Common Crop Insurance Regulations, Mint Crop Insurance 
Provisions; Correction

AGENCY: Federal Crop Insurance Corporation, USDA.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document contains a correction to the final regulation 
which was published Thursday, May 3, 2007 (72 FR 24523-24530). The 
regulation pertains to the insurance of mint.

DATES: Effective Date: June 4, 2007.

Specialist, Product Management, Product Administration and Standards 
Division, Risk Management Agency, United States Department of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The final regulation that is the subject of this correction was 
intended to convert the mint 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 an error which may 
prove to be misleading and needs to be clarified. Section 13(e)(3) 
mistakenly includes a reference to section 8(d). However, there is no 
section 8(d). The correct reference should be to the provisions 
contained in section 8(b), which provides the requirements for when a 
crop inspection must be made before insurance coverage begins.

List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 457

    Crop Insurance, Mint, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
