The Federal Crop Insurance Reform and Department of Agriculture
Reorganization Act of 1994 (Pub. L. 103-354, 101 Stat. 3178), signed by
President Clinton on October 13, 1994, provides for the establishment
of RUS as successor to REA with respect to various programs, including
telecommunications programs authorized by certain statutes. On October
20, 1994, the Secretary of Agriculture issued Secretary's Memorandum
1010-1, establishing RUS and abolishing REA. Therefore, RUS is
publishing this notice implementing a rule originally published by REA.
