■ 1. The authority citation for 7 CFR 

part 1485 continues to read as follows: 

Authority: 7 U.S.C. 5623, 5662–5663 and 

sec. 203, 402–403, Pub. L. 95–501, as 

amended, 92 Stat 1685 and sec. 1302, Pub. 

L. 103–66, 107 Stat. 330. 

■ 2. Revise the part heading for part 

1485 to read as set forth above. 

■ 3. Revise paragraph (b) of § 1485.19 to 

read as follows: 

§ 1485.19 Advances. 

* * * * * 

(b) Exception. A MAP Participant for 

generic promotion activities may 

request an advance of MAP funds from 

CCC, provided the MAP Participant 

meets the criteria for advance payments 

set forth in the applicable parts of this 

title (e.g., 7 CFR Parts 3015, 3016, and 

3019). CCC will not approve any request 

for an advance submitted later than 3 

months after the end of a MAP 

Participant’s program year. At any given 

time, total payments advanced shall not 

exceed 40 percent of a MAP 

Participant’s approved generic activity 

budget for the program year. CCC will 

not advance funds to a MAP Participant 

for brand promotion activities. When 

approving a request for an advance, CCC 

may require the MAP Participant to 

carry adequate fidelity bond coverage 

when the absence of such coverage is 

considered to create an unacceptable 

risk to the interests of the MAP. 

Whether an ‘‘unacceptable risk’’ exists 

in a particular situation will depend on 

a number of factors, such as, for 

example, the Participant’s history of 

performance in MAP; the Participant’s 

perceived financial stability and 

resources; and any other factors 

presented in the particular situation that 

may reflect on the Participant’s 

responsibility or the riskiness of its 

activities.
