    (b) Proof of completion. Participants shall submit to FSA, at the local county office, the information needed to establish the extent of the performance of approved practices and compliance with applicable program provisions.

    (c) Payment request deadline. The time limits for submission of information shall be determined by the Deputy Administrator.
