SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    This document corrects the final regulations published on January 
26, 2006 (71 FR 4231-4234) to provide assistance to producers and 
first-handlers of the 2004 crop of cottonseed in counties declared a 
disaster by the President due to 2004 hurricanes and tropical storms. 
In the final rule, section 1427.1103(b) mistakenly refers to cotton, 
rather than cottonseed, in stating that ``Cotton must not have been 
destroyed or damaged by fire, flood, or other events such that its loss 
or damage was compensated by other local, State, or Federal government 
or private or public insurance or disaster relief payments'' in order 
to be eligible under the Cottonseed Payment Program. This correction 
changes the term ``cotton'' to ``cottonseed.''
