comment_details: AMS-CN-13-0085-0003

Full comment text and metadata for a subset of Regulations.gov comments, from the regulations.gov API channel. Includes submitter type and organization. Includes attachment counts and links; the attachment files themselves are not included. Where the served build also carries the bulk-export merge (build_metadata.bulk_merge), most comments have text in comment_texts (reached through comment_bodies.body_sha256); DataDawn serves the API text where it exists, else the bulk text, and labels which. Withdrawn comments carry no text in either table by policy (decisions_log §128). ⚠ PARTICIPATION: where an agency folded a mass-comment campaign into a single record carrying an asserted count (comment_details.duplicate_comments), the same campaign usually also appears as thousands of individual records — measured 2026-08-30 across the regulations.gov bulk exports, 94.1% of dockets with a folded campaign also hold an unfolded one. Neither the record count nor the asserted count is the number of people who commented, and the two must never be summed. https://datadawn.org/methodology.html#participation

AMS-CN-13-0085-0003 See attached file(s)<br/><br/>April 7, 2014<br/><br/>Mr. Darryl Earnest<br/>Deputy Administrator<br/>Cotton &amp; Tobacco Programs, AMS, USDA, <br/>3275 Appling Road, Room 11, Memphis, TN 38133<br/><br/>Subject: User Fees for 2013 Crop Cotton Classification Services to Growers<br/><br/>Dear Mr. Earnest:<br/><br/>The National Cotton Ginners&rsquo; Association (NCGA) is pleased to submit comments on [AMS-CN-13-0085] regarding user fees for 2014 crop cotton classification services to growers. The National Cotton Ginners&rsquo; Association is the national organization representing eight state and regional cotton ginning associations that, in turn, represent some 670 individual cotton gin operations throughout the cotton-producing states. <br/><br/>The NCGC supports maintaining the 2014 user fee at the previous 2013 level of $2.20/bale. We commend AMS for its efficiency in managing the classing operations, with no fee increase as proposed, for 2014. <br/><br/>The NCGA recognizes that the US cotton producer has the best classing system in the world and that AMS is instrumental in ensuring that this system is sustained in the future. It is our hope that AMS will continue to communicate directly with the ginning industry on classing matters. <br/><br/>We appreciate the opportunity to submit these comments.<br/><br/>Sincerely,<br/> <br/>Dwayne T. Alford<br/>NCGA President<br/>     William Ashley Cordova TN   United States Comment(s)   1jy-8bej-oylf 0 AMS-CN-13-0085-0002 2014-04-07T04:00:00Z       0 1 ["https://downloads.regulations.gov/AMS-CN-13-0085-0003/attachment_1.pdf"]
