Correction

    In the Federal Register of March 4, 2005, in FR Doc. 05-4164, on 
page 10591, in the third column, correct the notice to read:

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), approved 
a petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) that was filed on 
February 1, 2005, by Gollott's Oil Dock and Icehouse, Inc., Biloxi, 
Mississippi. The certification date is March 14, 2005. Beginning on 
this date, shrimpers who land their catch in Mississippi will be 
eligible to apply for fiscal year 2005 benefits during an 
application period ending June 13, 2005.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that increased imports of farmed shrimp contributed 
importantly to a decline in the landed prices of shrimp in Mississippi 
by 30.4 percent during January 2003 through December 2003, when 
compared with the previous 5-year average.
    Eligible producers must apply to the Farm Service Agency for 
benefits. After submitting completed applications, producers shall 
receive technical assistance provided by the Extension Service at no 
cost and may receive an adjustment assistance payment, if certain 
program criteria are satisfied. Applicants must obtain the technical 
assistance from the Extension Service by September 12, 2005, in order 
to be eligible for financial payments.
    Producers of raw agricultural commodities wishing to learn more 
about TAA and how they may apply should contact the Department of 
Agriculture at the addresses provided below for General Information.
    Producers Certified as Eligible for TAA, Contact: Farm Service 
Agency service centers in Mississippi.

    Dated: March 10, 2005.
