Title: Clarification of Bales Made Available for Shipment by Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) Approved Warehouses 
Abstract:

The Farm Service Agency (FSA) administers the CCC-approved Cotton Warehouse Program for CCC. FSA is amending the regulations that specify the requirements for CCC approved cotton warehouses. The amendment clarifies the definition of Bales Made Available for Shipment (BMAS). CCC-approved cotton warehouses are required to report BMAS, among other data, to CCC weekly. The amendment clarifies that bales made available, but not picked up (BNPU), cannot be "counted" as BMAS for longer than two weeks. A conforming change will be made to the CCC Cotton Storage Agreement.
