SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Common Crop Insurance Regulations in 7 CFR part 457 were 
revised by a final rule with request for comments published in the 
Federal Register on October 25, 2022 (87 FR 64365). Changes were made 
in that rule to the Walnut Crop Insurance Provisions. In reviewing the 
changes made, FCIC found an incorrect instruction in the Settlement of 
Claim section. This document makes the correction in the Walnut Crop 
Insurance Provisions.

List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 457

    Acreage allotments, Crop insurance, Reporting and recordkeeping 
requirements.

    Accordingly, 7 CFR part 457 is corrected by making the following 
amendment:

PART 457--COMMON CROP INSURANCE REGULATIONS

0
1. The authority citation for part 457 continues to read as follows:

    Authority:  7 U.S.C. 1506(l) and 1506(o).


0
2. In Sec.  457.122, in the ``Walnut Crop Provisions,'' in section 11, 
revise paragraph (d).
    The revision reads as follows:


Sec.  457.122  Walnut crop insurance provisions.

* * * * *
11. Settlement of Claim
* * * * *
    (d) Mature walnut production damaged due to an insurable cause of 
loss which occurs within the insurance period may be adjusted for 
quality based on an inspection by the Dried Fruit Association or during 
our loss adjustment process. Walnut production that has mold damage 
greater than 8 percent, based on the net delivered weight, will be 
reduced by the quality adjustment factors contained in the Special 
Provisions. If walnut production exceeds 30 percent mold damage and 
will not be sold, the production to count will be zero.
