Trade Adjustment Assistance for Farmers
AGENCY: Foreign Agricultural Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural
Service (FAS), today accepted a petition, and
began a review of a petition, for trade
adjustment assistance by the Florida Keys
Commercial Fishermen's
Association on behalf of Florida fishermen who
catch and market rock "spiny'' lobsters. The
Administrator will determine within 40 days
whether or not increasing imports of rock
``spiny'' lobster contributed importantly to a
greater than 15 percent decrease in the national
average price of rock "spiny'' lobsters compared
to the average of the 3 preceding marketing
years. If a determination is affirmative,
fishermen who catch and market rock "spiny''
lobsters in Florida will
be eligible to apply to the Farm Service Agency
for technical assistance at no cost and cash
benefits.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Trade
Adjustment Assistance Staff,
FAS, USDA, at (202) 720-0638, or by email at:
tradeadjustment@fas.usda.gov. Additional
program information can be obtained at the Web
