| E7-13660 | Availability of an Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact for a Field Release to Produce Antibodies in Genetically Engineered Tobacco | Notice | We are advising the public that we have prepared an environmental assessment for a field release involving a transgenic tobacco line that has been genetically engineered to produce an antimicrobial antibody that binds to a bacterium (Streptococcus mutans) associated with tooth decay in humans. The purpose of this field release is to generate plant biomass from which the antibody will be extracted after harvest. The environmental assessment provides a basis for our conclusion that this field release will not present a risk of introducing or disseminating a plant pest and will not have a significant impact on the quality of the human environment. Based on its finding of no significant impact, we have determined that an environmental impact statement need not be prepared for this field release. | 2007-07-13 | 2007 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2007/07/13/E7-13660/availability-of-an-environmental-assessment-and-finding-of-no-significant-impact-for-a-field-release | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2007-07-13/pdf/E7-13660.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are advising the public that we have prepared an environmental assessment for a field release involving a transgenic tobacco line that has been genetically engineered to produce an antimicrobial antibody that binds to a bacterium (Streptococcus... |
