        <RULE_TITLE>Export Credit Guarantee Programs: Elimination of Intermediate Term Guarantee (GSM-103) Program and Supplier Credit Guarantee Program; Amend Regulations for Export Credit Guarantee (GSM-102) Program </RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Under the provisions of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008, regulation changes will incorporate updates to the Export Credit Guarantee Programs.  The purpose is to repeal all reference to the GSM-103 program and the Supplier Credit Guarantee Program, and to incorporate improvements and changes to the implementation and operation of the GSM-102 program.

The improvements to the GSM-102 program over the last 25 years of its operation will be incorporated into the proposed updated regulations.  USDA will incorporate program changes that resulted from automation of the sales registration process; changes to program announcements; the establishment of regional programs and a fee payment deadline; and changes to data requirements for evidence of export and claims processing, submission, and payment.  USDA needs to add and refine definitions within the regulations and clarify the examples provided within the regulations on claims and pro-rata payments.]]></ABSTRACT>
