SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The final regulations that are the subject of this correction implemented changes mandated by the Federal Crop Insurance Act, as amended by the Agricultural Risk Protection Act of 2000, and required an earlier notice of loss for prevented planting in response to an Office of Inspector General Audit.

Need for Correction

As published, the final regulations contained a typographical error which may prove to be misleading and is in need of correcting. Section 37(a) of the Common Crop Insurance Regulations, Basic Provisions contained a cite, "section 8(b)(2)", which should have been "section 8(b)(1)."

Correction of Publication

Accordingly, the publication on Wednesday, June 25, 2003 of the final regulations at 68 FR 37697-37726 is corrected as follows:

PART 457-[CORRECTED]

§ 457.8 [Corrected]

On page 37726, in the second column, section 37(a) cites "section 8(b)(2)" which is corrected to read "section 8(b)(1)".

Signed in Washington, DC, on July 11, 2003.
