    (a) A redetermination of crop acreage, appraised yield, or farm-
stored production for a farm may be initiated by the county committee, 
State committee, or Deputy Administrator at any time. Such 
redeterminations may also be initiated by a producer who has an interest

appraisal of the yield of a crop or before any of the farm-stored 
production is removed from storage and upon payment of the cost of 
making such redetermination. A redetermination shall be undertaken in 
the manner prescribed by the Deputy Administrator. Such redetermination 
shall be used in lieu of any prior determination.
    (b) The county committee shall refund the payment of the cost for a 
redetermination when, because of an error in the initial determination:
