David -

I'm glad you are one of the 600 people on this
list who spoke up to add comments and views
on the CTTF.

All along I have stated that the report was
brilliant in that it solves the concerns of
scientists and regulators with responsilibity
for food biosafety yet it also allows compost tea
practitioners to proceed with all forms of compost
tea making, INCLUDING the ACT method.

It achieved what all sides were looking for.

When the report was presented to NOSB,
my contacts in attendance said that it was
well received and a fine example of how the
NOSB process should work.

If the NOSB/NOP process follows through with
the CTTF the implementation of compost teas in
the NOP will proceed. 

Letters of support to NOSB will help
move this forward.

It would therefore empower organic farmers
to use compost teas under NOP guidelines.

What have the two compost tea associations stated
about CTTF?   Do they have policy statements,
letters of support, points of concern or improvement?
