SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In the December 12, 2016, Federal Register (81 FR 89428), AMS announced the designation of Amarillo to provide official services under the USGSA, effective October 1, 2016, to September 30, 2021. Subsequently, Amarillo asked AMS to amend their designation to include official weighing services. The USGSA authorizes the Secretary to designate authority to perform official weighing to an agency providing official inspection services within a specified geographic area, if such agency is qualified under 7 U.S.C. 79. Under 7 U.S.C. 79(a), AMS evaluated information regarding the designation criteria in section 7 U.S.C. 79 and determined that Amarillo is qualified to provide official weighing services in their currently assigned geographic area. Therefore, Amarillo's designation is amended to include Class X or Class Y weighing within their assigned geographic area, effective July 1, 2020, to September 30, 2021. Interested persons may obtain official services by contacting Amarillo at (806) 372-8511.

Authority: 7 U.S.C. 71-87k.

Administrator, Agricultural Marketing Service.
