Agricultural Marketing Service Title: Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements United States Grain Standards Act and Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946.
OMB Control Number: 05800309.
Summary of Collection: Congress enacted the United States Grain Standards Acts USGSA and the Agricultural Marketing Act AMA to facilitate the marketing of grain, oilseeds, pulses, rice, and related commodities. These statutes establish standards and terms that accurately and consistently measure the quality of grain and related products, provide for uniform official inspection and weighing, provide regulatory and official service responsibilities, and furnish the framework for commodity quality improvement incentives to both domestic and foreign buyers. The Department of Agriculture USDA
Agriculture Marketing Services AMS
Federal Grain Inspection Service FGIS
establishes policies, guidelines, and regulations to carry out the objectives of the USGSA and the AMA. The USGSA, AMA, and related regulations can be found at the AMS website.
The USGSA, with few exceptions, requires that grain sold for export and grain sold by grade be officially certified. Official services are also provided, upon request, for grain sold domestically. The AMA authorizes similar inspection and weighing services, upon request, for rice, pulses, flour, corn meal, and certain other agricultural products. Conversely, the regulations issued under the USGSA
and AMA require that FGIS collect specific information and keep certain records necessary to carry out requests for official services. Applicants for service must specify the kind and level of service desired, the identification of
the product, the location, the amount, and other pertinent information in order that official personnel can efficiently respond to their needs.
Official services under the USGSA are provided by FGIS field offices and official agencies, which may be classified as delegated or designated agencies. Delegated agencies are State agencies delegated authority under the USGSA to provide official inspection and/or weighing services at export port locations in the State. Designated agencies are State or local governmental agencies, or private agencies designated under the USGSA to provide official inspection and/or weighing services at locations other than export port locations. Official agencies provide services on behalf of FGIS and must comply with all regulations, procedures, and instructions in accordance with provisions established under the USGSA. FGIS oversees the performance of these agencies and provides technical guidance as needed.
Official services under the AMA are performed, upon request, on a fee basis for domestic and export shipments either by FGIS employees, individual contractors, or cooperators. Contractors are persons who enter into a contract with FGIS to perform specified inspection services. Cooperators are agencies or departments of the Federal government which have an interagency agreement or State agencies which have a reimbursable agreement with FGIS.
