of a petition, for trade adjustment assistance by three fresh blue crab fishermen in the state of Georgia. The Administrator will determine within 40 days whether or not increasing imports of blue crabs contributed importantly to a greater than 15 percent decrease in the quantity of production of fresh blue crabs compared to the average of the 3 preceding marketing years. If a determination is affirmative, commercial fishermen who land and market fresh blue crabs in Georgia will be eligible to apply to the Farm Service Agency for technical assistance at no cost and cash benefits.
