Title: Disaster Declaration and Designation 
Abstract: This rule will move regulations used by the Farm Service Agency (FSA) from chapter XVIII of the Code of Federal Regulations, formerly used by the predecessor to FSA, the Farmers Home Administration, to chapter VII, the chapter where most FSA rules are promulgated. This rule also clarifies and simplifies procedures for identifying disaster areas, reorganizes provisions in a more logical manner, and removes administrative provisions. The intent of this rule is to update regulations to match the current USDA structure.
