Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service March 29, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice announces the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service's intention to request an extension of approval of an information collection associated with regulations for the importation of artificially dwarfed plants.

This notice describes the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service's (APHIS) policy for responding to low-levels of regulated genetically engineered plant materials which may occur in commercial seeds or grain. This notice is intended to provide clarification for the public and developers of genetically engineered plants on APHIS' response to such situations. The policy statement does not confer any rights upon or create any rights for any person and does not operate to bind APHIS or the public, nor does it address how other Federal agencies might respond to such situations.
