Hi Walter,

I have a question regarding what you wrote Sunday, May 28, 2000:

WE> While the new USDA organic standard is a significant improvement
WE> over their original disastrous proposal, there are some
WE> remaining problems that require citizen input to get fixed.

Yes, you mention a number of important points that need to be
corrected and / or clarified.

My question relates the the following:

WE> Whichever way you comment, be sure to refer to Docket Number
WE> TMD-00-02-PR2.

The docket number you give differs slightly from that provided on
the purefood.org websites you cite. They state that the docket
number is TMD-00-02-PR (without the 2). Which is correct? (Maybe I
should check the USDA/NOP site).

Thanks in advance.
