Abstract

This final rule amends the current provisions of regulations on emergency livestock assistance to delete regulations for obsolete programs and to provide new terms and conditions for the Livestock Assistance Program (LAP) authorized in the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 1999 (1999 Act). The LAP will provide emergency feed assistance for losses suffered by livestock producers in calendar year 1998, in counties that have suffered a 40 percent or greater loss of normal grazing as a result of a natural disaster. Assistance to the producer will be based on the number of eligible livestock owned by the producer and the producer's percent of grazing losses. The 1999 Act limits expenditures of the program to $200 million. Payment rates will not be determined until a sign-up for the program is completed.
