Sec.  1410.62  Miscellaneous.

    (a) Except as otherwise provided in this part, in the case of death, 
incompetency, or disappearance of any participant, any payments due 
under this part shall be paid to the participant's successor(s) under 
part 707 of this title.
    (b) Unless otherwise specified in this part, payments under this 
part shall be subject to the requirements of part 12 of this title 
concerning highly erodible land and wetland conservation and payments.
    (c) Any remedies permitted CCC under this part shall be in addition 
to any other remedy, including, but not limited to, criminal remedies, 
or actions for damages in favor of CCC, or the United States, as may be 
permitted by law; provided further the Deputy Administrator may add to 
the contract such additional terms as needed to enforce these 
regulations that shall be binding on the parties and may be enforced to 
the same degree as provisions of these regulations.
    (d) Absent a scheme or device to defeat the purpose of the program, 
when an owner loses control of CRP acreage due to foreclosure and the 
new owner chooses not to continue the contract in accordance with Sec.  
1410.51, refunds shall not be required from any participant on the 
contract to the extent that the Deputy Administrator determines that 
forgiving such repayment is appropriate in order to provide fair and 
equitable treatment.
    (e) Cropland enrolled in CRP shall be classified as cropland for the 
time period enrolled in CRP and, after the time period of enrollment, 
may be removed from such classification upon a determination by the 
county committee that such land no longer meets the definition in part 
718 of this title.
    (f) Research projects may be submitted by the State committee and 
authorized by the Deputy Administrator to further the purposes of CRP. 
The research projects must include objectives that are consistent with 
this part, provide economic and environmental information, not adversely 
affect local agricultural markets, and be conducted and monitored by a 
bona fide research entity, as determined by the Deputy Administrator.
