Vidalia onions grown in Georgia; change in assessment
requirements
AGENCY: Agricultural Marketing Service, USDA.
ACTION: Interim final rule with request for comments.
SUMMARY: This rule changes the assessment collection
requirements currently prescribed under the Vidalia onion
marketing order (order). The order regulates the handling of
Vidalia onions grown in Georgia and is administered locally by
the Vidalia Onion Committee (Committee). Currently, assessment
payments received in the Committee office later than 4 p.m. on
the Tuesday following the week in which shipments are made are
subject to late payment penalties. This action allows handlers
to mail their assessment payments to the Committee office
without incurring late payment penalties as long as the payment
is postmarked on or before the due date.
