PART 729--PEANUTS--Table of Contents
 
   Subpart C--Marketing Cards, Marketings, Penalties, and Assessments
 
Sec. 729.317  Increased marketing assessments.

    (a) Applicability. If area quota pool losses are not otherwise 
covered by the offsets prescribed by part 1446 of this title, and the 
transfer of marketing assessments collected in accordance with 
provisions of this part, the marketing assessment for quota peanut 
producers shall be:
    (1) Increased by an amount needed by CCC to cover such losses; and
    (2) Collected as determined by CCC on all quota peanuts marketed in 
the next marketing year in the area covered by the quota pool which had 
the loss.
    (b) Insufficient collections. If the amount of such increased 
assessments collected on the marketing of quota peanuts in any year is 
less than the amount needed to cover the accumulated net pool losses for 
any crop, there shall be an increased assessment in subsequent years 
until the amount needed is collected.
    (c) Excess collections. If the increased amount of assessments, as 
provided in this section, collected on the marketing of quota peanuts 
for any year is greater than the amount needed for the purpose for which 
the collection is made, the excess amount shall be retained to offset 
any losses which may occur in quota pools within that marketing area in 
subsequent years.
    (d) Collection procedures. Unless otherwise specified by CCC, the 
collection procedures for the increased assessments shall be as provided 
for in Sec. 729.316 and the assessment rates of Sec. 729.316 shall be 
increased accordingly.
