| E8-12226 | Proposed United States Standards for Grades of Olive Oil and Olive-Pomace Oil | Notice | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soliciting comments on the proposed revision to the United States Standards for Grades of Olive Oil. The proposal includes two major groups of oil: "olive oil," produced from olives by mechanical means; and "olive-pomace oil," produced using heat and a solvent to separate the oil from the olive-pomace remaining after olive oil is produced. The proposal includes new product descriptions, definitions, and requirements for the following grade designations: "U.S. Extra Virgin Olive Oil," "U.S. Virgin Olive Oil," "U.S. Lampante Virgin Olive Oil--Not Fit for Human Consumption," "U.S. Refined Olive Oil," "U.S. Olive Oil," "U.S. Olive-Pomace Oil," "U.S. Refined Olive-Pomace Oil," and "U.S. Crude Olive-Pomace Oil." The proposed revisions to the grade standards are intended to provide a uniform language for commerce and the use of the standards would be voluntary. The proposed standards include objective criteria for determining quality and purity among the grades of olive oil and olive- pomace oil, thereby facilitating the marketing of olive oil and olive- pomace oil. | 2008-06-02 | 2008 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/06/02/E8-12226/proposed-united-states-standards-for-grades-of-olive-oil-and-olive-pomace-oil | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-06-02/pdf/E8-12226.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) of the Department of Agriculture (USDA) is soliciting comments on the proposed revision to the United States Standards for Grades of Olive Oil.
