| 00-2112 | Request for Public Comments on the Official Grading of Imported Beef, Lamb, Veal and Calf Carcasses Under the Authority of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 | Proposed Rule | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) invites comments from producers, importers, packers, processors, commercial users, and other interested persons on the official grading of imported beef, lamb, veal and calf carcasses. Written requests by producer groups to discontinue the grading of imported carcasses are currently under consideration by AMS. AMS Regulations promulgated under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 permits the official grading of imported beef, lamb, veal and calf carcasses provided the carcasses are in compliance with all requirements of the applicable standards and are marked with the country of origin. However, the regulations do not require the retention of country of origin designations on the component meat cuts to the point of final purchase. In light of the producer proposals, AMS is considering several options. Among the options under consideration are: first, discontinue the official grading of imported carcasses; second, revise the grading regulations to require that the country of origin mark is retained on the component cuts after fabrication of an imported carcass that is federally graded; or, third, revise the grading regulations to eliminate the requirement that a country of origin mark be applied to imported carcasses. AMS requests that interested parties comment on these options and/or provide other options and information for consideration. | 2000-02-01 | 2000 | 2 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/02/01/00-2112/request-for-public-comments-on-the-official-grading-of-imported-beef-lamb-veal-and-calf-carcasses | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-02-01/pdf/00-2112.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) invites comments from producers, importers, packers, processors, commercial users, and other interested persons on the official grading of imported beef, lamb, veal and calf carcasses.
