Correcting amendment.

SUMMARY:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This document corrects final regulations that consolidated and clarified the servicing policies of the Farm Service Agency's Minor Loan Programs published in the Federal Register on December 16, 2003. Section 772.9(a)(3) as promulgated incorrectly states, “An exchange in accordance with § 772.7(b) has been concluded.” This document replaces the reference to § 772.7(b) with the correct reference to § 772.8.

For the reason stated above, 7 CFR 772.9 is corrected by making the following amendment:

PART 772—[AMENDED]

1. The authority citation continues to read as follows:

Authority: 5 U.S.C. 301, 7 U.S.C. 1989, 25 U.S.C. 490.

2. Revise paragraph 772.9(a)(3) to read as follows:

§ 772.9

Releases.

(3) An exchange in accordance with § 772.8 has been concluded.

Signed in Washington, DC, on February 11, 2004.
