Agriculture.
ACTION: Correcting amendments.
AGENCY:
The Commodity Credit
Corporation (CCC) revised the
Conservation Stewardship Program
(CSP) regulation in the final rule
published in the Federal Register on
October 9, 2020, in response to public
comments. Changes were published in
the final rule that revised the definition
for resource-conserving crop. As part of
a recent review, a technical error in the
definition of ‘‘resource-conserving crop’’
was discovered. This document corrects
the error. In addition, there was an
inadvertent error and the definition for
‘‘resource-conserving crop rotation’’
needs to be reinstated; the definition
remains unchanged from the interim
rule as published in the Federal
Register on November 12, 2019.
DATES: Effective: August 3, 2021.

Persons with disabilities who require
alternative means for communication
should contact the USDA Target Center
at (202) 720–2600 (voice).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CCC
revised the definition for ‘‘resourceconserving crop’’ in 7 CFR 1470.3 in the
final rule published in the Federal
Register on October 9, 2020 (85 FR
63993–64003). As part of a recent
review, a technical error in the
definition of ‘‘resource-conserving crop’’
was discovered. This document corrects
the error.
CCC previously revised the definition
for ‘‘resource-conserving crop rotation’’
in 7 CFR 1470.3 in the interim rule
published in the Federal Register on
November 12, 2019 (84 FR 60883–
60900). It appears that when the
definition for ‘‘resource-conserving
crop’’ was revised in October that the
definition for ‘‘resource-conserving crop
rotation’’ was inadvertently removed.
This document reinstates the definition
for ‘‘resource-conserving crop rotation’’
as it appeared in the November 2019
interim rule.

This action amends the Class
D airspace and Class E airspace at
Columbus, OH, and revokes the Class E

various airports are also being updated
to coincide with the FAA’s aeronautical
database.
