Risk Management Agency
Title: Subpart U--Ineligibility for Programs under the Federal Crop
Insurance Act.
OMB Control Number: 0563-0085.
Summary of Collection: The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation
(FCIC) is a wholly-owned Government corporation created February 16,
1938 (7 U.S.C. 1501). The program was amended previously, but Public
Law 96-365, dated September 26, 1980, provided for nationwide expansion
of a comprehensive crop insurance program. The Federal Crop Insurance
Act, as amended in later years further expanded this role of the crop
insurance program to be the principal tool for risk management by
producers of agricultural commodities.
Need and Use of the Information: The purpose of collecting the
information is to ensure persons that are ineligible for benefits under
the Federal crop insurance program are accurately identified as such
and do not obtain benefits to which they are not eligible. A person can
become ineligible for benefits for three reasons: (1) Debt on unpaid
premium or overpaid indemnity (information provided by AIP; (2) Debt on
unpaid CAT fee (information provided by AIP); and (3) Debarment/
disqualification/suspension, including but not limited to judgement,
civil fines, etc. The Federal Crop Insurance Corporation and AIPs use
the information collected to determine whether a person seeking to
obtain Federal crop insurance coverage are ineligible for such coverage
according to the statutory/regulatory mandates identified. Failure to
collect the applicable information could result in unearned Federal
benefits being issued.
Description of Respondents: Businesses or other for-profits.
Number of Respondents: 14.
Frequency of Responses: On occasions; Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 2,647.
