No, it really is:

CONTACT APPROACH- An approach wherein an aircraft on an IFR flight plan,
having an air traffic control authorization, operating clear of clouds with
at least 1 mile flight visibility and a reasonable expectation of continuing
to the destination airport in those conditions, may deviate from the
instrument approach procedure and proceed to the destination airport by
visual reference to the surface. This approach will only be authorized when
requested by the pilot and the reported ground visibility at the destination
airport is at least 1 statute mile.
