In that notice, we indicated to the public that the petition, a draft environmental assessment, and a plant pest risk assessment were available on the Internet, in our Agency reading room, and from the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Due to an Agency oversight, an incorrect version of the Pioneer petition was originally posted on the Internet for review and comment. With this notice, we are advising the public that the correct version of the petition has been posted and is available for review and comment. We are also extending the comment period for the petition, the draft environmental assessment, and the plant pest risk assessment in order to provide the public a full 60 days to consider the petition for determination of nonregulated status and the supporting documents associated with that petition. This action will allow interested persons additional time to prepare and submit comments. After the comment period closes, APHIS will review all written comments received during the comment period and any other relevant information. All public comments received regarding the petition and draft environmental assessment will be available for public review. After reviewing and evaluating the comments on the petition, draft environmental assessment, and other data, APHIS will furnish a response to the petitioner, either approving or denying the petition. APHIS will then publish a notice in the Federal Register announcing the regulatory status of Pioneer’s 305423 soybean and the availability of APHIS’ written decision.
