| 7:7:7.1.1.4.10.0.1.1 | 7 | Agriculture | VII | D | 759 | PART 759—DISASTER DESIGNATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS | § 759.1 Administration. | FSA | (a) This part will be administered under the general supervision and direction of the Administrator, Farm Service Agency (FSA). (b) FSA representatives do not have authority to modify or waive any of the provisions of the regulations of this part as amended or supplemented. (c) The Administrator will take any action required by the regulations of this part that the Administrator determines has not already been taken. The Administrator will also: (1) Correct or require correction of any action taken that is not in accordance with the regulations of this part; or (2) Require withholding taking any action that is not in accordance with this part. (d) No provision or delegation in these regulations will preclude the Administrator or a designee or other such person, from determining any question arising under this part, or from reversing or modifying any determination made under this part. (e) Absent a delegation to the contrary, this part will be administered by the Deputy Administrator for Farm Programs of FSA on behalf of the Administrator of FSA or the Secretary, but nothing in this part will inhibit the ability of the Administrator of FSA or the person holding the equivalent position in the event of a reorganization to delegate the functions of DAFP under these regulations to another person. Likewise, nothing shall inhibit the ability of the Secretary to reassign any duties with respect to the designations of disasters under this part. | ||||||
| 7:7:7.1.1.4.10.0.1.2 | 7 | Agriculture | VII | D | 759 | PART 759—DISASTER DESIGNATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS | § 759.2 Purpose. | FSA | (a) This part specifies the types of incidents that can result in an area being determined a disaster area, which under other regulations makes qualified farmers in such areas eligible for Emergency loans (EM) or eligible for such other assistance that may be available, based on Secretarial disaster designations. Nothing in this part overrides provision of those regulations that govern the actual administration and availability of the disaster assistance regulations. (b) This part specifies the responsibility of the County Emergency Board (CEB), State Emergency Board (SEB), and the State Executive Director (SED) in regard to Secretarial Designations with regards to disasters. It also addresses matters relating to the handling of a Presidential declaration of disaster or the imposition of a USDA quarantine by the Secretary with respect to triggering the availability of EM loans. | ||||||
| 7:7:7.1.1.4.10.0.1.3 | 7 | Agriculture | VII | D | 759 | PART 759—DISASTER DESIGNATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS | § 759.3 Abbreviations and definitions. | FSA | (a) Abbreviations. The following abbreviations apply to this part. CEB means the County Emergency Board. CED means the County Executive Director. DAFP means the Deputy Administrator for Farm Programs of the Farm Service Agency. EM means Emergency loan administered under 7 CFR part 764. FSA means the Farm Service Agency. LAR means the Loss Assessment Report. SEB means the State Emergency Board. SED means the State Executive Director. USDA means the United States Department of Agriculture. (b) Definitions. The following definitions apply to this part. Administrator means the Administrator of FSA. Contiguous county is used in reference to a primary county as defined in this section. A contiguous county is any county whose boundary touches at any point with that of the primary county. For programs other than the EM Program, disaster assistance regulations will specify whether benefits will be available only in the primary counties or also in the contiguous counties. For the EM Program that issue is addressed in § 759.6, unless specified otherwise in the disaster assistance regulations for other programs or in § 759.6 for the EM Program, only the “primary” county will be considered the qualifying “disaster county.” Therefore, if the disaster assistance regulations specify that they cover the disaster area and contiguous counties, then the only eligible counties would be the primary county and those contiguous to that county. Coverage would not include coverage of those counties that are in turn contiguous to those counties that are contiguous to the primary county. County is used when referring to a geographical area, a local administrative subdivision of a State or a similar political subdivision of the United States generally considered to be in county usage, for example, it includes an area referred to as a “county” or “parish.” Except where otherwise specified, the use of the term county or similar political subdivision is for administrative purposes only. CEB is comprised of the rep… | ||||||
| 7:7:7.1.1.4.10.0.1.4 | 7 | Agriculture | VII | D | 759 | PART 759—DISASTER DESIGNATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS | § 759.5 Secretarial disaster area determination and notification process. | FSA | (a) U.S. Drought Monitor. With respect to drought and without requiring an LAR: (1) If any portion of a county is physically located in an area with a Drought Monitor Intensity Classification value of D3 (drought-extreme) or higher during any part of the growing season of the crops affected by the disaster in the county, then the county will be designated a disaster area by the Secretary. (2) If any portion of a county meets the threshold Drought Monitor Intensity Classification value of D2 (drought-severe) for at least 8 consecutive weeks during the growing season of affected crops, then the county will be designated a disaster area by the Secretary. (b) CEB and SEB recommendations. In instances where counties have been impacted by a disaster but the county has not been designated a disaster area under the provisions of paragraph (a) of this section, CEB will make a disaster designation recommendation request to SEB when a disaster has resulted in severe production losses. The determination of the sufficiency of the production losses will be governed by the provisions in paragraph (c) of this section. The CEB may make such efforts as are needed to identify counties that have been impacted and had such production losses. A farmer, Indian Tribal Council, or local governing body may initiate the process by reporting production losses or drought conditions to CEB and suggesting that there be a recommendation in favor of designating a county as a disaster area. Recommendations by a CEB in favor of a disaster designation by a CEB under this paragraph are subject to the following: (1) A LAR is required as part of a CEB disaster designation request. CEB will submit a disaster designation request with a LAR to SEB for review and recommendation for approval by the Secretary. CEB's written request and SEB recommendation must be submitted within three months of the last day of the occurrence of a natural disaster. (2) If SEB determines a qualifying natural disaster and loss have occurred, SEB will forward the recom… | ||||||
| 7:7:7.1.1.4.10.0.1.5 | 7 | Agriculture | VII | D | 759 | PART 759—DISASTER DESIGNATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS | § 759.6 EM to be made available. | FSA | (a) For purposes of the EM Program under part 764, subpart I, of this chapter, a county will be considered an eligible disaster area as designated by FSA for coverage of the EM Program as follows: (1) Secretarial designations. When production losses meet the requirements in § 759.5 and the county has been designated as a disaster area for that reason, or when the discretionary exception to production losses for EM under § 759.5(d) has been exercised, the primary and contiguous counties will be areas in which otherwise eligible producers can receive EM loans. (2) Physical loss notification. When only qualifying physical losses occur, the SED will submit a request to the FSA Administrator to make a determination that a natural disaster has occurred in a county, resulting in severe physical losses. If the FSA Administrator determines that such a natural disaster has occurred, then EM can be made available to eligible farmers for physical losses only in the primary county (the county that was the subject of that determination) and the counties contiguous to that county. (3) USDA quarantine. Any quarantine imposed by the Secretary of Agriculture under the Plant Protection Act or the animal quarantine laws, as defined in section 2509 of the Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990, automatically authorizes EM for production and physical losses resulting from the quarantine in a primary county (the county in which the quarantine was in force) and (where the quarantine effects extend beyond that county) the counties contiguous to that primary county. (4) Presidential declaration. Whenever the President declares a Major Disaster Declaration or an Emergency Declaration, FSA will make EM available to eligible applicants in declared and contiguous counties, provided: (i) The Presidential declaration is not solely for Category A or Category B Public Assistance or Hazard Mitigation Grant Assistance, and (ii) The Presidential Major Disaster declaration is for losses due to severe, general disaster co… |
