from The Scotts Company and
Monsanto Company following
withdrawal of their 2003 petition. Issues
to be addressed in the EIS include the
potential environmental impacts to
managed natural and non-agricultural
lands, agricultural production systems,
the physical environment, biological
resources, human health,
socioeconomics, federally listed
