Mushroom Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Order

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment.

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

SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) published a final 
rule in the Federal Register on July 20, 1992, on the Mushroom 
Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Order (Order) referendum 
procedures. This rule established procedures for the conduct of a 
referendum to determine if producers and importers favored 
implementation of the Order. The procedures also apply to any 
subsequent referenda to amend, continue, or terminate the Order. As 
written, language to amend, suspend, or terminate the program was 
inadvertently omitted from the procedures. This document corrects that 
omission.
