Background

Many state and local areas continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and may otherwise be unable to meet certain policy requirements due to concerns of spreading COVID-19. Beginning in March, the Risk Management Agency (RMA) began issuing Manager’s Bulletins to provide program flexibilities in response to COVID-19.

Background

The Risk Management Agency (RMA) has received several questions about the Wildfire Hurricane Indemnity Program (WHIP) and Wildfire Hurricane Indemnity Program+ (WHIP+) administered by USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA). Specifically, RMA has been asked if the Occurrence Loss Option (OLO) available under the Nursery Value Select (NVS) pilot program can be used to meet linkage requirements under WHIP and WHIP+.

Background

Many state and local governments have issued “stay at home” orders in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which may preclude agents from meeting with policyholders or potential policyholders to obtain signatures associated with various reporting requirements, written agreements, and the purchase of new coverage or adjustments to current policy elections.
