Leonardo Academy has recently announced the launch of the second public comment and balloting period for the draft National Sustainable Agriculture Standard (LEO-4000). Because you have expressed an interest in being informed about the progress of LEO-4000, we are notifying you about the second public comment period and we invite you to submit comments on the revised draft. The second public comment period will close on May 18, 2015.
The standard has undergone significant streamlining based on comments received during the first public comment period, held in 2014, to make it more practical to use. In addition, public comments were instrumental in identifying several improvement opportunities. Finally, the committee identified specific ways to further streamline the standard to address the needs of small farms. The current version won overwhelming support from the committee, which recommended rerelease for a second round of comments.
If you would like to review the current draft standard and provide comments, please request a copy of the standard and a copy of the public comment form by responding to this email or by emailing agsta...@leonardoacademy.org.
If you have any questions please call Michael or Mary at 608-280-0255 or email us at micha...@leonardoacademy.org or ma...@leonardoacademy.org.
