Subject:

Subpart X - Interpretations of Statutory Provisions, Policy Provisions, and Procedures
Background

The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation (FCIC) finalized the General and Administrative Regulation, Subpart X - Interpretations of Statutory Provisions, Policy Provisions, and Procedures, to incorporate interpretations of procedures previously issued and administered in accordance with Manager’s Bulletin MGR–05–018, and to provide a mechanism for interpretations of policy provisions that are not codified in the Code of Federal Regulations.

The revisions provide requestors with information on how to request a final agency determination or an interpretation of FCIC procedures within one administrative regulation and bring consistency and clarity to the processes used and existing provisions.

Action

The regulation can be found on the RMA website at:

In the Federal Register at:
