Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), denied a 
petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) for seed potatoes that 
was filed on January 13, 2005, by the Spokane Hutterian Brethren, 
Reardan, Washington.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that imports for the February-May 2004 marketing year 
declined by 20 percent from the same period in 2003. Since imports 
declined during the marketing year, the petition did not meet the 
increasing imports requirement, a condition required for certifying a 
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: February 16, 2005.
A. Ellen Terpstra,
Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
