## Abstract

The Commodity Credit Corporation is adopting, as a final rule, with certain changes, the provisions of an August 5, 1998, interim rule that eased conditions for marketing Segregation 3 peanuts. The interim rule allowed peanut producers to recondition and regrade peanuts in certain limited instances. Peanuts are graded as "Segregation 3" peanuts when they are found by visual inspection to have Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) mold. This rule changes the provisions of the interim rule to allow peanuts found to have the mold to be cleaned at a different buying point if the buying point to which a producer delivered the peanuts does not have cleaning facilities. In addition, this rule formally extends the time for having the peanuts visually reinspected to 72 hours and, under certain conditions, allows reinspection at an alternate site. This rule continues to limit reinspection to only once for any given lot. Comments solicited in the interim rule with respect to chemical inspection of farmers stock peanuts are discussed in this rule. However, no change has been made at this time with respect to that issue. In addition, this rule makes certain other technical/administrative changes to the program regulations. One of those is a provision allowing for waivers of non statutory program requirements in cases where such waivers serve the purposes of the program. Secondly, the rule drops a provision which refers to a defunct crop insurance procedure.
