There are extensive Fed., State and Local requirements in place to prevent introduction/spread of invasive species. In fact, some regulations on genetically-modified crops can inhibit the growth of biofuel feedstock research. Task 2a refers to the methods by which introduction/spread of invasive species can be prevented (i.e., what precautions would help prevent a particular feedstock from becoming invasive). Task 2d refers to the collation of all of the available information on Fed, State and Local requirements to prevent the spread/introduction of invasive species.

2. The response time has been extended from 2:00pm Wednesday, December 8, 2010 to 2:00pm Thursday, December 9, 2010.

3. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.
