    The Administrator, Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), today 
accepted a petition filed by a group of shrimp producers in Arizona. 
The Administrator will determine within 40 days whether or not imports 
of shrimp contributed importantly to a decline in domestic producer 
prices by more than 20 percent during the marketing year beginning 
January 2002 and ending December 2003. If the determination is 
positive, all Arizona shrimp producers will be eligible to apply to the 
Farm Service Agency for technical assistance at no cost and adjustment 
assistance payments.
