7 CFR Chapter VIII
RIN 0580-AB00
The role of USDA in differentiating grain inputs for ethanol
production and standardizing testing of the co-products of
ethanol production
AGENCY: Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration,
USDA.
ACTION: Advance notice of proposed rulemaking.
SUMMARY: We are inviting comments from producers, handlers,
processors, livestock feeders, industry representatives, and
other interested persons on the appropriate government role with
regard to differentiating grain attributes for ethanol
conversion, as well as standardizing the testing of co-products
of ethanol production,
commonly referred to as distillers grains. We have monitored the
development of this expanding industry and believe now is an
appropriate time to seek input from stakeholders in order to
foster collaboration among segments of this industry and support
the marketing of ethanol co-products.
DATES: We will consider comments that we receive by September
18, 2007.
