Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 162 / Friday, August 21, 2015 / Proposed Rules
conflict with this rule. The rule will
impact marketing programs that regulate
the handling of processed raisins under
7 CFR part 989. Raisins under a
marketing order have to meet certain
requirements set forth in the grade
standards. In addition, raisins are
subject to section 8e import
requirements under the Agricultural
Marketing Act of 1937, as amended (7
U.S.C. 601–674), which requires
imported raisins to meet grade, size, and
quality under the applicable marketing
order (7 CFR part 999).
Background
AMS continually reviews all fruit and
vegetable grade standards to ensure
their usefulness in the industry, and to
modernize language and remove
duplicative terminology. On May 13,
2013, AMS received a petition from the
Little People of America stating that
they ‘‘are trying to raise awareness
around and eliminate the use of the
word midget.’’ The petition further
stated that, ‘‘Though the use of the word
midget by the USDA when classifying
certain food products is benign, Little
People of America, and the dwarfism
community, hopes that the USDA
would consider phasing out the term
midget.’’
AMS determined that the processed
raisin grade standard contained ‘‘small
or midget’’ terminology for the same
requirement. Before developing these
proposed revisions, AMS solicited
comments and suggestions about the
grade standards from the RAC. The RAC
represents the entire California raisin
industry; no other state produces raisins
commercially. On August 14, 2014, the
RAC approved the removal of the term
midget from the standards.
AMS is proposing to remove five
references to the term ‘‘midget’’ in the
following sections: 52.1845(b) and (c),
52.1850(a)(2) and (a)(3), and Table I.
The proposed revisions would
modernize and help clarify the language
of the standard by removing dual
terminology for the same requirement.
The proposed rule provides a 60-day
period during which interested parties
may comment on the revisions to the
standard.

FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE
AGENCY
12 CFR Part 1238
RIN 2590–AA74
Proposed Amendments to the Stress
Test Rule
Federal Housing Finance
Agency.
ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking
with request for comment.
AGENCY:
The Federal Housing Finance
Agency (FHFA) is proposing
amendments to its stress testing rule
adopted in 2013 to implement section
165(i) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
The amendments would modify the
start date of the stress test cycles from
October 1 of a calendar year to January
1 of the following calendar year. The
amendments would also modify the
dates for FHFA to issue scenarios for the
upcoming cycle, the dates for the
regulated entities to report the results of
their stress tests to FHFA, and the dates
for the regulated entities to publicly
disclose a summary of their stress test
results for the severely adverse scenario.
These amendments would align FHFA’s
rule with rules adopted by other
financial institution regulators that
implement the Dodd-Frank stress testing
requirements.
DATES: Comments on the proposed
amendments must be received on or
before September 21, 2015.
ADDRESSES: You may submit your
comments, identified by regulatory
identification number (RIN) 2590–
AA74, by any of the following methods:
• Agency Web site: www.fhfa.gov/
open-for-comment-or-input.
• Federal eRulemaking Portal: http://
www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments. If
you submit your comment to the
Federal eRulemaking Portal, please also
send it by email to FHFA at
[email protected] to ensure
timely receipt by the agency. Please
include ‘‘RIN 2590–AA74’’ in the
subject line of the message.
