National Organic Program - New program handbook!

http://www.ams.usda.gov/AMSv1.0/NOPProgramHandbook

From the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service:
"The goal of the Program Handbook is to provide those who own, manage, or certify organic operations with guidance and instructions that can assist them in complying with the National Organic Program (NOP) regulations. The Handbook includes two types of documents: 1) guidance, which provides interpretations of NOP statutory or regulatory requirements, and 2) instructions, which informs Accredited Certifying Agents (ACAs) and certified operations about best practices for conducting business related to certification, accreditation, international activities, and compliance and enforcement. It is our intention to expand this project over time by issuing draft guidance on additional topics, soliciting public comment, and finalizing new guidance for inclusion in the Handbook."
