||
|
||
(a) Finding of Secretary If the Secretary finds that an order issued under section 6203(a) of this title, or a provision of such order, obstructs or does not tend to effectuate the purposes of this chapter, the Secretary shall terminate or suspend the operation of such order or provision.
|
||
|
||
(b) Periodic referenda The Secretary may periodically conduct a referendum to determine if lime producers, producer-handlers, and importers favor the continuation, termination, or suspension of any order issued under section 6203(a) of this title and in effect at the time of such referendum.
|
||
|
||
(c) Required referenda The Secretary shall hold a referendum under subsection (b)—
|
||
|
||

||
(2) if not less than 10 percent of the lime producers, producer-handlers, and importers subject to assessment under this chapter submit a petition requesting such a referendum.
|
||
|
||
(d) Limitation The termination or suspension of any order, or any provision thereof, shall not be considered an order within the meaning of this chapter.
|
||
|
||
(e) Vote The Secretary shall suspend or terminate the order at the end of the marketing year if the Secretary determines that—
|
||
|
||
(1) the suspension or termination of the order is favored by not less than a majority of those persons voting in a referendum under subsection (b); and
