SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the February 26, 2013 Federal Register
(78 FR 13015), GIPSA announced the designation of Detroit to provide
official services under the USGSA, effective April 1, 2013 to March 31,
2016. Subsequently, Detroit asked GIPSA to amend their designation to
include official weighing services. Section 79a of the USGSA authorizes
the Secretary to designate authority to perform official weighing to an
agency providing official inspection services within a specified
geographic area, if such agency is qualified under section 79 of the
USGSA. GIPSA evaluated information regarding the designation criteria
in section 79 of the USGSA and determined that Detroit is qualified to
provide official weighing services in their currently assigned
geographic area.
Detroit's designation is amended to include Class X or Class Y
weighing within their assigned geographic area, effective October 18,
2013 to March 31, 2016.
Interested persons may obtain official services by contacting
Detroit at (810) 404-3786.
