The United States Warehouse Act
The USWA allows the Secretary of Agriculture to license warehouse operators who store certain agricultural products. FSA is proposing to create a voluntary USWA licensing program for processed agricultural products, such as AJC, stored in climate controlled cooler and freezer warehouses. Such licensed warehouses would have the authority under the USWA to issue federal negotiable warehouse receipts.
The FSA licensing proposal is available for review.
