March 5, 2021 Dear BRS Stakeholder, The U.S. Department of Agriculture is reopening the public review and comment period for an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) regarding whether to establish regulations for the movement of certain animals modified or developed using genetic engineering. On December 28, 2020, the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced the availability of the ANPR for a 60-day public review and comment period, which closed on February 26, 2021. APHIS and FSIS are reopening the comment period for 60 days to allow interested persons more time to prepare and submit comments. The ANPR can be accessed now on the News page of the APHIS Biotechnology Regulatory Services website. This notice may be viewed in the Federal Register. Comments will be accepted beginning Monday, March 8, through May 7, 2021, our online comment portal: https://www.regulations.gov/docket/APHIS-2020-0079/document.
