## Abstract

The U. S. Department of Agriculture ("Department") is amending several regulations, which make reference to RD Instruction 1940-J, Intergovernmental Review." This action is necessary since the affected regulations refer to RD Instruction 1940-J, which is being rewritten and replaced by RD Instruction 1970-I. The intended effect is to simplify and update the regulations and to ensure the Department's field offices have current guidance on intergovernmental review of proposed projects being reviewed pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act.
