7 U.S.C. § 4315 - Certification of organizations; applicable criteria and considerations

Text

The eligibility of any organization to represent producers of flowers and plants of any producing area of the United States or importers of flowers and plants, for purposes of requesting the issuance of an order under section 4304 of this title, or making nominations under section 4306(2) of this title, shall be certified by the Secretary. Certification shall be based, in addition to other available information, upon a factual report submitted by the organization which shall contain information deemed relevant and specified by the Secretary for the making of such determination, including, but not limited to, the following:

(1) geographic territory covered by the organizations active membership;

(2) nature and size of the organizations active membership, the proportion of such active membership accounted for by producers and importers, and information as to the volume of production by State or the volume of importation by country accounted for by the organizations producer and importer members;

(3) the extent to which the producer and importer membership of such organization is represented in setting the organizations policies;

(4) evidence of stability and permanency of the organization;

(5) sources from which the organizations operating funds are derived;

(6) functions of the organization;

(7) whether the majority of the governing board of the organization is composed of producers and importers; and

(8) the organizations ability and willingness to further the aims and objectives of this chapter.

The primary consideration in determining the eligibility of any organization shall be whether its membership consists of a substantial number of producers and importers who produce and import a substantial volume of flowers and plants. The Secretary shall certify any organization which is found to be eligible under this section, and the Secretarys determination as to eligibility shall be final. Whenever more than one organization is certified in any geographic area, such organizations may caucus to determine the areas nominations under section 4306(2) of this title.
