Abstract

This interim rule amends the regulations with respect to the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) which is conducted by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) in accordance with section 196 of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 (1996 Act). Currently, the regulations specify that the Executive Vice President, CCC, or designee determines areas, prices, and yields for NAP. The regulations are being revised to inform the public that the Deputy Administrator for Farm Programs (DAFP) has been delegated the authority to determine areas, prices, and yields for NAP. The regulation has also been revised to specify that DAFP may at his discretion delegate to selected Farm Service Agency (FSA) State committees (STC's) and other FSA officials, authority to determine areas, prices, and yields for NAP. Additionally, amendments made by the interim rule specify that seed crops may be considered separate eligible crops under NAP if certain criteria is met, and provide a definition for industrial crops.
