Instructions for Completing Form FGIS 921-2

“INSPECTION REPORT – INSECTS IN GRAIN.”

1. Name and address of the shipper.

2. Location of elevator where the barge, vessel or carriers (railcars, containers) were loaded.

3. Type of grain/commodity examined for insects.

3. Total quantity (pounds or metric tons) of the grain/commodity that was loaded on the barge or vessel, or the number of containers and/or hopper cars.

3. If applicable grain inspection certificate number representing the containers/vessel shown on this report.

3. Indicate if this “Insects in Grain Report” is the original or has been corrected.

3. Destination country for the grain/commodity.

3. Name of the vessel or barge identification number/name.

3. Dates the loading of the barge/vessel, unit train, container booking started and completed.

3. Sublot Number or Carrier Identification (e.g., container, railcar, or truck).  List individual carrier IDs separately in the space provided on front of form.  If the number of Sublots or carrier ID’s exceed the available spaces, then use the front of another 921-2 for remainder of sublots or carrier ID’s. Use the back of the form for unit trains to list the railcar ID’s associated with the sublot listed on front of the form.”

3. Applicable for containers only. Date the grain/commodity was loaded and examined for insects.

3. Stowage (Hold Nos.), location where the grain/commodity for that particular sublot is stowed.

3. Enter the approximate quantity (pounds) of the grain/commodity in the bargelot or sublot. For railcars and containers, use the actual weight of the lot or use the appropriate carrier terms (e.g., hopper, carlot, unit train, and container).

3. Number of live insects found in the corresponding sublot or carrier (if any).

3. Check the box if the grain/commodity examined meets the FGIS criteria for “Infested” or “Sample Grade” (SG) because of live insect infestation. Mark this column only as it applies to insects, not any other SG condition.

Note: The FGIS designation “Sample Grade” is applicable to beans, lentils, peas, and rice when infested with live weevils or other live insects injurious to stored grain. Sample Grade is also applicable to lots of milled rice that contain dead insects. Do not report milled rice lots that are “Sample Grade” due to dead insects. The FGIS designation of “Infested” is applied to the grains, barley, canola, corn, flaxseed, mixed grain, oats, rye sorghum, soybeans, sunflower seed, triticale, and wheat when they are infested with live weevils or other live insects injurious to stored grain.

3. Name of any insect found in the corresponding sublot or carrier. Identify by using the insect’s common name (e.g., Rice Weevil, Red Flour Beetle). DO NOT USE TERMS THE TERMS “BRAN BUG” OR “OLI.”

3. Place any remarks, if needed, in this section. The reverse of the form may be used if additional space is needed.

3. Name of inspector completing this form along with the name of the official service provider or the official service provider’s alpha identifier.

Note Section 19 - 27: Complete these sections for fumigation of vessels where official personnel are present to witness the application of the fumigant. For containers or railcars that are fumigated when official personnel are not physically present to witness the fumigation, the required fumigation documentation may be attached to the form.

3. Date that the grain/commodity in the noted sublot/barge/railcar/container was fumigated.

3. Fumigation method used to treat the grain/commodity. (Leave this space blank)

3. The stowage space (e.g., hold numbers, container number, rail car number) that was fumigated.

3. Type of chemical used to fumigate the grain/commodity.

3. The concentration level of the fumigant used.

3. Length of time the stowage area (e.g., vessel holds, railcar, container, and barge) needs to be secured for a proper treatment of the grain/commodity.

3. The air temperature at the time of fumigation.

3. Total quantity of grain/commodity fumigated expressed in metric tons, if known. For railcars and containers, use the actual weight or use the appropriate carrier terms (e.g., hopper, carlot, unit train, and container).

3. Name of the inspector who verified the fumigation process. Complete this block only if official personnel were present to observe the fumigation.
