 The Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission Policies for 2008 Base Year of Payments For 2008 the Virginia Tobacco Indemnification and Community Revitalization Commission ("the Commission") has authorized payments from Phase I Funds to flue-cured producers and burley producers based on tobacco production in the 1998 Crop Year. Definition of Producer For purposes of determining the eligibility for payments for 2008, the Commission has defined a "producer" (or grower) as a person or entity actively engaged in planting, growing, harvesting, and marketing of flue-cured or burley tobacco, or who shares in the variable expenses of producing the crop, and is therefore entitled to share in the revenue derived from marketing the crop and who produces the crop on a farm where tobacco was produced for the 1998 crop year. For 2008, the Commission has authorized payments from Phase I funds to flue-cured and burley quota owners who owned quota during the 1999 Crop Year. Quota owners who owned flue-cured or burley tobacco quota as of July 1, 1999, may be eligible for payment.
