These amendments are not published for proposed rulemaking because they merely reflect changes in statutory authority enacted by the Farm Bill. They make only minor technical corrections to the regulations, which do not involve matters of agency discretion. The Farm Bill leaves no discretion to the agency for setting interest rates. Notice and public comment, therefore, are impractical, unnecessary, and contrary to the public interest.
