Milk handlers and producer
groups under the New York-New
Jersey and Middle Atlantic
Federal milk orders have
requested that the Department of
Agriculture hold a public hearing
to consider proposals to extend
Federal order regulation to areas
of northeastern Pennsylvania
which presently are not included in
a Federal order marketing area.
Proposals to add the following 12
Pennsylvania counties to the
Middle Atlantic marketing area
were received; Berks, Carbon,
Columbia, Lehigh, Luzerne,
Monroe, Montour, Northampton,
Northumberland, Schuylkill,
Snyder, and Union.
A proposal was also received to
expand the New York-New Jersey
Federal order marketing area to
include all of the above counties
plus 11 others. The 23 Penn
sylvania counties that would be
added are: Berks, Bradford,
Carbon, Clinton, Columbia,
Lackawanna, Lehigh, Luzerne,
Lycoming, Monroe, Montour,
Northampton, Northumberland,
Pike, Potter, Schuylkill, Snyder,
Sullivan, Susquehanna, Tioga,
Union, Wayne, and Wyoming.
Other proposals would add 20 of
the same counties to the New York-
New Jersey marketing area,
leaving out Berks, Lehigh, and
Northampton Counties.
The proposals have not yet been
approved for inclusion in a notice
of hearing. Before deciding
whether these proposals should be
considered at a public hearing,
interested parties are invited to
submit additional proposals for
consideration at a possible
hearing. Particular attention
should be given to order changes,
such as the applicable Class I
prices for any newly regulated
area, that may need to be made in
each order if the marketing areas
are expanded as proposed.
Proposals should be stated in
specific terms so that the hearing
issues would be clearly set forth.
Four copies of the proposals
should be mailed to: Deputy Ad
ministrator, Marketing Program
Operations, Agricultural
Marketing Service, U.S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington,
D.C. 20250, by April 15,1953.

Each proposal should be ac
companied by a brief but com
prehensive statement on the need
for the proposal. The statement
will be used in deciding whether
che proposal should be considered
at a hearing.
A hearing would be limited to the
proposals included in a bearing
notice. However, appropriate
modifications of proposals in
cluded in the notice also may be
considered at the hearing if the
modifications would not enlarge
the marketing area or regulate
persons not now subject to the
order. Any proposals that would
extend regulation should be ac
companied by the names and
addresses of persons that would be
affected by the proposed extension
and an estimate of the number of
additional dairy farmers involved.
In addition, proposals that would
enlarge the marketing area should
be accompanied by the following
data and views with respect to
each territory proposed to be
added:
