    AGENCY:

    ACTION:

    Notice of delay of effective date.

    SUMMARY:

    The Department is delaying the effective date of this rule. The Department previously delayed the effective date on March 30, 2009. More time is needed for the Forest Service to properly respond to the comments and to consider any potential changes to the rule. A Federal Register document will be published in the future that responds to the comments and sets the effective date. The rule regulates the sustainable free use, commercial harvest, and sale of special forest products and forest botanical products from National Forest System lands.

    DATES:

    Effective May 29, 2009, the effective date for the rule published at 73 FR 79367, December 29, 2008, and delayed at 74 FR 14049, March 30, 2009, is delayed indefinitely. Forest Service will publish notification in the Federal Register when an effective date is established.
