Sec.  1435.302  Establishment and suspension of allotments.

    (a) By the beginning of the crop year, CCC will establish the 
overall allotment quantity, beet sugar and cane sugar allotments, State 
cane sugar allotments, and allocations for processors marketing sugar 
domestically processed from sugar beets and domestically produced 
sugarcane at a level estimated to result in no sugar loan collateral 
forfeitures to CCC.
    (b) Marketing allotments will be suspended whenever CCC determines 
that imports of sugars, syrups, and molasses for domestic human 
consumption or to be used for the extraction of sugar for domestic human 
consumption, whether under a tariff-rate quota or not, will exceed 
1,532,000 short tons, raw value, excluding any imports attributable to a 
reassignment of allotments, and that the imports would lead to a 
reduction in the overall allotment quantity. The suspension of marketing 
allotments will be lifted if CCC subsequently determines that imports 
are estimated to be no higher than 1,532,000 short tons, raw value.
    (c) Each determination under this section to establish or suspend 
marketing allotments will be published in
