# 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.”
