Dairy Product Mandatory Reporting 

AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, 

USDA. 

ACTION: Proposed rule with request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Mandatory Price 

Reporting Act of 2010 amended section 

273(d) of the Agricultural Marketing Act 

of 1946 (the Act), requiring the 

Secretary of Agriculture (Secretary) to 

establish an electronic reporting system 

for certain manufacturers of dairy 

products to report sales information for 

a mandatory dairy product reporting 

program. The amendment further stated 

that the Secretary shall publish the 

information obtained for the preceding 

week not later than 3 p.m. Eastern Time 

on Wednesday of each week. 

This proposed rule offers procedures 

for the Agricultural Marketing Service 

(AMS) to implement the amendment to 

section 273(d) the Act and announces 

the intention of AMS to request 

approval by the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) of associated 

information collection requirements. 

This proposed rule requests comments 

concerning changes proposed in this 

rule.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

proposed rule is issued pursuant to the 

Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 [7 

U.S.C. 1621 et seq.], as amended 

November 22, 2000, by Public Law 106– 

532, 114 Stat. 2541; May 13, 2002, by 

Public Law 107–171, 116 Stat. 207; and 

September 27, 2010, by Public Law 111– 

239, 124 Stat. 2502. 

Background: The Dairy Product 

Mandatory Reporting Program was 

established on August 2, 2007, on an 

interim final basis (72 FR 36341). A 

final rule (73 FR 34175) became 

effective June 22, 2008. The National 

Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) 

currently collects information for the 

program, and AMS provides verification 

and enforcement functions for the 

program. NASS publishes sales 

information for cheddar cheese, butter, 

dry whey, and nonfat dry milk (NFDM) 

on a weekly basis. NASS began 

publishing cheddar cheese sales 

information in 1997 and began 

publishing butter, NFDM, and dry whey 

sales information in 1998. Information 

was collected on a voluntary basis 

before the Dairy Product Mandatory 

Reporting Program became effective. 

Any manufacturer that processes and 

markets less than 1 million pounds of 

the applicable dairy products per 

calendar year is exempt from these 

reporting requirements. 

AMS is responsible for verifying the 

sales information submitted by 

reporting entities to NASS. AMS 

currently visits larger entities that 

account for 80 percent of the yearly 

reported product volume of each 

specified dairy product at least once 

annually. AMS visits one-half of entities 

that account for the remaining 20 

percent each year, visiting each such 

entity at least once every other year. 

During each visit, AMS reviews 

applicable sales transactions records for 

at least the 4 most recent weeks. In some 

cases, AMS may review sales records for 

periods of up to 2 years. AMS verifies 

that sales transactions match the 

information reported to NASS and that 

there are no applicable sales 

transactions not reported to NASS. 

Noncompliance, appeals, and 

enforcement procedures are 

administered by AMS. 

The Mandatory Price Reporting Act of 

2010 (Pub. L. 111–239, Sept. 27, 2010) 

amended section 273(d) of the Act (7 

U.S.C. 1637b) to require that the 

Secretary establish an electronic 

reporting system for manufacturers of 

dairy products to report certain market 

information for the mandatory dairy 

product reporting program. The 

amendment further stated that the 

Secretary shall publish the information 

obtained under this section for the 

preceding week not later than 3 p.m. 

Eastern Time on Wednesday of each 

week. This proposed rule includes 

regulatory changes for implementing 

these provisions and transferring 

applicable data collection 

responsibilities to AMS. This proposed 

rule announces the intention of AMS to 

request approval of associated 

information collection requirements by 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). Comments are requested 

concerning changes proposed in this 

rule. 

Executive Orders 12866 

This proposed rule has been 

determined to not be significant for 

purposes of Executive Orders 12866 and 

therefore has not been reviewed by the 

Office of Management and Budget with 

respect to this Executive Order. 

Executive Order 12988 Civil Justice 

Reform 

This proposed rule has been reviewed 

under Executive Order 12988, Civil 

Justice Reform. The amendments 

contained in this proposed rule are not 

intended to have a retroactive effect. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

Pursuant to requirements set forth in 

the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA) (5 

U.S.C. 601–612), AMS has considered 

the economic impact of this proposed 

rule on small entities and has 

determined that this proposed rule 

would not have a significant economic 

impact on a substantial number of small 

entities. The purpose of the RFA is to 

fit regulatory actions to the scale of 

businesses subject to such actions in 

order that small businesses will not be 

unduly or disproportionately burdened. 

Small businesses in the dairy product 

manufacturing 1 industry have been 

defined by the Small Business 

Administration (SBA) as those 

processors employing not more than 500 

employees. For purposes of determining 

a processor’s size, if the plant is part of 

a larger company operating multiple 

plants that collectively exceed the 500- 

employee limit, the plant will be 

considered a large business even if the 

local plant has fewer than 500 

employees. According to U.S. Census 

Bureau Statistics of U.S. Businesses, 

there were 1,583 dairy manufacturing 

establishments in the United States in 

2008. Of these businesses, 1,039 

WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with PROPOSALS

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2011 / Proposed Rules 34005 

establishments had fewer than 500 

employees, and 544 establishments had 

greater than 500 employees (http:// 

www.census.gov/econ/susb/, U.S. 

Census Bureau, 2008 County Business 

Patterns). 

The dairy manufacturing 

establishments included in U.S. Census 

Bureau statistics include manufacturers 

of all types of dairy products. The 

number of plants that produce butter, 

cheese, NFDM, and dry whey with the 

precise specifications included in the 

mandatory reporting requirements is 

much lower than this. Furthermore, 

those manufacturers that process and 

market less than 1 million pounds of the 

applicable dairy products annually are 

exempt from reporting sales data. 

Currently, NASS conducts an annual 

validation survey that serves to 

determine which plants are required to 

report. In 2010, this survey included 

182 plants. Based upon the survey, there 

were 88 dairy product plants that were 

subject to mandatory reporting of sales 

data. There were 52 reporting entities 

that reported data for one or more 

plants. The annual cost for plants to 

complete this survey is estimated at 

approximately $9 per plant. AMS 

intends to continue to conduct the 

survey. Based upon company profile 

information available on the Internet, 

AMS estimates that almost half of the 

reporting entities are considered small 

businesses under the criteria established 

by the SBA. 

AMS estimates that the annual cost 

per plant for reporting sales information 

for products included in the surveys is 

approximately $511. The majority of 

reporting entities report data to NASS 

through a secure web-based application. 

Less than three plants regularly fax their 

information, and it is believed that these 

plants do have Internet access. 

Therefore, there would be no significant 

start-up costs anticipated for the 

reporting entities as a result of 

implementing this rule as proposed. 

Under the current Dairy Product 

Mandatory Reporting Program, dairy 

manufacturers are required to maintain 

records for verification purposes for a 2- 

year period. This proposed rule makes 

no changes to this requirement. These 

records are maintained as part of the 

normal course of business. Thus, there 

is no additional burden or cost 

associated with the maintenance of 

these records. Therefore, in total, this 

proposed rule will not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities. 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

The Act requires persons engaged in 

manufacturing dairy products to 

provide to USDA certain information 

including the price, quantity, and 

moisture content, where applicable, of 

dairy products sold by the 

manufacturer. In accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

chapter 35), AMS announces its 

intention to request an approval of 

information collection and 

recordkeeping pursuant to these 

requirements. 

Title: Dairy Products Mandatory Sales 

Reporting Program. 

OMB Number: 0581–NEW. 

Expiration Date of Approval: 3 years 

from date of OMB approval. 

Type of Request: New information 

collection. 

Abstract: The information collection 

requirements in the request are essential 

to carry out the intent of the 

Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 as 

amended (the Act). 

The Act requires each manufacturer to 

report to the Secretary information 

concerning the price, quantity, and 

moisture content (where applicable) of 

dairy products sold by the 

manufacturer. Dairy products reported 

include cheddar cheese, butter, dry 

whey, and NFDM. Dairy manufacturers 

report information for these products if 

the products meet certain product 

specifications. 

The collection and reporting of sales 

information, as required by the Act, 

have been the responsibility of NASS. 

NASS currently collects the information 

as part of the information collection 

package OMB 0535–0020. NASS allows 

manufacturers to submit information 

through a secure web-based application, 

by e-mail, or by fax. Manufacturers are 

required to submit information to NASS 

by 12 noon on Wednesday on all 

applicable products during the 7 days 

ending 12 midnight of the previous 

Saturday, local time of the plant or 

storage facility where the sales are 

made. NASS compiles and aggregates 

the information reported by the 

reporting entities and publishes the 

information each Friday morning. If a 

Federal holiday falls on a Tuesday or 

Wednesday, NASS contacts 

manufacturers via e-mail or phone 

concerning the applicable report 

deadline. 

Manufacturers that process and 

market less than 1 million pounds of 

applicable dairy products annually are 

exempt from reporting requirements. 

Each year, dairy manufacturers 

complete an Annual Validation 

Worksheet for NASS to determine 

which dairy manufacturers are exempt 

and to ascertain if valid information is 

being supplied. NASS currently collects 

the information as part of the 

information collection package OMB 

0535–0020. 

The Mandatory Price Reporting Act of 

2010 amended subsection 273(d) of the 

Act, requiring the Secretary to establish 

an electronic reporting system to collect 

the required information and to publish, 

not later than 3 p.m. Eastern Time on 

Wednesday of each week, a report 

containing the preceding week’s 

information. The information collection 

and reporting requirements have been 

the responsibility of NASS. Under this 

proposed rule AMS would assume this 

responsibility. NASS would no longer 

collect price, quantity, or moisture 

content (where applicable) information 

for cheddar cheese, butter, NFDM, or 

dry whey, and NASS would no longer 

collect the associated annual validation 

information. The forms associated with 

this data collection would be removed 

from OMB 0535–0020 and would be 

included in an AMS collection package, 

OMB 0581–NEW. 

The proposed provisions have been 

reviewed, and every effort has been 

made to minimize any unnecessary 

recordkeeping costs or requirements. 

The proposed electronic submission 

forms would require the minimum 

information necessary to effectively 

carry out the requirements of the 

program, and their use is necessary to 

fulfill the intent of the Act. It is 

expected that no outside technical 

expertise will be needed. The forms are 

simple, easy to understand, and place as 

small a burden as possible on 

respondents. 

To assist the industry in achieving 

compliance, educational and outreach 

sessions will be held prior to 

implementation. AMS will assist 

reporting entities in understanding 

requirements for submitting data 

through electronic means specified by 

AMS. In addition, AMS plans to beta 

test the electronic-submission 

technology before implementation, and 

all entities required to report will be 

encouraged to participate in the betatesting program. Any feedback received 

during this outreach and testing period 

will be used to correct technical 

problems. 

Collecting the information will 

coincide with normal industry business 

practices. The timing and frequency of 

collecting information are intended to 

meet the needs of the program while 

minimizing the amount of work 

necessary to submit the required 

reports. The information to be collected 

by AMS, as proposed in this rule, is 

identical to the information currently 

collected by NASS. NASS currently 

allows manufacturers to submit 

information through a secure web-based 

WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with PROPOSALS

34006 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2011 / Proposed Rules 

application, by e-mail, or by fax. This 

proposed rule will require 

manufacturers to submit information 

only by electronic means specified by 

AMS. AMS would specify that each 

manufacturer submit the information 

using a secure Internet connection that 

includes a user name and password. 

The requirement that reporting entities 

submit information electronically is in 

accordance with the Act. 

The frequency of data collection will 

not change. Reporting entities are now 

required to report information to NASS 

by 12 noon on Wednesday. This 

proposed rule would require reporting 

entities to report the same information 

to AMS by 12 noon local time of the 

reporting entities on Tuesday. This 

change is necessary to allow AMS 

personnel time to review and compile 

data and to publish the information by 

3 p.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday as 

required by the Act. If a Federal holiday 

falls on Monday through Wednesday of 

a particular week, the due date for 

report submission may be adjusted. 

Prior to the beginning of each calendar 

year, this rule proposes that AMS shall 

inform reporting entities of the times 

and dates that reports are due.

Request for Public Comment Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

Comments are invited on: 

(a) Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

(c) ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(d) ways to minimize the burden of 

the collection of information on those 

who are to respond. 

All responses to this notice will 

become a matter of public record and be 

summarized in the request for OMB 

approval. 

Except as otherwise directed by the 

Secretary of Agriculture or the U.S. 

Attorney General for enforcement 

purposes, no officer, employee, or agent 

of the United States shall provide the 

public any information, statistics, or 

documents obtained from or submitted 

by any person under the Act that does 

not ensure preservation of 

confidentiality regarding the identity of 

persons, including parties to contracts 

and proprietary business information. 

All report forms include a statement 

that individual reports are kept 

confidential. 

With respect to the application of the 

Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) to 

the maintenance of records required by 

the Act, the Dairy Products Sales survey 

population consists of dairy product 

manufacturers. Data collected by this 

survey relates to manufacturers’ 

operations and transactions and not to 

those of individuals. Records 

maintained at business sites for 

verification of information that would 

be reported to AMS include contracts, 

agreements, receipts and other materials 

related to sales of specific dairy 

products. No records about individuals 

would be maintained by AMS for this 

survey, and AMS believes that none 

would be part of these maintained 

business papers. 

Request for Public Comment on 

Proposals To Change to 7 CFR Part 

1170 

This rule proposes that AMS be 

responsible for collection of sales data 

and reporting; that reporting entities be 

required to submit, by an electronic 

means specified by AMS, a report to 

AMS by Tuesday, 12 noon local time of 

reporting entities (unless adjusted 

because of a Federal holiday and 

communicated to dairy product 

manufacturers by AMS before the 

beginning of the calendar year), of all 

WReier-Aviles on DSKGBLS3C1PROD with PROPOSALS

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 112 / Friday, June 10, 2011 / Proposed Rules 34007 

products sold as specified in § 1170.8 

during the 7 days ending 12 midnight of 

the previous Saturday, local time of the 

plant or storage facility where the sales 

are made; and that not later than 3 p.m. 

Eastern Time on Wednesday of each 

week (unless adjusted because of a 

Federal holiday and publicly 

announced by AMS before the 

beginning of the calendar year), AMS 

shall publish aggregated information 

obtained from manufacturers or other 

persons of all products sold as specified 

in § 1170.8. Conforming changes are 

proposed where necessary since data 

collection and publication 

responsibilities would be transferred 

from NASS to AMS. AMS specifically 

requests comments concerning changes 

proposed in this rule. 

AMS will review all timely comments 

received and will consider these 

comments in developing a final rule.

Stat. 2501. 

3. Revise § 1170.7 to read as follows: 

§ 1170.7 Reporting requirements. 

(a) All dairy product manufacturers, 

with the exception of those who are 

exempt as described in § 1170.9, shall 

submit a report weekly to the 

Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) 

by Tuesday, 12 noon local time of 

reporting entities, on all products sold 

as specified in § 1170.8 during the 7 

days ending 12 midnight of the previous 

Saturday, local time of the plant or 

storage facility where the sales are 

made. If a Federal holiday falls on 

Monday through Wednesday of a 

particular week, the due date for report 

submission may be adjusted. Prior to the 

beginning of each calendar year, AMS 

shall release, to manufacturers that are 

required to report, the times and dates 

that reports are due. The report is to be 

submitted by electronic means specified 

by AMS and shall indicate the name, 

address, plant location(s), quantities 

sold, total sales dollars or dollars per 

pound for the applicable products, and 

the moisture content where applicable. 

Each sale shall be reported for the time 

period when the transaction is 

completed, i.e. the product is ‘‘shipped 

out’’ and title transfer occurs. Each sale 

shall be reported either f.o.b. plant if the 

product is ‘‘shipped out’’ from the plant 

or f.o.b. storage facility location if the 

product is ‘‘shipped out’’ from a storage 

facility. In calculating the total dollars 

received or dollars per pound, the 

reporting entity shall neither add 

transportation charges incurred at the 

time the product is ‘‘shipped out’’ or 

after the product is ‘‘shipped out’’ nor 

deduct transportation charges incurred 

before the product is ‘‘shipped out.’’ In 

calculating the total dollars received or 

dollars per pound, the reporting entity 

shall not deduct brokerage fees or 

clearing charges paid by the 

manufacturer. 

(b) Manufacturers or other persons 

storing dairy products are required to 

report, on a monthly basis, stocks of 

dairy products (as defined in § 1170.4) 

on hand, on the appropriate forms 

supplied by the National Agricultural 

Statistic Service. The report shall 

indicate the name, address, and stocks 

on hand at the end of the month for 

each storage location.
