SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
2119 (7 U.S.C. 6518) of the Organic
Foods Production Act of 1990 (OFPA),
as amended (7 U.S.C. 6501 et seq.)
requires the establishment of the NOSB.
The purpose of the NOSB is to make
recommendations about whether a
substance should be allowed or
prohibited in organic production or
handling, to assist in the development
of standards for substances to be used in
organic production, and to advise the
Secretary on other aspects of the
implementation of the OFPA. The
NOSB met for the first time in
Washington, DC, in March 1992, and
currently has six subcommittees
working on various aspects of the
organic program. The committees are:
Compliance, Accreditation, and
Certification; Crops; Handling;
Livestock; Materials; and Policy
Development.
In August of 1994, the NOSB
provided its initial recommendations for
the NOP to the Secretary of Agriculture.
Since that time, the NOSB has
submitted 180 addenda to its
recommendations and reviewed more
than 357 substances for inclusion on the
National List of Allowed and Prohibited
Substances. The Department of
Agriculture (USDA) published its final
National Organic Program regulation in
the Federal Register on December 21,
2000, (65 FR 80548). The rule became
effective April 21, 2001.
In addition, the OFPA authorizes the
National List of Allowed and Prohibited
Substances and provides that no
allowed or prohibited substance would
remain on the National List for a period
exceeding five years unless the
exemption or prohibition is reviewed
and recommended for renewal by the
NOSB and adopted by the Secretary of
Agriculture. This expiration is
commonly referred to as sunset of the
National List. The National List appears
at 7 CFR Part 205, Subpart G.
The principal purposes of the NOSB
meeting are to provide an opportunity
for the NOSB to receive an update from
the USDA/NOP and hear progress
reports from NOSB committees
regarding work plan items and proposed
