[SANET-MG] LLRIC601
The Bayer LLRICE601 USDA Extension Petition on the USDA/APHIS website is 
85 pages long. About 10 pages deal with administration . Off the 
remaining 72 pages 25 pages are all or nearly completely blank , 
designated CBI.  The earlier petition on rice was much longer and had no 
pages designated CBI. The areas designated CBI are the areas of the DNA 
sequence allowing independent measurements. As well the earlier test 
sites for LLRICE601 appear to all have been designated CBI as were the 
trial results. In previous petitions USDA has not allowed such crude use 
of CBI. Bayer and its lawyers seem to have gone CBI berserk but USDA  
did not have to allow them that insult to the public. It is nearly 
impossible to make any judgment about the rice and its contamination due 
to the cloud of CBI.. More disturbingly, USDA seems to be a 
co-conspirator in withholding  essential information from the world. sadly
