Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today 
terminated the certification of a petition for trade adjustment 
assistance (TAA) that was by a group of Concord juice grape producers 
in New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio 
Concord juice grape producers are no longer eligible for TAA benefits 
in fiscal year 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that U.S. imports of grape juice & must, unfermented, not 
concentrated, in 2004/05 declined 39 percent compared to the base year 
2003/04. Therefore, imports were no longer a contributing factor for 
program eligibility--a requirement for TAA program eligibility and 
therefore insufficient grounds to re-certify this petition.

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

    Dated: March 9, 2006.
Elen Terpstra,
Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
