Milk in the Southwest Plains Marketing Area; Suspension of Certain Provisions of the Order

This document suspends indefinitely certain portions of a provision of the Southwest Plains Federal milk marketing order (Order 106), beginning on the date this document is published in the Federal Register. The suspension will allow transfers of Class I fluid milk products from a distributing plant to other plants regulated under Order 106 to be counted as part of the distributing plant's route sales for the purpose of determining the plant's pool status under the order. The suspension was requested by Associated Milk Producers, Inc. (AMPI), and Mid-America Dairymen, Inc. (Mid-America), who stated that it was necessary to restore equity among producers supplying handlers regulated under Order 106.
