National Organic Program - National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances (Crops and Processing) (US Agricultural Marketing Service Regulation) (AMS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the National Organic Program - National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances (Crops and Processing) (US Agricultural Marketing Service Regulation) (AMS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This final rule amends the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA's) National List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances (National List) to reflect a recommendation submitted to the Secretary of Agriculture (Secretary) by the National Organic Standards Board (NOSB) on October 18, 2012, and removes two previously expired substances. Consistent with the recommendation from the NOSB, this final rule adds biodegradable biobased mulch film to the National List with restrictive annotations. This action also adds a new definition for biodegradable biobased mulch film. This rule also removes two listings for nonorganic agricultural substances from the National List, hops (Humulus lupulus) and unmodified rice starch, as their use exemptions expired on January 1, 2013, and June 21, 2009, respectively. Two other substances that were recommended by the NOSB to the Secretary for addition to the National List, Citrus hystrix, leaves and fruit, and curry leaves (Murraya koenigii), have not been added to the National List based on comments received on the proposed rule.
