Milk in the Central Arizona and New Mexico-West Texas Marketing Areas; Suspension of Certain Provisions of the Orders

This document suspends certain provisions of the Central Arizona (Order 131) and New Mexico-West Texas (Order 138) Federal milk marketing orders from the day after publication in the Federal Register until implementation of Federal order reform. The suspensions have been in effect for both orders for periods beginning in 1995 in Central Arizona and 1993 in New Mexico-West Texas at the request of cooperatives representing nearly all of the producers in Order 131 and most of the producers in Order 138, and were expected to become unnecessary under the provisions of the final rule establishing the Arizona-Las Vegas and Southwest orders under Federal Milk Order Reform.
