SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The final regulation that is the subject of this correction was 
intended to convert the pecan revenue pilot crop insurance program to a 
permanent crop insurance regulation to be used in conjunction with the 
Common Crop Insurance Policy Basic Provisions for ease of use and 
consistency of terms.

Need for Correction

    As published, the final regulation contained errors which may prove 
to be misleading and need to be clarified. In section 3 of the crop 
provisions, paragraph (g) did not specify the percentage amount that is 
considered as ``additional coverage.''
