Notice of 60-day Public Comment Period
The interim final rule for State Technical Committees was released and
is available for public comment until Jan. 26, 2009. The rule amended
requirements regarding the composition and responsibilities of these
advisory committees nationwide. The 2008 Farm Bill expands agricultural
and forestry involvement in the committees, expands the committees’
authority to review local working groups’ efforts to address state
program priorities, and requires the Secretary of Agriculture to
standardize committee operations nationwide.
