due for any prior packing season. 



(2) Whenever it is determined, with- 

 out hearing, by the Administration that 

 an establishment having the inspecUon 

 service has been damaged by wind, fire, 

 flood, or other calamity, to such an ex- 

 tent that packing operations cannot be 

 resumed before the end of the fiscal year 

 then current, no advance payments fall- 

 ing due after such calamity shall be 

 required from the packer for that fiscal 

 year; but whenever it is determined, 

 without hearing, by the Administration 

 that an establishment having the inspec- 

 tion service has been so damaged by any 

 such calamity that operations must be 

 suspended temporarily, but can be re- 

 sumed before the end of the fiscal year 

 then current, advance payments falling 

 due after such calamity and before the 

 month of resumption of operations shall 

 be postponed until operations are re- 

 simied, and thereupon shall be paid in 

 equal monthly installments during the 

 period between the time of resumption 

 of operations and June 1 of the fiscal year 

 then current: Provided. That in the 

 event of a determination described in 

 this subparagraph the total payments 

 and deposits made by the packer involved 

 shall be charged with the cost of the 

 service made available for the establish- 

 ment without regard to the method pro- 

 vided hereinafter for computing charges 

 against payments and deposits for 

 shrimp received, and the balance of the 

 total payments and deposits for shrimp 

 received remaining after such charges 

 shaU be refunded by the Administration 

 to the packer after the completion of the 

 fiscal year. 



(3) Each application for an extension 

 inspection period of 1 month shall be 

 accompanied by a payment of $600.00. 

 and at subsequent monthly intervals 

 thereafter additional payments of 

 $600.00 shall be made; but if the final 

 payment is to cover a period of less than 

 30 days, then such payment shall be at 

 the^rate of $20.00 for each day of such 

 period. 



(b) (1) In addition to the payments 

 prescribed in paragraph (a) of this sec- 

 tion, advance deposits based upon the 

 quantity of shrimp received by the sub- 

 scribing establishment shall be made to 

 underwrite adequately the cost of the 

 inspection service. Such deposits shall 

 be paid in advance in amounts of not 

 less than $300.00, unless the Adminis- 

 tration on an estimate of receipt of 

 shrimp authorizes other amounts, and 

 shall be <:omputed at the rate of 20 cents 

 per 100 pounds of whole raw shrimp, or 

 35 cents per 100 pounds of raw headless 

 shrimp, received by the plant. For the 

 purposes of this section, the quantity of 

 shrimp received by an establishment 

 shall be determined by weighing on a 

 suitable scale immediately after such 

 shrimp leaves the initial Inspection belt: 

 Provided, however. That other arrange- 

 ments for determining accurately the 

 weight of shrimp received may be em- 

 ployed If approved In advance by the 

 Administration. A record of such 

 weights shall be maintained and made 

 available to the inspector upon his re- 



quest. Any advance deixjsits in excess 

 of those required for actual shrimp re- 

 ceived for the fiscal year (July 1 

 through June 30) shall be refunded to 

 the packer by the Administration after 

 the completion of the fiscal year. 



(2) Deposits for shrimp received as 

 computed under paragraph (b) (1) of 

 this section, together with production 

 deposits prescribed for oysters canned 

 under § 85-28 (b) (1), shall be charged 

 with the balance of tVie total cost of the 

 inspection service that has not been pro- 

 vided for by the combined total payments 

 under paragraph (a) of this section and 

 paragraph (a) of § 85 .28, in the case of 

 carmed oysters. The balance of the de- 

 posits remaining for shrimp received 

 after such charges have been n^ade shall 

 be refunded by the Administration to 

 the packers after the completion of the 

 fiscal year, in the ratio which each 

 packer's deposits for shrimp received 

 and production deposits for oysters 

 canned bears to the combined total of 

 such deposits for shrimp received and 

 oysters canned by all packers for the 

 fiscal year. 



(3) When inspection service Is with- 

 drawn from an establishment as author- 

 ized under § 85 14 (a), the Adhiinistrqi- 

 tion shall not return to the packer any 

 advance payments and/or deposits re- 

 quired to the date of withdrawal of the 

 service. Such payments and/or deposits 

 shall be charged with the cost of the 

 service made available for the estab- 

 lishment, without regard to the method 

 described in this section, and the balance 

 which would have accrued to such packer 

 shall remain to the credit of the Pood 

 and Drug Administration in the special 

 account "Salaries and Expenses, Cer- 

 tification and Inspection Services." 



(c) A separate fee shall be paid to 

 cover all expenses, incurred in accord- 

 ance with the regulations of the United 

 States Gtovemment, for salary, travel, 

 subsistence, and other purposes Incident 

 to inspection described under §85 .4 

 (b) of suppliers of any materials to es- 

 tablishments under the Inspection service 

 or fbr the purpose of issuing a certificate 

 or warehousing or export permit on 

 processed shrimp stored or held at any 

 place other than an estabUshment to 

 which a sea food inspector Is ttien 

 assigned. 



(d) When the processmg plant ana 

 the warehouse or cold storage plant of 

 an establishment are located at dififerent 

 points of such distance apart that trans- 

 portation between them is required fot 

 the inspector to perform his duties in 

 the establishment, the packer shall fur- 

 nish such transportation or shall pay a 

 separate fee to cover aU eicpe^ises 

 therefor. 



(e) All payments required by the reg- 

 ulations in this part shall be by bank 

 draft or certified check, collectible at par. 

 drawn to the order of the Treasurer.

 ton. D. C. AU such drafts and checks, 

 except those for the payment required
