I would be curious to know if there is anything FAS can do regarding the Taiwan MRLs. I'm still not sure I understand why they are different than CODEX, but it was clear on the tour that these values are having implications for what we export. Alex and Karissa cover our international issues so I'm looping them into the discussion as well. Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 12 ED 002061E 00002040-00003 Many thanks, Nancy Nancy B.

It was a fantastic learning experience, albeit an intense one! Gary and his team did an amazing job at putting together a great tour this year. All of you helped to make learning on this trip even more enjoyable. Below is my business card information that I meant to pass out on the tour. My particular office works with the federal government interagency team to resolve unnecessary or overly burdensome restrictions on U.S. agricultural exports. However, I am also in contact with other colleagues that offer export assistance such as export promotion or market intelligence. If you ever need any of our services, please do not hesitate to contact me. I wish all of you the best of luck in your future endeavors, and I hope our paths cross again someday.
