SUMMARY: The Agricultural Marketing Service is correcting the proposed 
rule that appeared in the Federal Register of August 6, 2003 (68 FR 
46505), which gave notice of a public hearing to be held to consider 
proposals to amend the producer-handler provisions of the Arizona-Las 
Vegas and Pacific Northwest orders. The document was published with 
errors in the regulatory text regarding the amendments to the producer-
handler definitions in Sec.  1124.10 and Sec.  1131.10. This docket 
corrects these errors.
