I. General

A. U.S. Standards

Dry, edible beans, peas and lentils (product/commodity) produced under this 

Commodity Specification must meet the requirements specified in the applicable 

United States Standards for Beans, Whole Dry Peas, Split Peas and Lentils (U.S. 

Standards) effective on the date of the Solicitation/Invitation for Bid (IFB). The 

U.S. Standards are published separately and are incorporated herein and made a part 

of this Commodity Specification. 

B. Exceptions to U.S. Standards

Exceptions to the U.S. Standards for the Department of Agriculture (USDA) purchases 

are found in Section II, Commodity Specifications, of this document. Additional 

exceptions may be specified in the applicable Solicitation/IFB. Any exceptions contained 

in the applicable Solicitations/IFB shall have precedence over the requirements contained 

herein, for that Solicitation/IFB only. 

C. Product Origin

1. Commodities delivered pursuant to this Commodity Specification shall have 

originated from crops that have been 100% grown, processed, and packed in the 

United States, its territories or possessions, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, or the 

Trust Territories of the Pacific Islands, (hereinafter referred to as the United States). 

See Section I., F. of the Master Solicitation.

2. If the contractor handles any commodity originating from sources other than the 

United States, the contractor must have a written plan to segregate the commodity. 

This segregation plan will include an identification and record system for all 

commodities to ensure they are completely segregated and cannot be used to fulfill 

purchase orders awarded by USDA. Such segregation plan must be made available to 

representatives of the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS). 

3. The contractor must maintain positive written documentation records evidencing 100 

percent domestic origin, to the grower level. Contractors must also ensure that the 

documentation provided by any subcontractors demonstrates the same level of 

traceability. The burden of proof of compliance is on the contractor. 

4. Documentation may include load or warehouse storage receipts for raw product (i.e., 

bin tags), product blend (formulation) records, product coding explanations, finished 

product warehousing records, shipping or payment records, or other documentation or 

evidence that clearly establishes the product's domestic origin. 

5. Such records must be available for review by the Government in accordance with

FAR 52.214-26. In the event of an audit, AMS auditors will examine documents to 

verify compliance.

Effective Date: June 2014 Page 4 of 18

 

6. Self-certifications by contractors and subcontractors will not be accepted.

7. Failure to observe this requirement may lead to suspension or debarment, purchase 

order termination, and penalties at Title 18, Section 1001 of the US Code concerning 

falsification of information.

D. Kosher Products 

Occasionally, USDA solicits offers to sell KOSHER products. Such products are 

identified on the solicitation with the letter “K” incorporated into the WBSCM material 

descriptions. Vendors must comply with the applicable dietary (KOSHER) laws as 

established by the “613 COUNCIL OF KASHRUTH” in the production of these 

commodity products. Vendors must not bid on these purchase units unless they can be 

properly certified. 

Vendors receiving purchase order items identified as “KOSHER” must contact the Board 

of Jewish Education of Greater New York (BJENY) at telephone 646-472-5365 prior to 

manufacturing the commodity product to arrange for certification of compliance with 

applicable dietary (kosher) laws.

E. Packing Season 

All dry edible beans, peas and lentils must be from the current packing season/crop year, 

unless otherwise specified in the applicable Solicitation/IFB.

Red Kidney Beans, Dark Red Kidney Beans, Baby Lima Beans, Pink Beans, Great 

Northern Beans, Garbanzo Beans, Pea, Lentils, Split Green, and Pigeon Peas.

 NOTE: Pigeon Peas are botanically known as Cajanus Cajan from the family 

leguminosae, which are known to be grown in Puerto Rico region and the U.S. Virgin 

Islands.

G. Grade of Beans

Dry Edible Beans 

Dry, edible beans delivered to USDA shall be grade U.S. No. 1, except U.S. No. 2 for 

splits, and shall meet the specifications for the class (es) of beans listed in the

4. The required product identification and record systems, including codes, must be 

reviewed and approved by FGIS. FGIS will include the product identification codes 

on the Commodity Inspection Certificate (Form FGIS-993) that will accompany the 

product to destination.

5. The product identification code used for traceability must be placed in a visible 

location on all primary containers in such a manner that it shall not be removed.

The following applies to USDA labels and packaging requirements:

The contractor must place a unique lot code for every lot offered for inspection on all 

primary and secondary containers except plastic for balers. The contractor may use any 

type of codes desired and may place the codes anywhere on the outside of the containers.

Specific codes can only be used one time for each purchase order. Lots that are not 

uniquely marked will be treated as any other lot with marking deficiencies and rejected.

1. Primary Containers

The product must be packed in bags and/or shipping containers or balers as specified 

in the Solicitation/IFB. Containers will be of a type normally and successfully used 

in commercial channels by the industry and shall conform to the applicable carrier 

rules and regulations. The terms “two-pounds”, “twenty-five-pounds”, and “one

hundred-pounds” refer to a net weight of two pounds, twenty-five pounds, and one 

hundred pounds, respectively.

2. Secondary Container (case) Markings

Shipping Containers and Balers for Two-Pound Packages 

Product in two-pound packages shall be packed in new, corrugated fiberboard 

shipping containers, multiwall paper balers, or plastic balers. Corrugated fiberboard 

shipping containers may be sealed by plastic tape in lieu of glue. The tape must be of 

sufficient width and strength that is used commercially to be acceptable by common 

carriers for safe transportation to destinations. The tape must extend down the sides 

or ends at least two inches without interfering with the case markings. A tape of seethrough type may be used, and may also be used on the plastic balers. A gummed 

paper tape may be used to close the paper balers; however, the paper tape will not 

overlap any of the printing on the balers.

Cases must be marked in such a manner that they contain all of the statements or 

information contained in Exhibit 2, “Required markings for Shipping Containers 

or Balers.” Case markings must be clearly marked and easily read.

Cases may be marked by printing or stenciling or by an alternative, preprinted, 

self-adhesive label or stickers. Self-adhesive label or stickers must be affixed to 

the case in such a manner that they cannot be removed intact.

Cases must have the recycling statement shown in Exhibit 6, “Please Recycle” 

Symbol and Statement or Exhibit 7 “Corrugated Recycles” Symbol and 

Statement.

No markings other than those permitted under this section must appear on the 

shipping containers, balers, or bags unless approved by USDA.

hardwood or its equivalent in new softwood. Broken or damaged pallets are 

unacceptable. If pallet exchange is desired, the contractor shall arrange for pallet 

exchange with consignees. USDA is in no way responsible for arrangement of pallet 

exchange.

2. Unitization

Each delivery unit of bean products must be unitized. Shipping cases must be stacked 

and secured from top to bottom, so that each container and layer of containers 

becomes an integral part of the pallet. Either stretch wrapping with plastic film or 

“lock ‘n pop” is acceptable. The palletized product must be loaded in the conveyance 

in such a way that will prevent shifting and damage to the containers of product. 

K. Shipment and Delivery

1. Quantity Tolerance

Contractor will be allowed a tolerance on the final delivery of plus or minus 50 cases 

of each product, from each shipping point named in the purchase order.

III. Inspection and Checkloading

A. Requirements

FGIS must perform the inspection and checkloading required by section X of the Master 

Solicitation. Inspection of bean products must be performed not more than 90 days prior 

to shipment. Whether each lot offered meets the product and container requirements of 

the purchase order must be determined on the basis of representative sample units. 

Representative sample units will be graded according to the Regulations Governing 

Inspection and Certification of Dry Edible Beans, Peas and Lentils and the United States 

Standards for Condition of Food Containers (7 C.F.R. part 42.140), effective on the date 

of the Solicitation/IFB.

B. Certification

Subject to (See section X of the Master Solicitation) the acceptability of the quality, 

weight, packaging, and checkloading of the product must be evidenced by certificates 

issued by FGIS. No product shall be shipped unless FGIS informs the contractor that a

designated lot is acceptable. Notice by FGIS that a designated lot scheduled for shipment 

does not meet requirements of the purchase order shall constitute rejection of such lot.

C. Procedures

The contractor must give the FGIS at least 7 days advance notice when scheduling 

inspection service. 

Contractors are encouraged to submit requests for inspection and weighing services in 

writing (FGIS-907) with verifiable receipt notice, such as fax log, to alleviate possible 

miscommunication.

IV. Failure to Meet Specifications

Any lot that fails applicable specifications prescribed herein will be rejected as not

acceptable for delivery. If any lot of dry, edible beans, peas and lentils fail to meet the 

product or packaging requirement, the contractor may request in writing that USDA 

accept delivery of the lot. USDA may, at its option, accept delivery, provided that the 

purchase price is the purchase order price less a discount to be determined by the 

Contracting Officer.
