Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration


Amendment to Certification of Nebraska's Central Filing System

AGENCY: Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In response to a request from Nebraska's Deputy Secretary of 
State we are approving the addition of a farm product to Nebraska's 
certified central filing system for notification of liens on farm 
products.

EFFECTIVE DATE: March 4, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards 
Administration (GIPSA) administers the Clear Title program for the 
Secretary of Agriculture. The Clear Title program is authorized by 
section 1324 of the Food Security Act of 1985 and requires that States 
implementing central filing system for notification of liens on farm 
products must have such systems certified by the Secretary of 
Agriculture.
    A listing of the states with certified central filing systems is 
available through the Internet on the GIPSA Web site (http://www.usda.gov/gipsa/). Listings of the specified farm products covered 
by a State's central filing system are also available through the GIPSA 
Web site.
    We originally certified the central filing system for Nebraska on 
December 19, 1986. On October 4, 2004, Debbie Pester, Nebraska's Deputy 
Secretary of State, requested the certification be amended to add the 
following farm product produced in Nebraska:

Embryos/Genetic Products

    This addition of embryos and genetic products to Nebraska's central 
filing system is limited to embryos or genetic products of specified 
farm products which have previously been approved under Nebraska's 
central filing system and which are added by subsequent certification 
amendment. Farm products previously approved under Nebraska's central 
filing system are listed in the following table.
