7 CFR Part 457

[Docket ID FCIC-21-0002]
RIN 0563-AC73


Common Crop Insurance Regulations; Small Grains Crop Insurance 
Provisions; Corrections

AGENCY: Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, U.S. Department of 
Agriculture (USDA).

ACTION: Correcting Amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On June 25, 2021, the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation 
revised the Common Crop Insurance Regulations; Small Grains Crop 
Insurance Provisions. That final rule included a typographical error in 
an amendatory instruction resulting in change that could not be made in 
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This document makes those 
corrections.

DATES: Effective date: July 22, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Francie Tolle; telephone (816) 926-
7730; email [email protected]. Persons with disabilities who

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Small Grains Crop Insurance Provisions in 7 CFR 457.101 were 
revised by a final rule published in the Federal Register on June 25, 
2021 (86 FR 33485-33491). This document makes the changes that were not 
incorporated, when the other changes in the final rule were made in the 
CFR, due to a typographical error. There was an incorrect reference in 
the amendatory language that referenced paragraphs (c)(2)(v) 
introductory text and (c)(2)(v)(A), (B), (D), and (E) in section 7 of 
the small grains crop insurance provisions. Section 7 does not have a 
paragraph (c). The correct references are paragraphs (a)(2)(v) 
introductory text and (a)(2)(v)(A), (B), (D), and (E). This document 
makes the corrections to revise those paragraphs in paragraph (a)(2)(v) 
as intended by the final rule.

List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 457

    Acreage allotments, Crop insurance, Reporting and recordkeeping 
requirements.

    Accordingly, 7 CFR part 457 is corrected by making the following 
amendments:

2. In Sec.  457.101, in section 7, revise paragraphs (a)(2)(v) 
introductory text and (a)(2)(v)(A), (B), (D), and (E) to read as 
follows:


Sec.  457.101   Small grains crop insurance provisions.

* * * * *
7. Insurance Period.
* * * * *
    (a) * * *
    (2) * * *
    (v) Whenever the Special Provisions designate only a spring type, 
any winter barley, oat, or wheat acreage will not be insured unless you 
request such coverage on or before the spring sales closing date, and 
we inspect and give written confirmation that the acreage has an 
adequate stand in the spring to produce the yield used to determine 
your production guarantee. However, if we fail to inspect the acreage 
by the spring final planting date, insurance will attach as specified 
in section 7(a)(2)(v)(C).
    (A) Your request for coverage must include the location and number 
of acres of winter barley, oats, or wheat.
    (B) The winter barley, oats, or wheat will be insured as a spring 
type for the purpose of the production guarantee, premium, projected 
price, and harvest price, if applicable.
* * * * *
    (D) Any such winter barley, oats, or wheat acreage that is damaged 
after it is accepted for insurance but before the spring final planting 
date, to the extent that producers in the area would normally not 
further care for the crop, must be replanted to a spring type of the 
insured crop unless we agree it is not practical to replant.
    (E) If winter-planted acreage is not to be insured it must be 
recorded on the acreage report as uninsured winter-planted acreage.
