Pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Agricultural Marketing Agree ment Act of 1937, as amended 7 U. S. C.
601 et seq., Marketing Agreement No.
I l l and Order No. 94 7 CFR, 1953 Rev., Part 994 regulating the handling of pecans grown in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and South Carolina, it is hereby found and determined that the provisions of 994.6 b 2 and 3
of said agreement and order and, 994.501 7 CFR, 1953 Rev., 994.501
of the supplementary regulations, no longer tend to effectuate the declared policy of the act and that said provisions should be suspended.
The aforesaid provisions require all pecan handlers to furnish to the Secre tary on specific days information with respect to prices which they have paid and received for pecans during the then current week. Experience under order operations indicate that it is impracti cable to obtain full compliance of all handlers with these provisions. Some large handlers purchase few, if any, pecans directly from growers, and for that reason have not been able to furnish the required information on prices paid to growers. Throughout the five-state area, numerous itinerant truckers and small dealers carry on handling opera tions, and it has been found extremely difficult and impracticable to obtain the weekly reports regularly from many of the handlers.
The order is principally concerned with the requirement that all pecan ship ments from the five-States for inshell distribution meet minimum standards of quality and size rather than with supply ing price information to growers and others. The discontinuance in effect of these price reporting requirements will not seriously interfere with future ad ministration on the basis of these min imum standards. I t is, therefore, con
cluded that the mandatory price report ing provisions should be suspended.
I t is hereby ordered, That 994.6 b 2 and 3 of Marketing Agreement No.
I l l and Order No. 94 regulating the handling of pecans grown in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, and South Carolina 7 CFR 1953 Rev., Part 994 and 994.501 See 7 CFR 1953 Rev., 994.501
of the supplementary regulations be, and they hereby are, suspended.
Notice of proposed rule making, public participation therein and delay in mak ing this order effective later than the date of its publication in the F ed er al R e g is t e r see section 4 of the Adminis trative Procedure Act; 5 U. S. C. 1001 et seq. are impracticable, unnecessary, and contrary to the public interest in that the effect of this action is to remove require ments imposed upon handlers and it is desirable that the removal of such re quirements be made effective as soon as practicable. No prior preparation in this regard on the part of handlers will be necessary.
Sec. 5, 49 Stat. 753, as amended; 7 U. S. C.
