Sec. 752.14  Annual payments.

    (a) Persons on the farm having an interest in the designated acreage 
shall be eligible for an annual payment.
    (b) The annual per acre payment rates for wetlands and for adjacent 
land shall be those rates which are recommended by the county and State 
committee and approved for each county by the Deputy Administrator. If 
the wetlands are subject to a drainage easement with the United States 
Department of the Interior or a state governmental entity, the payment 
rates for such wetlands will be 80 percent of the approved county rates 
which are applicable to wetlands in the county. A listing of all 
approved rates shall be available for inspection at the county FSA 
office.
    (c) The payment shall be divided among the owner of the designated 
acreage and any other person having an interest in such acreage, 
including tenants and sharecroppers, in the manner agreed upon by them 
as representing their respective contributions to compliance with the 
agreement. The county committee shall refuse to approve an agreement if 
it determines that the proposed division of payment is not fair and 
equitable. The annual payment and the division of the payment shall be 
specified in the agreement.
