SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The final regulation that is the subject 

of this correction revised the Common 

Crop Insurance Regulations, Basic 

Provisions and applicable Crop 

Provisions, including the Cotton Crop 

Insurance Provisions. In addition, FCIC 

revised various Crop Provisions, 

including the Macadamia Nut Crop 

Insurance Provisions, to correct specific 

references to the revised Common Crop 

Insurance Regulations, Basic Provisions. 

It was published March 30, 2010 (75 FR 

15778–15891). 

Need for Correction 

As published, the final regulation 

contained errors which may prove to be 

misleading and which need to be 

clarified. Section 10(d) of the Cotton 

Crop Insurance Provisions mistakenly 

included language that is no longer 

accurate. Language in section 10(d) 

referring to the quality adjustment 

parameters listed in the Special 

Provisions and to the date the last bale 

from the unit is classed or delivered is 

not necessary since the basis for quality 

adjustment is the Upland Cotton 

National Average Loan Rate determined 

by the Farm Service Agency. 

Additionally, the use of the word 

‘‘quotation’’ in the term ‘‘price quotation’’ 

is no longer accurate or necessary. FCIC 

is replacing the term ‘‘price quotation’’ 

in section 10(d) with the term ‘‘price.’’ 

The introductory text of the 

Macadamia Nut Crop Insurance 

Provisions mistakenly included a 

reference to the 2011 and succeeding 

crop years. The applicability date for the 

final rule stated ‘‘The changes will apply 

for the 2011 and succeeding crop years 

for all crops with a 2011 contract change 

date on or after April 30, 2010, and for 

2012 and succeeding crop years for all 

crops with a 2011 contract change date 

prior to April 30, 2010.’’ The 2011 

contract change date for the Macadamia 

Nut Crop Insurance Provisions is 

August 31, 2010, which is prior to April 

30, 2011. Therefore, this specific 

provision should reference the 2012 and 

succeeding crop years.
