## Abstract

The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA) is increasing certain fees for Federal rice inspection services performed under the Agricultural Marketing Act (AMA) of 1946. This fee increase is intended to cover, as nearly as practicable, the projected approximate 3.6 percent increase to Federal salaries for Federal Rice Inspection Services. The increase is designed to generate additional revenue required to recover operational costs created by cost-of-living increases to Federal salaries January 1, 1999.
