Abstract
The Federal Grain Inspection Service (FGIS) of the Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA) is increasing fees by approximately 2.4 percent for all hourly rates, certain unit rates, and the administrative tonnage fee. These fees apply to official inspection and weighing services performed in the United States under the United States Grain Standards Act (USGSA), as amended. These increases are needed to cover increased operational costs resulting from the approximate 4.8 percent mandated January 2000 Federal pay increase.
