§ 1060.62 Obligation of handler operating a partially regulated distributing plant.

Each handler who operates a partially regulated distributing plant shall pay to the market administrator for the producer-settlement fund on or before the 25th day after the end of the month either of the amounts (at the handler's election) calculated pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this section. If the handler fails to report pursuant to §§ 1060.35 (h) and 1060.36 the information necessary to compute the amount specified in paragraph (a), he shall pay the amount computed pursuant to paragraph (b) of this section:

(a) An amount computed as follows:

(1) (i) The obligation that would have been computed pursuant to § 1060.70 at such plant shall be determined as though such plant were a pool plant. For purposes of such computation, receipts at such nonpool plant from a pool plant or an other order plant shall be assigned to the utilization at which classified at the pool plant or other order plant and transfers from such nonpool plant to a pool plant or an other order plant shall be classified as Class II milk if allocated to such class at the pool plant or other order plant and be valued at the uniform price of the respective order if so allocated to Class I milk, except that reconstituted skim milk in filled milk shall be valued at the Class II price. There shall be included in the obligation so computed a charge in the amount specified in § 1060.70 (f) and a credit in the amount specified in § 1060.84 (b) (2) with respect to receipts from an unregulated supply plant, except that the credit for receipts of reconstituted skim milk in filled milk shall be at the Class II price, unless an obligation with respect to such plant is computed as specified n subdivision (ii) of this subparagraph; ind

(ii) If the operator of the partially egulated distributing plant so requests, nd provides with his report pursuant to

1060.35(b) and 1060.36, a similar rert wi respect to the operations of

any other nonpool plant which serves as a supply plant for such partially regulated distributing plant by shipments to such plant during the month equivalent to the requirements of § 1060.23(b), with agreement of the operator of such plant that the market administrator may examine the books and records of such plant for purposes of verification of such reports, there will be added the amount of the obligation computed at such nonpool supply plant in the same manner and subject to the same conditions as for the partially regulated distributing plant.

(2) From this obligation there will be deducted the sum of (i) the gross payments made by such handler for Grade A milk received during the month from dairy farmers at such plant and like payments made by the operator of a supply plant(s) included in the computations pursuant to subparagraph (1) of this paragraph, and (ii) any payments to the producer-settlement fund of another order under which such plant is also a partially regulated distributing plant;

(b) An amount computed as follows: (1) Determine the respective amounts of skim milk and butterfat disposed of as Class I milk on routes (other than to pool plants) in the marketing area;

(2) Deduct (except that deducted under a similiar provision of another order issued pursuant to the Act) the respective amounts of skim milk and butterfat received as Class I milk at the partially regulated distributing plant from pool plants and other order plants;

(3) Deduct the quantity of reconstituted skim milk in fluid milk products disposed of on routes in the marketing area;

(4) Combine the amounts of skim milk and butterfat remaining into one total and determine the weighted average butterfat content; and

(5) From the value of such milk at the Class I price applicable at the location of the nonpool plant, subtract its value at the uniform price applicable at such location (not to be less than the Class II price), and add for the qauntity of reconstituted skim milk specified in subparagraph (3) of this paragraph its value computed at the Class I price applicable at the location of the nonpool plant less the value of such skim milk at the Class II price.

price if the plant is located in North or South Dakota and shall be subtracted from such price if the plant is located in Minnesota; and

(3) Transfers of fluid milk products between pool plants shall be assigned Class I milk disposition at the receiving plant, in excess of the sum of receipts at such plant from producers (including receipts from a cooperative association as a handler of bulk tank milk pursuant to § 1060.10 (c)) and the pounds assigned as Class I milk to receipts from other order plants and unregulated supply plants. Such assignment is to be made first to shipping plants priced at the same price, next to plants having a higher price, and then in sequence to plants having a lower price, beginning with the plant at which the highest price would apply.

APPLICATION OF PROVISIONS

(a) Sections 1060.40 through 1060.46, 1060.50 through 1060.54, 1060.70, 1060.71. and 1060.80 through 1060.88 shall not apply to a producer-handler: and

(b) None of the provisions of this part shall apply to a governmentally owned and operated institution which disposes of Class I milk solely for use on its own premises or to its own facilities. Sales of fluid milk products from a pool plant to such an institution shall be Class I and receipts of fluid milk products at a pool plant from such an institution shall be Class II.

§ 1060.61

Plants subject to other Federal orders.

The provisions of this order shall not apply with respect to a plant of a handler specified in paragraph (a), (b), or (c) of this section except as specified in paragraphs (d) and (e):

(a) A distributing plant from which the Secretary determines a greater portion of fluid milk products, except filled milk, is disposed of on routes in another marketing area regulated by another order issued pursuant to the Act and such plant is fully subject to regulation of such other order: Provided, That a distributing plant which was a pool plant under this order in the immediately preceding month shall continue to be subject to all of the provisions of this part until the third consecutive month in which a greater proportion of its Class I disposition, except filled milk, on routes

is made in such other marketing area unless, notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph, it is regulated by such other order;

(b) A distributing plant which meets the requirements set forth in § 1060.23(a) which also meets the requirements of another marketing order on the basis of its distribution in such other marketing area and from which the Secretary determines a greater quantity of fluid milk products, except filled milk, is disposed of during the month on routes in this marketing area than is so disposed of in such other marketing area but which plant is nevertheless fully regulated under such other marketing order;

(c) A supply plant from which the Secretary determines a greater proportion of its Grade A receipts, except filled milk, is shipped during the month to plants which are regulated by another order pursuant to the Act if such shipments qualify it as a pool plant under such other order;

(d) Each handler operating a plant described in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this section shall, with respect to total receipts and utilization or disposition of skim milk and butterfat at such plant, report to the market administrator at such time and in such manner as the market administrator may require (in lieu of reports pursuant to §§ 1060.35 through 1060.37) and allow verification of such reports by the market administrator; and

(e) Each handler operating a plant specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this section if such plant is subject to the classification and pricing provisions of another order which provides for individual handler pooling, shall pay to the market administrator for the producersettlement fund on or before the 25th day after the end of the month an amount computed as follows:

(1) Determine the quantity of reconstituted skim milk in filled milk disposed of on routes in the marketing area which was allocated to Class I at such other order plant. If reconstituted skim milk in filled milk is disposed of from such plant on routes in marketing areas regulated by two or more market pool orders, the reconstituted skim milk assigned to Class I shall be prorated according to such disposition in each area; and

(2) Compute the value of the quantity assigned in subparagraph (1) of this

paragraph to Class I disposition in this area, at the Class I price under this part applicable at the location of the other order plant and subtract its value at the Class II price.

DETERMINATION OF UNIFORM PRICE

§ 1060.70 Computation of the net pool obligation of each pool handler.

The net pool obligation of each pool handler as described in § 1060.10 (a), (b), and (c) during each month shall be a sum of money computed by the market administrator as follows:

(a) Multiply the quantity of producer milk in each class as computed pursuant to 1060.46 (c), by the applicable class prices (adjusted pursuant to §§ 1060.52 and 1060.53);

(b) Add the amount obtained from multiplying the pounds of overage deducted from each class pursuant to § 1060.46 (a) (11) and the corresponding step of 1060.46 (b) by the applicable class prices;

(c) Add the amount computed from multiplying the difference between the appropriate Class II price for the preceding month and the appropriate Class I price for the current month by the hundredweight of skim milk and butterfat subtracted from Class I pursuant to § 1060.46(a) (6) and the corresponding step of § 1060.46 (b);

(d) Add (or subtract, pursuant to the proviso of this paragraph) the amount computed from multiplying the difference between the appropriate Class I price of the preceding month and the appropriate Class I price for the current month by the hundredweight of skim milk and butterfat subtracted from Class I pursuant to § 1060.46 (a) (3) and the corresponding step of 1060.46 (b): Provided, That if the Class I price for the current month is less than the Class I price for the preceding month, the result shall be a minus amount;

(e) Add the amount equal to the difference between the value at the Class I price applicable at the pool plant and the value at the Class II price, with respect to skim milk and butterfat from other source milk subtracted from Class I pursuant to § 1060.46 (a) (4) and the corresponding step of § 1060.46(b), except that for receipts of fluid milk products assigned to Class I pursuant to § 1060.46 (a) (4) (iv) and (v) and the corresponding step of § 1060.46(b) the Class I price shall be adjusted to the location of the transferor plant; and

(f) Add an amount equal to the value at the Class I price adjusted for location of the nearest nonpool plant(s) from which an equivalent volume was received with respect to skim milk and butterfat

For each month the market administrator shall compute a uniform price as follows:

(a) Combine into one total the values computed pursuant to § 1060.70 for all handlers who filed reports pursuant to §§ 1060.35 and 1060.37(b) for the month and who made the payments pursuant to §§ 1060.80 and 1060.84 for the preceding month;

(b) Add or subtract for each one-tenth percent that the average butterfat content of milk represented by the values specified in paragraph (a) of this section is less or more, respectively, than 3.5 percent, the amount obtained by multiplying such difference by the butterfat differential pursuant to § 1060.81 and by multiplying the result by the total hundredweight of such milk;

(d) Subtract an amount equal to the total value of the plus location differentials computed pursuant to § 1060.82(a);

(e) Add an amount equal to not less than one-half of the unobligated balance in the producer-settlement fund;

(f) Divide the resulting amount by the sum of the following for all handlers included in these computations;

(1) The total hundredweight of producer milk; and

(2) The total hundredweight for which a value is computed pursuant to § 1060.70 (f); and

(g) Subtract not less than 4 cents nor more than 5 cents per hundredweight. The result shall be the "uniform price" for milk received from producers.

PAYMENTS
