Short Statement: This is a reinstatement and restructuring of a previously approved collection. In order to approve a project under the FGP, the statue requires that CCC determine the project will primarily benefit U.S. agricultural commodity exports; 7 CFR 1493 Subpart C imposed this analysis on the participant. The final rule will shift this burden from the participant to U.S. government staff, thus dramatically reducing overall burden on respondents.
