Currently U.S. 숫자 룰렛 standards do not exist for either wild-caught or farm-raised fish. However, the숫자 룰렛 Foods Production Actdoes include seafood, making the creation of 숫자 룰렛 standards possible. In response to growing interest and pressure to develop standards, the National 숫자 룰렛 Program (NOP) created an Aquatic Working Group (AWG) in 2005 composed of knowledgeable members of the aquaculture and 숫자 룰렛 communities. AWG worked to create a report that would inform NOSB the creation of a recommended standard. Upon receipt of the AWG report, the NOSB Livestock Committee developed standards for 숫자 룰렛 aquaculture and released formal recommendations in 2007, 2008, and 2009.
In May of 2012, the National 숫자 룰렛 Program announced in amemothat they expected this rulemaking process for aquaculture to take place “over the next two years.” In anticipation of this rulemaking, NOP received a number of petitions for substances to be added to theNational List of Allowed and Prohibited Substances(National List) for use in 숫자 룰렛 aquaculture. Because these petitioned substances must be reviewed by the NOSB, NOP asked NOSB to review the petitioned substances for potential addition to the National List. The document formally asks NOSB to review the petitions about what substances might be allowed under the program.
In spring 2014, NOSB released several recommendations addressing the petitioned materials. The recommendations were tabled in response to public comments that unanimously asked that a vote on the materials be tabled until aquaculture standards are released.
