## Abstract

This final rule revises regulations under the California almond marketing order to authorize interhandler transfers of reserve obligations. The almond marketing order regulates the handling of almonds grown in California and is administered locally by the Almond Board of California (Board). This rule will allow the Board to implement authority contained in the marketing order to authorize handlers to transfer reserve withholding obligations to other handlers. It will provide handlers with an additional option to satisfy reserve obligations. This rule will enhance the utility and flexibility of the volume control regulations while benefiting producers, handlers, and consumers.
