Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers

AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

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

    On March 22, 2007, the Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service 
(FAS), denied a petition for trade adjustment assistance (TAA) for 
avocados that was filed on February 17, 2007, by the California Avocado 
Commission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Upon investigation, the Administrator 
determined that imports from Mexico for the November 1, 2005, through 
October 31, 2006, marketing year declined by 2 percent from the same 
period in 2005/2006. 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: March 23, 2007.

Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service.
