AREA III APPLICATION FOR CERTIFICATE OF PRIVILEGE FOR SPECIAL PURPOSE SHIPMENT REPORTS

It is understood and agreed to by me, the undersigned applicant, that all potatoes granted a Certificate of Privilege for 

Special Purpose Shipments by virtue of this application and corresponding Special Purpose Shipment Reports must be 

used for the purpose stated in this application and any deviation or infringement of this privilege which shall become 

known to me will be reported to the Area III Colorado Potato Administrative Committee (Committee) promptly. Further, 

that I will not knowingly sell or cause to be sold potatoes which have been granted a Certificate of Privilege and are to be 

used in violation of said Certificate. I am aware that when Special Purpose Shipment Reports are used for OTHER THAN 

POTATOES FOR CHIPPING, the RECEIVER must return a copy of the report to the Committee within 15 days.

The Certificate of Privilege/Special Purpose Shipment Reports granted subject to this Application shall be numbered 

consecutively. All or any part of said Reports not duly executed may be recalled or revoked at the discretion of the 

Committee and when violation of said application and reports are in evidence. It is agreed that the Committee will be 

notified of any shipments rejected by receivers of processed potatoes.

False certification, knowing it to be false, is a violation of title 18, section 1001, of the United States Code, among other 

statures, which provide for a fine, imprisonment, or both.
