Multilateral Development Banks
Environmental Advisor –
While this function is separate from 22 CFR 216 implementation
since it is performed under the requirements of the International
Financial Institutions Act, Title XIII and reviews environmental
impact assessments performed by multilateral development bank
projects, USAID uses the standards and experience of its 22
CFR 216 work and draws upon its environmental compliance officers for its investigations and recommendations for U.S. government positions on multilateral development bank loans.
Biosafety Review Advisor –
This function supports required USAID reviews of any proposal for research, testing or open release into the environment of bioengineered organisms (commonly referred to as GMOs or genetically modified organisms), as required under ADS 201.3.12.2(b), (scroll to page 65). This requirement applies to proposed activities in agriculture, human health and other purposes. These reviews must be conducted in advance of and used to inform preparation of the environmental impact analysis required by 22 CFR 216.
Note: ADS 211 Biosafety Procedures for Biotechnology Research, Testing, and Use is currently in draft and under review.
