Abstract
In response to a petition from the National Food Processors Association (NFPA), the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is revising the United States Standards for Grades of frozen green and frozen wax beans. The revision changes the U.S. grade standards for frozen green and frozen wax beans by providing for the ``individual attributes'' procedure for product grading with sample sizes, acceptable quality levels (AQL's), tolerances and acceptance numbers (number of allowable defects), establishing AQL's and acceptance numbers based on a specified sample size of 13 sample units, and making minor editorial changes.
