Determinations of Nonregulated Status: Bayer CropScience LP Cotton Genetically Engineered for Insect Resistance and Herbicide Tolerance
Document ID: APHIS-2010-0102-0007
Document Type: Notice
Agency: Animal And Plant Health Inspection Service
We are advising the public of our determination that a genetically engineered cotton developed by Bayer CropScience LP, designated as TwinLink™ cotton (events T304-40 and GHB119), which has been genetically engineered to be tolerant to the herbicide glufosinate and resistant to several lepidopteran pests, is no longer considered a regulated article under our regulations governing the introduction of certain genetically engineered organisms. Our determination is based on our evaluation of data submitted by Bayer CropScience LP in its petition for a determination of nonregulated status, our analysis of available scientific data, and comments received from the public in response to our previous notice announcing the availability of the petition for nonregulated status and its associated environmental assessment and plant pest risk assessment. This notice also announces the availability of our written determination and finding of no significant impact.
