Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Action 

Plan 1 was developed after a 2012 

workshop. The Action Plan informed 

USDA’s commitments in the first 

National Action Plan for Combating 

Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria.2 Over the 

last decade, the USDA has learned more 

about AMR and discovered challenges

and agricultural science on AMR across 

the One Health interfaces of food safety, 

animal and human health, and the 

environment. 

The USDA will be holding a public 

meeting to share with the public what 

has been learned and the challenges for

wildlife. The Department is interested 

in feedback from the public as to what 

has been learned in the past decade and

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE 

Farm Service Agency 

[Docket ID FSA–2022–0006] 

Notice of Funds Availability (NOFA) for 

the Commodity Container Assistance 

Program 

AGENCY: Farm Service Agency, 

Department of Agriculture (USDA). 

ACTION: Notification of funds 

availability. 

SUMMARY: The Farm Service Agency 

(FSA) is announcing the availability of 

funding for the Commodity Container 

Assistance Program (CCAP) in response 

to temporary market disruptions that 

have created logistical challenges 

associated with all aspects of the 

availability and flow of containers to 

transport agricultural commodities and 

products made from those commodities 

(collectively referred to as ‘‘agricultural 

commodities’’), and are preventing or 

delaying American-grown agricultural 

commodities from reaching their 

markets. CCAP will be focused on 

increasing intermodal container 

capacity through partnerships with the 

Port of Oakland, in Oakland, California, 

and the Northwest Seaport Alliance 

(NWSA), a marine cargo operating 

partnership between the Port of Seattle 

and the Port of Tacoma in Washington 

State. Both the Port of Oakland and the 

ports managed by NWSA have been 

identified as key gateways for 

American-grown agricultural 

commodities, and each have also 

experienced significant challenges with 

the flow of containerized agricultural 

commodities. To assist owners of 

American-grown agricultural 

commodities in shipping their 

commodities from U.S. ports to global 

markets, CCAP will support improved 

use of empty shipping containers, along 

with the prepositioning and temporary 

storage of filled shipping containers 

near export terminals. USDA may 

pursue additional temporary 

partnerships with other ports or 

intermodal facilities as supply chain 

conditions warrant, if funding is 

available. In this document, FSA is 

providing the eligibility requirements, 

application process, and payment 

calculations for CCAP. 

DATES:

Funding availability: Implementation 

will begin May 27, 2022. 

Applications Due Date: We will 

accept applications for funding through 

January 31, 2023. 

Comment Due Date: We will consider 

comments on the information collection 

request discussed in the Paperwork 

Reduction Act section that we receive 

by: July 26, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Comments: We invite you to 

submit comments on the information 

collection request. You may submit 

comments using any of the following 

methods, although FSA prefers that you 

submit comments electronically through 

the Federal eRulemaking Portal: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: Go to 

http://www.regulations.gov and search 

for Docket ID FSA–2021–0012. Follow 

the online instructions for submitting 

comments. 

• Mail, Hand-Delivery, or Courier:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

As agricultural producers and 

companies deal with the continued 

impacts of the COVID–19 pandemic, 

ocean carriers’ poor service and refusal 

to serve customers, including refusing to 

provide and ship containers, have 

exacerbated existing challenges. 

Specifically, ocean carriers have made 

fewer shipping containers available for 

U.S. agricultural commodities, 

repeatedly changed return dates, and 

charged unjust fees. These same ocean 

carriers have short-circuited the 

pathways typically used to make 

shipping containers available to be 

filled with agricultural and other goods, 

and they have subsequently rushed 

these containers back to foreign ports 

empty. These trends have and continue 

to be seen at several U.S. ports, 

including but not limited to the Port of 

Oakland, the Port of Seattle, and the 

Port of Tacoma, where many ocean 

carriers have partially or completely 

suspended their services. Historically, 

approximately 60 percent of the 

products marketed through the Port of 

Oakland were agricultural commodities. 

Now, because of ocean carriers’ 

disruptive behavior, some Americangrown agricultural commodities have 

faced severe challenges in reaching their 

markets. Containerized exports of 

agricultural goods fell by 17 percent 

from California ports, costing California 

agriculture an estimated $2.1 billion 

May to September 2021,1 with a more 

severe decline of 34 percent for the Port 

of Oakland. Similar challenges exist at 

the ports managed by the NWSA in 

Washington, where congestion-induced 

impacts to vessel schedules have made 

it difficult for agricultural goods to be 

loaded on ships at the export terminals. 

Containerized exports of agricultural 

commodities from Seattle are down 30 

percent during the last 6 months of 2021 

while empty shipping containers 

leaving the Port of Seattle have 

increased by a similar percentage. 

In accordance with 15 U.S.C. 714c, 

the Secretary is using CCC funds to 

assist owners of agricultural 

commodities in shipping domestic 

agricultural commodities out of the Port 

of Oakland and NWSA. Funds available 

to CCC will be used as authorized by 

section 5(b) of the CCC Charter Act (15 

U.S.C. 714c(b)). This authority will be 

used to assist in making available 

materials and facilities in connection 

with the marketing of agricultural 

commodities. It will assist owners of 

U.S. agricultural commodities with 

ongoing market disruptions and 

facilitate the recovery of shipping and 

other logistical services required to 

bring domestically produced 

agricultural commodities to markets.
