Office of the Secretary, USDA.
Correcting amendments.
The Secretary of Agriculture
implemented the Coronavirus Food
Assistance Program (CFAP), which
provides assistance to agricultural
producers impacted by the effects of the
COVID–19 outbreak, through a final rule
published in the Federal Register on
May 21, 2020. This correction clarifies
the eligibility of barley and livestock.
DATES: Effective September 21, 2020.

William L. Beam; telephone: (202) 720–
3175; email: Bill.Beam@usda.gov.
Persons with disabilities who require
alternative means for communication
should contact the USDA Target Center
at (202) 720–2600 (voice).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
document corrects the CFAP regulations
in 7 CFR part 9, which were
implemented in the final rule that was
published in the Federal Register on
May 21, 2020 (85 FR 30825–30835).
This is the fourth set of corrections. The
first set of corrections was published in
the Federal Register on June 12, 2020
(85 FR 35799–35800), the second set of
corrections was published in the
Federal Register on July 10, 2020 (85 FR
41328–41330), and the third set of
corrections was published in the
Federal Register on August 14, 2020 (85
FR 49593–49594). This document
augments those corrections.
This document corrects 7 CFR 9.1(a)
to clarify the meaning of ‘‘produced in
the United States’’ as it relates to
imported livestock. CFAP payments to
livestock producers are based on the
sum of two calculations. The first
calculation is intended to compensate
producers for losses due to price
declines that occurred between midJanuary 2020 and mid-April 2020, and
is based on livestock sold between
January 15, 2020, and April 15, 2020.
The second calculation is intended to
address on-going market disruptions
and assist with the transition to a more
orderly marketing system. It is based on
the producer’s highest livestock
inventory owned on a date between
April 16, 2020, and May 14, 2020. This
document specifies that to be
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00002

considered ‘‘produced in the United
States,’’ livestock sold between January
15, 2020, and April 15, 2020, must have
been physically located in the United
States as of January 15, 2020, and must
have remained in the United States until
they were sold. For imported livestock
inventory owned between April 16,
2020, and May 14, 2020, ‘‘produced in
the United States’’ means that the
livestock must have been physically
located in the United States on the
applicable date for which the producer
is reporting their highest owned
inventory, because producers have been
incurring and continue to incur
additional marketing costs related to the
COVID–19 pandemic for those livestock.
This document amends the definition
of ‘‘non-specialty crop’’ in § 9.2 and
Table 2 in § 9.5(h) to specify that CFAP
eligibility for barley is not limited only
to malting barley. All barley is eligible
for CFAP assistance.
The changes in this document are
consistent with the original intent of
USDA in creating and administering
CFAP and are not expected to increase
expected costs.
List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 9
Agricultural commodities,
Agriculture, Disaster assistance,
Indemnity payments.
Accordingly, 7 CFR part 9 is corrected
by making the following correcting
amendments:
PART 9—CORONAVIRUS FOOD

1. The authority citation for part 9
continues to read as follows:
■
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 714b and 714c; and
Division B, Title I, Pub. L. 116–136.
2. In § 9.1, revise paragraph (a) to read
as follows.
■
§ 9.1
Applicability and administration.
(a) This part specifies the eligibility
requirements and payment calculations
for the Coronavirus Food Assistance
Program (CFAP). CFAP will provide
payments with respect to commodities
that have been significantly impacted by
the effects of the COVID–19 outbreak.
Payments will be made with respect to
only commodities produced in the
United States; commodities other than
livestock that are imported into the
United States may not be used to
determine any payment made under this
part. For livestock, ‘‘produced in the
United States’’ means physically located
in the United States:
(1) On January 15, 2020, and
remaining in the United States until
sold for livestock sold between January
15, 2020, and April 15, 2020; or

AGENCY:
The FAA is adopting a new
airworthiness directive (AD) for all
Airbus SAS Model A319–151N and
–153N; A320–251N, –252N, and –253N;
and A321–251N, –252N, –253N,
–251NX, –252NX, and –253NX
airplanes. This AD was prompted by a
report indicating that Kathon FP 1.5
biocide added to fuel and running
through an airplane’s engines can lead
to engine performance degradation. This
AD requires removing Kathon FP 1.5
biocide from the fuel tanks and engines
and prohibits operation of an airplane
with Kathon FP 1.5 biocide in a fuel
tank or engine, as specified in a
European Union Aviation Safety Agency
(EASA) AD 2020–0176, which is
incorporated by reference. The FAA is
issuing this AD to address the unsafe
condition on these products.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Discussion
The EASA, which is the Technical
Agent for the Member States of the
European Union, has issued EASA AD
2020–0176, dated August 5, 2020 (also
referred to as the Mandatory Continuing
Airworthiness Information, or ‘‘the
MCAI’’), to correct an unsafe condition
for all Airbus SAS Model A319–151N
and –153N; A320–251N, –252N, and
–253N; and A321–251N, –252N, –253N,
–251NX, –252NX, and –253NX
airplanes.
This AD was prompted by a report
indicating that Kathon FP 1.5 biocide
added to fuel and running through an
airplane’s engines can lead to engine
performance degradation. The FAA is
issuing this AD to address airplanes
operated with fuel mixed with Kathon
FP 1.5 biocide, which could result in
reduced engine performance, resulting
in reduced controllability of the
airplane. See the MCAI for additional
background information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document corrects the CFAP regulations
in 7 CFR part 9, which were implemented in the final rule that was
published in the Federal Register on May 21, 2020 (85 FR 30825-30835).
This is the fourth set of corrections. The first set of corrections was
published in the Federal Register on June 12, 2020 (85 FR 35799-35800),
the second set of corrections was published in the Federal Register on

published in the Federal Register on August 14, 2020 (85 FR 49593-
49594). This document augments those corrections.
This document corrects 7 CFR 9.1(a) to clarify the meaning of
``produced in the United States'' as it relates to imported livestock.
CFAP payments to livestock producers are based on the sum of two
calculations. The first calculation is intended to compensate producers
for losses due to price declines that occurred between mid-January 2020
and mid-April 2020, and is based on livestock sold between January 15,
2020, and April 15, 2020. The second calculation is intended to address
on-going market disruptions and assist with the transition to a more
orderly marketing system. It is based on the producer's highest
livestock inventory owned on a date between April 16, 2020, and May 14,
2020. This document specifies that to be considered ``produced in the
United States,'' livestock sold between January 15, 2020, and April 15,
2020, must have been physically located in the United States as of
January 15, 2020, and must have remained in the United States until
they were sold. For imported livestock inventory owned between April
16, 2020, and May 14, 2020, ``produced in the United States'' means
that the livestock must have been physically located in the United
States on the applicable date for which the producer is reporting their
highest owned inventory, because producers have been incurring and
continue to incur additional marketing costs related to the COVID-19
pandemic for those livestock.
This document amends the definition of ``non-specialty crop'' in
Sec. 9.2 and Table 2 in Sec. 9.5(h) to specify that CFAP eligibility
for barley is not limited only to malting barley. All barley is
eligible for CFAP assistance.
The changes in this document are consistent with the original
intent of USDA in creating and administering CFAP and are not expected
to increase expected costs.
