PART 784--LAMB MEAT ADJUSTMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 784.7  Year 2 and Year 3 time and method for application.

    (a) To receive ``Year 2'' and ``Year 3'' benefits, as described in 
Sec. 784.1, at rates set out in Sec. 784.9, sheep and lamb operations 
may obtain an application, Form FSA-383 (Lamb Meat Adjustment Assistance 
Program Payment Application), in person, by mail, by telephone, or by 
facsimile from any county FSA office. In addition, applicants may 
download a copy of the Form FSA-383 at http://www.fsa.usda.gov/dafp/
psd/.
    (b) Sheep and lamb operations must have the certification section of 
the application Form FSA-383 completed prior to submission of the form 
to the county office.
    (c) A request for ``Year 2'' and ``Year 3'' benefits under this part 
must be submitted on a completed Form FSA-383. The Form FSA-383 should 
be submitted to the FSA county office serving the county where the sheep 
and lamb operation is located but, in any case, must be received by the 
FSA county office by the close of business on August 15, 2001, if 
applying for ``Year 2'' benefits, and by the close of business on August 
15, 2002, if applying for ``Year 3'' benefits. Applications not received 
by the respective deadlines will be returned as not having been timely 
filed and the sheep and lamb operation will not be eligible for the 
benefits which were the subject of the failed application.
    (d) The sheep and lamb operation requesting benefits under this part 
must certify to the accuracy of the information provided in their 
application for benefits. All information provided is subject to 
verification and spot checks by FSA. Refusal to allow FSA or any other 
agency of the Department of Agriculture to verify any information 
provided will result in a determination of ineligibility. Data furnished 
by the applicant will be used to determine eligibility for program 
benefits. Furnishing the data is voluntary; however, without it program 
benefits will not be approved. Providing a false certification to the 
Government is punishable by imprisonment, fines and other penalties.
