New York Codes, Rules and Regulations › Title 1 - DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND MARKETS › Chapter I - Milk Control › Subchapter B - Milk Control Orders › Part 20 - New York/new Jersey Milk Marketing Area (revised Official Order No. 126) › Minimum Prices › Section 20.52 - Transportation differentials

Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 28, July 10, 2024
The class prices set forth in section
						20.50  of this Part shall be subject
						to a transportation differential determined in accordance with subdivisions (a)
						through (e) of this section.
(a) The
					 market administrator shall determine a freight zone for each pool plant and
					 each partial pool plant. Such freight zone shall be the shortest highway
					 mileage from the plant to the nearest of the following points as computed by
					 the market administrator from data contained in Mileage Guide No. 5, without
					 supplements, issued on July 20, 1949, effective August 21, 1949, by the
					 Household Goods Carriers' Bureau, Agent, Washington, D.C.: Mount Vernon or
					 Yonkers in the State of New York; Tenafly, Glen Ridge, East Orange, Elizabeth,
					 Hackensack, Hillside, Irvington or Passaic in the State of New Jersey. The
					 freight zone for plants located in New York City, Nassau and Suffolk Counties
					 in the State of New York, or in Essex, Hudson and Union Counties in the State
					 of New Jersey, shall be in the 1- to 10-mile zone. The market administrator
					 shall publicly announce the freight zones for pool plants.
(b) The market administrator shall determine
					 and publicly announce a freight zone for each minor civil division (township,
					 borough, incorporated village or city) within which farms included in a pool or
					 partial pool unit are located by computing the shortest highway mileage
					 distance from the nearest point in the minor civil division to the nearest
					 point specified in subdivision (a) of this section, using the mileage guide
					 specified in such subdivision supplemented by U.S. Geological Survey maps. In
					 states where the smallest governmental unit except for incorporated cities or
					 villages is the county, a zone for the county shall be determined in the same
					 manner as for minor civil divisions. The zone for each farm shall be the zone
					 of the minor civil division or county in which the farm is located.
(c) The differential rates applicable at
					 plants shall be as set forth in the following schedule:

(d) The differential rate applicable to each
					 pool unit or partial pool unit shall be computed each month as follows:
					 multiply the volume of pool milk received from farms in each zone by the rate
					 for that zone as set forth in the schedule in subdivision (c) of this section,
					 add the resulting values for all zones of the unit, divide such sum by the
					 total volume of milk received by the unit and round to the nearest 0.5 cent.
					 Rates shall be computed separately for columns B and C of such
					 schedule.
(e) In the event that a
					 plant in the 401 miles and over freight zone becomes a pool plant, a 10-mile
					 zone shall be determined for such plant and for each farm in any pool unit
					 delivering to such plant. The column B differentials in subdivision (c) of this
					 section shall be extended at the same rate as provided in such column or such
					 plant or unit; provided, that in no case shall such differential cause the
					 class price or the uniform price for such plant or unit to be less than the
					 Class III price for such plant or unit; provided further, that farms or units
					 delivering to such plant shall be deemed to be in the same zone as the
					 plant.
