Resumen

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is extending the public comment period from December 21, 1998, until February 4, 1999, on the proposed rule to amend the Regulations under FSA. The proposed changes would designate seeds of species listed in the Federal Noxious Weed Act (FNWA) as noxious in interstate commerce, add kinds to the list of those subject to the FSA, update the seed testing regulations, update the seed certification regulations, and correct several minor errors. This proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on October 20, 1998.
