Subject: Extension of comment period

Yes, I know that there is a call out to end this thread but, in spite 
of that, I feel that you should know that the comment period will be 
extended for the ANPR on proposed revisions to the Q37 import 
regulations for nursery stock.  This is Docket no. 3-069-1, which was 
originally published on December 10, 2004.

The notice of a thirty-day extension, ending April 11th, will be 
published tomorrow in the Federal Register.  You can find it at:
http://www.aphis.usda.gov/ppd/rad/webrepor/ppq.html

I hope that many of you will take the extra opportunity to send in your 
comments.  Especially helpful will be clear reasoning supported by 
personal experience, written in a civil manner.  APHIS will respond to 
your concerns where they are clearly stated; they can't be expected to 
respond to a diffused general rant against government intrusion.

It would also be helpful to our cause to get the word to smaller 
nurseries and organizations, who either are not online, or are too busy 
with their livelihoods to keep up with regulatory matters.  However, 
since these regulations will matter to their businesses, please help 
them express their needs and concerns to APHIS.

Thanks -
Joyce
