Abstract
This rule decreases the assessment rate established for the California Olive Committee (Committee) for the 2002 and subsequent fiscal years from $27.90 to $10.09 per ton of olives handled. The Committee locally administers the marketing order which regulates the handling of olives grown in California. Authorization to assess olive handlers enables the Committee to incur expenses that are reasonable and necessary to administer the program. The fiscal year began January 1, 2002, and ends December 31, 2002. The assessment rate will remain in effect indefinitely unless modified, suspended, or terminated.
