Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 71 / Thursday, April 15, 2021 / Notices
used in the Florida production area.
Another commenter questioned the
development of the ‘‘controlled
environment’’ definition, since
greenhouse production methods
represent a very small portion of the
tomatoes handled in Florida. Comments
also argued the proposed new
exemption and definition were not
reflective of production techniques used
outside of the production area and the
change would negatively impact
greenhouse tomatoes. Further, one
commenter stated shade-house
production differs significantly from
open-field tomato production, and that
the structures in Mexico are permanent
and provide a significant degree of
control over growing conditions and
warrant different treatment from openfield production.
Several commenters also expressed
that certain proposed changes were
inconsistent with the Act and outside
the scope of the Order.
After reviewing and considering the
comments received, the Agricultural
Marketing Service (AMS) has
determined there is little support for the
proposed changes and the rule to
modify the handling requirements for
tomatoes grown in Florida should not be
finalized. AMS intends to conduct
outreach with Florida tomato industry
stakeholders and consider whether
changes will be proposed in the future.
Accordingly, the proposed rule to
modify the handling requirements in the
Order that published in the Federal
Register on June 9, 2020, (85 FR 35222)
is hereby withdrawn.
We are reopening the
comment period for our notice
announcing the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service’s intention to
request a revision to and extension of
approval of an information collection
associated with the regulations to
prevent the introduction of gypsy moth
from Canada into noninfested areas of
the United States. We are taking this
action to allow interested persons the
opportunity to prepare and submit
comments.
