Agricultural Marketing Service

    Title: Report Forms under a California Federal Milk Marketing Order 
(from Milk Handlers and Milk Marketing Cooperatives); Referendum 
Procedures.
    OMB Control Number: 0581-New.
    Summary of Collection: The Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 
1937 (AMAA) as amended, (7 U.S.C. 601-674, and 7253), authorizes the 
Federal Milk Marketing Order (FMMO) Program. The authority for 
conducting a producer referendum to ascertain whether the issuance of 
an order is approved or favored is outlined in 7 U.S.C. 608c(9). The 
California dairy industry requested promulgation of a FMMO for 
California similar, to the 10 existing FMMO's throughout the United 
States. The proposed FMMO incorporates the entire state of California 
and would adopt the same dairy product classification and pricing 
provisions used throughout the current FMMO system. AMS will issue a 
Final Decision on promulgating a California FMMO.
    Need and Use of the Information: A referendum will be conducted and 
the information collected would be used by the Agricultural Marketing 
Service Dairy Program to determine whether producers and/or cooperative 
associations support implementation of the California FMMO. If the 
collection is not conducted, producers and/or cooperative associations 
would be unable to vote on the California FMMO. The referendum is 
necessary to determine whether the California FMMO should be 
established.
    Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 1,453.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 363.

Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
