provides that a supply plant
meeting pooling performance
requirements during the period
September through February may
be automatically qualified in the
following months of March through
August;
reduce from 40 percent to 30
percent the percentage of receipts
required to be disposed of as Class
I milk by a pool distributing plant;
increase from 18 to 21 the
number of a dairy farmer’s days of
production which may be diverted
to nonpool plants during any month
of September through February.

proposals have not yet been ap

hearing. Before deciding whether
a hearing should be held, USDA is
