Updates to the Popcorn Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Order

This proposal invites comments on updates to the Popcorn Promotion, Research, and Consumer Information Order (Order). This proposal would increase the mandatory assessment rate from 5 cents per hundredweight of popcorn to 6 cents to reflect the present rate which was administratively increased in 2001 and has been charged of processors since. Additionally, subpart C would be added to the Order prescribing late payment and interest charges on past due assessments.
