To Receivers 
Receivers in terminal markets throughout the 
country can have shipments of produce inspected 
for both quality and condition, or for condition 
only. Many receivers use this inspection to 
determine whether or not a shipment meets 
contract terms at time of arrival, to help them 
decide the best use for a particular shipment, 
or as an aid in selling. Inspection service on 
any shipment is available to all parties with a 
financial interest in the commodity. 
CJ USDA is often asked to inspect incoming rail 
cars at terminal markets. 
Receivers, aS a group, or as individuals, 
may enter into a special contract with the De- 
partment to have their entire volume of railcar 
and trucklot receipts inspected. This special 
contract service will be granted only when the 
anticipated volume of inspections is large enough 
to cover inspection costs at reasonable fee rates 
and when inspection manpower is available. 
To receive service, application should be made 
to the nearest terminal market inspection office.
